Just joined this group, so I figured I'd introduce myself.

I've been trying to loose weight (again) for about a year now. So far I have lost about 80 pounds (50 with MFP), and have about 45 left to go before I reach my goal weight. I have struggled with my weight since my late teens due to medication that didn't help some already unhealthy lifestyle choices. I previously did the South Beach Diet in my late teens/early twenties and lost nearly all my weight (all but ten pounds), stopped the diet and gained it all back, plus some, and unfortunately haven't been able to loose it again since. But I'm not giving up this time, and not being on that medication any more has helped immensely.

I am 28, obviously single, never had a boyfriend, and have been asked out only once in my life..... so I figured this would be a good group to join.
