Oh! That was 47 years ago today. I was in the Marines and weighed all of 145 pounds. The weight came slowly, then I quit smoking 16 years ago and it took off, before I knew it I was pushing 260 and in poor health. I found MFP completely by accident and decided to give it a try. I normally check in on Sunday, stepped on the scale this morning and weighed in at 240, so it's a great day all around. By the way I married gram09200 who complained that she was being harassed when she introduced herself. While I do not post much there my never be a post from her.:happy:

    Welcome, and congratulations on your anniversary.
    I'm so sorry you wife was hurt. Please encourage her to give posting a try again. I'm sure nobody meant to be negative towards her. Any advice given by MFPers is given to help, not to bring each other down.

    Thanks everyone. My wife wasn't being harassed by the MFP'ers. She was just being harassed by me to join the site. She probably still won't post but she's doing great.

    When I reread your first post I see where we all misunderstood. That's a good lesson for us, we thought we had done something wrong.....:laugh:
