Nice to meet you, I'd love support so I can help support you back

The name is Matt, I'm 36 and very unhealthly. I want to change my life around. I eat anything I want, I don't work out, and I drink way too many diet cokes.

I work at camps, so I do walk abit but thats just not enough. Its time for me to be the one in control of my body and my health.

I want to start working out, do yoga, stop drinking diet cokes and use more tea and lemon water.

What I need help with.... What are some good basic stretches, a good simple yoga work out, I need someone to remind me diet coke is killing me, and I'd love to find some research on other healthy things to drink.

Today is my first day really using this website. I'm 100% ready and excited to start this!

    MATT! I'm so excited you're here, man. You're part of a group of people who are inspired and dedicated to meet their goals! I, myself, am around 200lbs away form my goal (and I'm very determined to hit my GW) and am excited to have you on my friends list.

    I'm going to add you, and I'm excited to have another brother-in-arms to achieve a healthier life!

    Keep it real and keep it going!

    Great to meet you! I just joined-again! I'm afraid I can't really help you yet as I need to learn to help myself before I'm helpful to others. I love chocolate and pizza and diet coke far, far too much and I have zero willpower lol. So far today I've just been drinking water when a craving kicks in.

    I know what you mean, I do better when I know other people are suffering along with me :)
