in Introduce Yourself
Hello all!

I am joining officially as of June 1st, at 230 pounds. My goal for now is 175 pounds.

I am very happy to be here. I have been searching for a solid weight loss tool that I can use in my own way. MFP is fantastic!

I intend to be not only a user, but a contributor as well. I spent last night familiarizing myself with everything and how it all works. I am blown away!

I retroactively put in what I ate yesterday. I am a little red-faced to tell you that I exceeded my goal calories by 1,072! Of course, I didn't know I would find this tool yesterday. And, isn't that what it's about? Finding out what bad choices we make and how to make better ones.

SO - today starts my journey. I have read so many success stories, and look forward to having my own to tell.

Thanks to everyone for being my inspiration to change my life!

I have 120 lbs to lose. 10 lbs gone so far, lots more to go, but with the tools and support we have on this site, I have no doubt that I (we!) can do it !!!
