My reason for joining is very simple. I am in poor health. High BGL where I never had a problem before; dangerously high blood pressure. I need help and hope to use the tools here to keep myself honest in my diet and exercise regime.

This is not a one off thing. A diet is not something temporary you do to just go back to the old lifestyle later on. It must be sustainable!!

I first dieted when I was ten. I have always had this constant battle. I get rid of the weight then it comes back - only for it to take longer to get rid of next time.

I played sports. Worked out 6 days a week at the gym. Yet over the past 4 years it has come back again, demonstrating that I must be vigilant.

I must put my health first or I won't be around for my wife and kids. I can't have that!!
