After coming home from Florida at Christmas time, I was a wreck. I couldn't stand myself anymore. I am 5'10 and was likely tipping in at around 235 and it was all in the upper body, I turn 35 this year and I am a "ah hem" smoker. I am trying to quit that damn habit but I am working on the weight first. I started going to the gym in January, I got a 6 month pass for the price of 3 so what the heck. I am one of those characters who feels if I pay for something I am going to use it so the gym was a great idea. I have been going three days a week for about an hour each time, combining weights and cardio (more weights than cardio, it's so damn boring that cadio thing) but I have lost a good 25 pounds of flab. The man boobs have gone, got a nice tight chest starting, arms are getting bigger, slowly but surely, I can see my....toes, yeah that's it, my toes again and I can see my belt without having to roll up my belly to see where the hole is...LOL. I dropped two, almost three belt holes as well.

Keep up the great work everyone!!

I do feel so much better than ever, kind of like when I was a teen...and I am getting good compliments which I haven't got for 20 years! Makes ya feel great
