New to the site, just wanting to say hello!

Hello there everyone on the MFP website! Cheesy starter, no?

Haha. Just seen this and figured that since I was new, I might aswel give myself a proper introduction. My name is Conall and i'm 28 years old, most of the information can be found on profile, so it'll save you guys awhole lot of reading unless you want too, lol. I'm basically another overweight person that's been battling with obesity most of their life and I vouched that this year, is going to be the year that I make the changes and finally do something about this. Currently my goal is to lose ALOT of weight, as i'm a big guy so, if you're a similar person with such goals and ambitions or perhaps just curiously wanting to follow, send me a friend request and let's help each other, keep each other motivated! Look forward to meeting some more lovely people on here. :)

    Glad to have you on here! I love MFP!! I love the support and motivaton I get from all the AWEOME people on here.
    I started at over 400 pounds and still have over 200 pounds to lose, so feel free to add me.

    I log daily and comment often. I'm a bit of a goober and I hit wrong buttons all the time so you will at least get a few good laughs out of being my friend! :D
