Here goes nothing.
My name is Bill, I'll be 54 this July, married but separated for 4 years now. I'm 6'-8" and I've always struggled with my weight. I'm not your average tall, basketball build type. Current weight is somewhere just below 240 (as of 4/1). Recently joined a gym and hired a trainer. Not sure if she's trying to kill me or train me.
I've never counted calories or really measured my portions, just cut back on the amount. So this is all new to me.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
