in Introduce Yourself
Well, what to say? I'm 41 years old and 265 pounds. I carry it fairly well, but I have the proverbial spare tire. I find myself a soon-to-be-bachelor and needing to make myself more marketable. I go to the gym and do some light lifting and heavy cardio 2x @ day/3x + @ week. My goal is 210. I eat lots of fruits and have cut way down on the empty calorie intake. Any suggestions?

    I'm not sure what you mean by "more marketable"? You mean "more attractive to the kind of woman/man I would like to be in a relationship with"?

    A lot of fruit isn't always the way to go. It's usually pretty high in sugar. I know the sugars are natural, but so are other nasty things. Add in more veggies and keep kicking butt.

    I think that personal grooming is more important than your actual physique because people go for such different things. I'd be thinking of clean teeth, fresh breath, no body odour, clean clothes and shoes rather than body fat percentage. I think exercise keeps you positive though, and you'll need somewhere to work off those calories from wining and dining.
