New to MFP

My, oh my.....middle ages are slowly creeping up on me, and my metabolism is is flipping its big middle finger my way.
35 Years Old
195 Pounds
5' 6"

Of course, the 195 pounds is after finally taking my health serious about a year ago, when I weighed closer to 220lbs, had bad cholesterol and high blood pressure.

Now, after dropping the 25 pounds, getting my cholesterol and blood pressure in check, I am now aiming for the "cosmetic" weight.......at least 10-20 more pounds so that I might actually get rid of the "love handles", lose the last little bit of my second chin, and actually gain some decent definition to this unshapely anthropomorphic body of mine.

After reading many of the forums, I love the support and advice that this website and its participants offer, and would be more than happy to mutually cheer one another on towards our goals.

Feel free to throw me a friend request, and I will gladly accept.
