It's true, obesity is an epidemic in this country. But getting in shape has many rewards, and it can be done at any age with a little discipline. I made a rewarding lifestyle transformation in the space of one year or so with a combination of serious and consistant weighlifting, a healthier diet of home cooked meals daily, and some cardio every week. I dropped from 190 lbs. and nearly 30% body fat, more or less completely out of shape, with a gut, eating junk food and feeling like crap every day... to today, 145 lbs, much more muscular, dare I say close to ripped at less than 6% body fat, and finally sporting a defined 'six pack'. I feel and am told, I look like a new person at age thirty-seven.

Being more active was the main reason that I haven't read or posted in this forum for almost one year because I spent more time away from browsing and chatting online. That and filming and editing porn like crazy for a half dozen different companies! Guess I am back now, there is more biz to get done, but I gotta limit GFY surfing to 30 minutes or so per day! If anyone, wants some fitness or healthy cooking advice, just ask, I learned a lot in a year and think I am nearly qualified to be a physical trainer and nutritionist now. :)
