A friend of mine on this site has challenged me to lose weight. I have accepted and off we go....
Been dealing with weight since I was 8. Up and down. And I have tried every program, commercial or otherwise. But at the end of the day, I know what I should do and how to do it. Motivation and support has always been my biggest problem. I mean, hey, sometimes I just feel okay being 300lbs+. Married with 2 boys, I don't have to impress anyone right? I've pretty much had enough. The guy in the mirror p*sses me off. Reading about men my age dying of heart attacks is horrible. And I want to see my boys grow up to be great men. So it starts here and now.
Hello Kids. I'm Touchdown and I am a food-a-holic.

Welcome... Good for you to decide you want to change. This site is great for helping you understand what you do well and what you've been doing wrong with your food. It's also great for support, motivation and inspiration if you have positive "friends". Feel free to add me if you want... I enjoy being a cheerleader for my friends' progress.0
