Hello to All:
I'm the guy who has lost about 500 lbs, but, its always the same 5 or 10 lbs over and over again! Can ya relate?
Anyway, I'm 53, "morbidly obese" (what a charming title!) and hoping that I'll be able to drop 100 lbs over the next year. OK, I'm wildly optimistic but, I was in the Air Force many years ago and they taught me to aim high. If I'm successful with weight loss this time around, it will be because there are a lot of people in the same boat who can relate to what we're dealing with.
One thing that really irks me is folks who have a massive metabolism and nothing that they eat seems to stick. By the same token, I do not understand people who do not like to eat. I mean, how can you not like to eat?
I look forward to electro-meeting you all.
best,
Markja
