Just joined up and am starting a new cleaner, healthier lifestyle.
Looking for the missing ingredient......MOTIVATION!!
I am a 36 yr old male from Wpg, Canada, who is sick and tired of being sick and tired.(i know you have heard this before)
Last year I was an in shape hard working 5' 11" 240 lb father. After an ankle operation in Nov. I have put on 40+ lbs of fat!! This is due to inactivity and really poor diet.
Well this ends now!!
Hoping I can find some "friends" on here to help me stay motivated in this process.

Hi, welcome and how are you finding it so far?
Do you have a plan of action?0 -
Hey there, thanks for the reply...
So far just reading over the posts and topics and getting settled in.
As far as a plan of attack...
I am going to be reducing calorie intake to about 2000 a day.
As far as cardio goes I am limited to riding bike and going to the local pool.
I will be doing basic full body exercises for the first bit, then move on to light/med weight high reps.0
