Introduction Text Hello SparkFriends! Originally I am a New England boy. Born and lived in Massachusetts for about 40 years. Decided to move out west about 7 years ago. I love it here in San Francisco, the weather, the views, the people--fantastic!~ Too bad I brought my fat personality with me! At this point in my life I'm going for a lifestyle change - not another diet. I think I'm in the right boat here at SparkPeople.com. Just started putting this page together. Will be adding more to the photo gallery later...

Starting weight 300, goal weight 150 Goal: To become healthy and more comfortable.

Right now I am learning what I need to do, however, I know one important aspect to meeting my goals is to create small achievable goals (that are still a stretch) and follow through with them. They may not even directly relate to weight loss, however, in changing the mind I hope the body will follow :)

Favorite Book: Too many to mention. Favorite Movie: Too many again, but will mention a comedy I really liked (we all need a little laughter in our lives), "Overboard" with Goldie Hawn and Kurt Russell. Love to cook, love my pets (dog and cat), my friends (miss the ones from back east, though), enjoy my job as a medical technologist, like to travel but haven't done much since my move out west, also like to kayak (not rapids!) but again haven't done much lately. Partly the weight holds me back from doing alot of physical and social things I would like to do...can anyone relate? haha.
