Hi everyone, my name is Michael. I've used MyFitnessPal before but never access the community section and am giving it a try. I'm starting a new lifestyle and need to lose weight or my Dr. says I'll need to go on statins or other medication I don't really want to be on. I've heard social support is a key to losing weight and maintaining a healthy lifestyle. I'm hoping to "meet" some people out there on the same path.
