    Ross -

    Welcome aboard, and get prepared for a wild ride. MFP is a great tool and there are a lot of wonderful people on the site. I've dieted off and on my whole life, and I've learned more about myself and nutrition the last 5 months on MFP then in all the years before.

    Just take it one day at a time and remember this is a marathon not a sprint.

    I am running for a charity called Rainbow Valley, they aim to give people affected by cancer the choices of how they fight the disease and help compliment hospital treatment.

    In your profile you can see the ticker. Below you have options to change/install it.
