Hello everyone! I'm Ron and 28 years old
Just to make a long story short. I was always a ore thicker child and at the age of 15/16 I shot up to a little over 400 pounds. Lost more than half of it in a little over two years. As of 2012 I was going through personal issues that lead to emotional eating. I reached about a good 280, Lost some of it and now iI'm down to 235. I would love to loose about 30 to 40 pounds and wanted to try more of a new, fun, modern way of doing so. So I decided to join "My Fitness pal. And Shall I say. II'm already HOOKED! Haha ❤ I never really met or connected With anyone that was as dedicated about fitness or struggled with their weight like I have ..besides My partner of 5/6 months..so I also would love to meet others who are on the same journey as me. Its not easy at all going through any lifestyle change. But it'll all be worth it in the end. And nothing is better than going tthrough that journey with ppl you can relate with! It really is a LIFETIME struggle, so we must ALL try to figure out ways that'll make it just a little bit more easier/fun for us. I hope to either gain that "fun" and "easy" by joining this ..or maybe just to add a little fun and eazy to other ppl's lives .. Dont be scared to speak,I'm a pretty cool, down to earth, artistic fun man whose FULL of humanity! *I won't bite* (at least you give me a cup cake) hahaha! Dont be afraid to ask for any tips or help as well!
