I recently got married to a beautiful woman who loves me very much as I am, but I made a promise to myself after the honeymoon so I am here to keep it. I am a former amateur martial arts fighter and have always been in good shape but am not happy with how I feel now. I have a very stressful job as a CFO and although I workout 4-5 times a week religiously I have been eating like crap the past year and drink often in the evenings to manage the stress and cut the edge. Its not so much I don't like how I look because I actually carry/hide my weight well but I just carry more body fat than what makes me feel comfortable. I don't need big muscles or to be ripped (as I carry my ego elsewhere), but I do want to feel comfortable with my shirt off, or in a shirt for that matter and how I feel when I do agility style exercises. I just feel "OUT OF SHAPE and fluffy", and its because I just flat out carry to much body fat. I truthfully want to get to 170 lbs so my plan is to get to 165 and recover to 170.

I will be here daily to hold myself accountable and will offer as much support as I can to anyone that needs it and look forward to meeting others and developing a support system :)
