I joined MFP a couple of weeks ago and have been really encouraged by reading the message boards. I am from NC, married to a wonderful woman and have 2 beautiful daughters. I have struggled with weight since my teens. Recently took a step down from an extremely stressful job in which I gained quite a bit of weight. It's time to take control of my life, get this weight off, and get in shape. Like most everyone here, I need friends to help motivate me. :smile:
