HI I'm Kevin. 46 years old from the Chicago area. I'm finally looking for accountability and help. I've been screwing around with MFP for a few months with limited success. Mostly because I have not gotten serious.

I'm on meds for high chlolesteral and blood pressure. I had a nasty smokeless tobacco habit I gave up 60 days ago and now I'm trying to get serious about the rest of my health.

I'm looking to lose 85 lbs and am currently at 286 and 6 ft tall.

I'd like to add some friends on MFP for support. I've got a beautiful wife of 25 years and two great kids, 17 and 14 that I would like to stick around for!

    You can do it! I started getting serious about my weight and health 5 years ago at the age of 45. I'm now faster,stronger and healthier than i've ever been in my life and only getting better
