Checking in from sunny florida

stahlight

Hello all,

checking in from Naples, Florida (in the southwest side of the state across from Miami). It's time for me to lose some weight and get in shape. :bigsmile:

Goals: lose 60 lbs of fat (or get to 12% bodyfat or less -- i dont have an exact number on pounds of fat in me, but its too many)

Goals 2: make exercise an integral part of my life to maintain weight loss.

Benefits: a faster car (60 lbs can translate to 0.1 seconds in a drag race, which i occasionally do) and who doesn't want to look good? :blushing:

Welcome & Goodluck. :happy: I'm sure this site will be great help to you! I've been using it for two weeks and dropped a good few pounds already.
I'm also in Florida not far from Orlando. I'm not a native though. I'm a Brit
