Hello everyone! I'm back again after not logging for almost 6 months and gaining 25lbs :-0
Just joined a 10lb weight loss challenge and hoping to be in a better place by my 30th birthday at the end of Feb! I'm looking for fellow My Fitness Pal peeps to follow so that my news feed shows a little more variety and keeps up motivation all around!

    Hi my name is Ed & I don't have hardly any friends on here & am trying to find new friends on My Fitness Pal with same interests. I ended up taking the plunge after years of low carb dieting & eventually got to a point where it didn't work for me anymore & by the plunge I'm talking about having the gastric bypass done , use to feel that that was like cheating until I got to a certain point & decided it was the only way .
    So now about 6 1/2 months later I'm around a 133 lbs lighter (355lbs day of surgery) hitting the gym about 3 days a week so far . I DO NOT REGRET IT ONE BIT , GLAD I WENT THROUGH WITH IT :-)
    What's that 10lb weight loss challenge your doing ? I got faith in ya I know you can do it ;-)

    Hey thanks guys!! Ed it's a challenge offered by a community fitness studio here in Edmonton that is like a 50/50 draw. Everyone who signs up pays $20 and if you complete the challenge by the end date you get your name entered in a draw to win half of the money and the other half goes to a local charity. It's great motivation to stick with it!
