Hello all. Decided to give MFP a shot after it was recommended to me by a friend. I am looking to lose 50 lbs. This seems like a tall order, considering that I have a 12 hour a day desk job. I guess this is the reason why I need some motivational friends on here to help me on this journey.

    Hi Tyr and team. Feel free to add me as well. 52 to lose. As of today, i have lost 16.6 since the beginning of the year. 35.5 to go. I know it will take consistency to get there. And i think a few supportive friends on a similar journey would really help.
