Hi all,
New here and on my way to dropping 72 pounds to get to my goal weight. I am a guitarist (though engineering pays the bills), and not only do I want my stage appearance to be more appropriate, but I think it will improve my playing as the guitar will be at a better ergonomic angle if my gut is no longer pushing it away.
My plan is a mix of strength training (Starting Strong Lifts 5x5 tonight with my daughter) and a few days of cardio per week. Hoping that MFP will help me ensure my calories are on point.
Feel free to add me, I could use some accountability and motivation.
