Not really a newcomer.

Returning user, with more on my plate than before (not food though).

I've fought battles with weight, addiction, etc. I'm partway through the journey of self improvement that will last throughout my life. Hoping that that changes I'm making will improve it.

No one here gets out alive... Not a dark statement, a fact. The destination for this "mortal coil" is predetermined. What paths I choose to take on that journey are not. I'm not going to expand on a lot of that until I get to the diary portion of things, whereupon I will ruminate, probably get wordy, trade cheap shots, tell off color jokes and occasionally, even write about some real stuff. Be forewarned!

Okay, stats and general info.
56 Y/O male, currently about 278lbs, 6 feet 6 inches tall.
Previous max weight, 400lbs in 2018.
Diabetic, type 2. Recovering alcoholic & addict.
More will be revealed when I fire up a diary.

Thank you all in advance for welcoming me in!

Welcome (back) to the forum Tall Tood (unless you want to be called something else). Looks like you've done a lot of self improvement already: I look forward to cheering you on for the next lap.

Hey Tall Tood, welcome back!

I've fought battles with weight, addiction, etc. I'm partway through the journey of self improvement that will last throughout my life. Hoping that that changes I'm making will improve it.

I could say much the same, as I suppose many others here could. Good to have someone aboard who understands our problems.

I am looking forward to reading your diary and following your progress.
