Hello fellow users.

I am Andy, and live in the South of England. I am relatively new to Social Media and Fitness as a whole. I joined My Fitness Pal as a means document my and track my calorific intake, exercise. I am hoping that by seeing the data , it will make me accountable. I have struggled with weight loss and maintaining a regular exercise regime in the past. But as I am fast approaching 40yrs old I find myself at an empass. Carry on as I am or make changes to benefit myself.

I hope to find others to support me and encourage me on this journey.

    I'm a gentle giant really, unless I get really angry (that doesn't happen often)

    If I add you, will you be my angry bodyguard then? It's okay, you can just pretend you're angry.

    Do you need a bodyguard? It's all about looking big and scary, that's usually enough to put them off. I might even take a bullet for you, Kevin Costner style.

    I might hold you to that bullet comment. You can add me if you want.
