Third Time is a Charm?

I'm Eric, back to MFP for the third time, and really need any help I can get. I know what needs done and cannot make any excuses, and essentially I will have to watch my food intake and need to exercise "TilMyLastDay." I live in Pittsburgh and am looking to retire from my federal law enforcement position within 4-7 years, and need to learn alternative ways to deal with stress.

You've heard it all before. I welcome any new friends and hope to reciprocate with friendship and support.
