Hi from South Africa

I think I will introduce myself best by providing some history behind my reason for joining this site. When I was at school I enjoyed doing sports more than I enjoyed a fine education, and ended up doing a lot of different sports which kept me quite fit. Long distance running was my most prized sport, which resulted in me having a skinny built body, people kept telling me that I need to put on some weight, so I did...I picked up quite a lot of weight actually.
Right after my school life ended, I was injected to the family business of fast food. It was hard hours, long shifts and no weekends. But lots of conveniently available food at a discounted price. After working in the fast food business for years, my weight went from 63kg to 104kg. At only 1.73 meters, I do not feel comfortable at all. I am motivating myself to get back into training and to get on a healthy diet, while using this app and site to get inspired. So feel free to add me.
