    I'd say more than half the battle. It takes a lot for someone to admit they need a life style change.

    Welcome back!

    Yes, you have to get started to get to the finish line :smile:

    Reading your profile, you and I seem a lot alike. I love food!!! I don't mind working out but the food gets me every time.

    Sending a friend's request now.

    That's what I thought also when I was your age. It's true life gets a lot more complicated as the years go on, better, yet still complicated and with a very, very busy schedule, a spouse, kids, aging parents etc,,, Just to find time and energy is a big deal when it's usually given to others. I don't think you'll be so snarky in 20 yrs.
