55 and taking action to reverse my direction!

Hi all! Spent 26 years in the Air Force and retired smoking 4 packs a day. Quit 5 years later, got cancer 2 years later, and went through surgery. Weight shot up to 209 from eating anything and everything. Drew a line in the sand on March 17, 2016 and started exercising. Painful? You bet. I think I invented new curse words too! Waist was 46" and I'm 6 feet tall. Weighed in today at 174.4. Happy to have found this site and to continue this journey to be the best "me" that I know is in there!
