Hello, and thank you MFP!

My name is Robert, and I've been using MFP for a few years now.

When I began my journey, I was 275lb @ 5' 11" and super depressed. I had been this heavy for many years, I had just gotten a divorce after 14 years of marriage. I was tired of looking the way I did, I was tired of having no self confidence, and not even knowing what it was like to enjoy a healthy fitness activity. I used to make fun of athletes and runners all the time.

Using MFP helped me to learn so much about food, nutrition and what I had really been putting in my body for most of my life, MFP helped me lose 95lbs in 1 year.

I can't say enough about MFP and how a free app has helped me make such a drastic change in my life. How much confidence it has given me, how much better of a father and a person I am now.

This is my first of many forum posts here. I just wanted to say thanks, and wanted to offer anything I could back to the community. Anyone can do this!!!

I'm still learning, I'm still heading toward my goals and I still log my food every day using MFP.
