Hey guys,
I have been using MFP off and on for a while now but three weeks ago I really sat down and decided to commit to a healthier lifestyle. For the majority of my life I was overweight due to poor eating habits at home, but come high school i cracked down and lost 20 lbs. Since then I have been fairly active and in decent shape until university came along and packed ten pounds on me. I'm 5-6 and 145 lbs, not looking to lose a ton of weight, just looking to tone up and adopt healthier eating habits. One of my biggest lifestyle changes has been cutting out all processed foods from my diet, and I feel a million times healthier since making that change.
Anyways, I'm open to friend requests from anyone who needs support or is willing to give it, but my goals are centered around a healthy lifestyle and toning up as opposed to quick and massive weight loss.
Good luck to everyone!
