My wife and I started this weight loss journey together, to get healthier for our Kids and ourselves. I seen within my own family how being over weight affects your health. I have had friends who have died from heart attacks and other stuff related to bad eating. That's why it is important to have a support structure, either at home or online with like minded people. If you are looking for a active and motivating person then please add me. So we all can take this journey together and fight this weigh loss battle together

    So true Matt. It only took me 20 years to figure that out! So lucky to have MFP! I am lucky to have you as my MFP! Anyone serious about motivation and support can add me too. Thanks Matt!

    Sorry to hear about your family Matt! I know how you feel, and i'm only 22.

    My nan died of a heart attack because her arteries were clogged up. Ever since my mum has been worried about me warning not to over do the crisps like my nan did. It wasn't until I had a doctors appointment later in July that I decided that I needed to make a change in my life.

    MFP is a really helpful app with a fantastic community that helps motivate you to keep active and eat well! Having my diary up and available for friends to see encourages me to eat below my calorie account as i'd feel too embarrassed to go over!

    Feel free to add me if you'd like :) It's great you and your wife are doing this together! It gives you that added extra support.

    Natty
