in Introduce Yourself
Hey! I just signed up! My wife filled her profile out last night so, now it's my turn. I've been feeling really gross lately. I've got to make a change. Today is day one for changing my life. We will be hitting the store for some groceries. I intend to go paleo/modified for awhile staying within my calorie allowance. The truth is, I could probably lose weight just by exercising. I eat like crap without exercising already. It's a wonder I'm not the size of a house. I want to change what I put into my body and change my lifestyle. I want to cut back on the industries chemicals and see what mother nature can do for me. I want that glow back!! So starting now, exercising will come first...tv and video games last. Baby steps! So here I go, baby steps to the kitchen to fill up my huge water bottle. Friend me and let's do this together! :-)

    Best of luck! It is true you could exercise and maintain your diet and probably lose. But the opposite is actually more efficient. Diet is a much more effective than exercise, but both together will certainly put you on the fast track. Good choice with Paleo btw! Primal Body, primal mind, is a great paleo book that I'd recommend to anyone interested in the paleo-ish lifestyle.

    Thanks for letting me know about the book! That title sounds familiar, I'll look into it.
