C'mon, You know you wanna read this (Noob here)

MFP Land!!!!!! Happy 4th of July to all my American friends. Happy Belated Canada Day to my Canadien buds. And Happy.....ummm, Wimbledon Day to my British chaps. Sorry, not up to date on my British holidays ;).

Anywhozzle, this is me! Steve. Or Jumbo, Scuba, or *kitten*, depending on who you may be hanging out with when they are shouting at me. I was in peak physical condition in high school, then ran into a small drug problem that led to an eating problem, and now I am here, 6 1/2 years and 150 pounds heavier. America's birthday seems just as fine a day as any to grant myself independence from unhealthy living and terrible food choices. If there are any gnarly dudes or amazing ladies that want to hop on this crazy train to thinness, well by golly, hit that "send friend request" button. Lets sing loud and proud as we do it, too. Ain't no reason to go down quietly.

I wanna have fun while doing this, so if you are ready to laugh, cry, be scared, run screaming, or throw virtual pillows at me, I am your country boy. Not to be confused with a cowboy. Just country, baby. Peace, love, and happiness, friends. See you on the flip side!!
