in Introduce Yourself
:smooched:
My name is Daniel Im 45 and single after recently being told by my Ex that she wanted a dovorce. Working out was my way of reacting intially to keep me busy and focused on rebuilding my life. I was married for 7 years. Getting fit was the most possitive thing I should have done and I am glad I made the decision to quit smoking start working out and cycling. It change my whole life and it really is good for me.
I love this site its what I need to track everthing to get more fit . I have lost 38 pounds and gained 2 inches in diameter in my forearms and biceps and 3 inches in my neck. I have only been working out for 6 mmonths and have lost 2% body fat which is awesome if i must say!!!!:tongue: . I am very focused on my workouts and learn thinks new everyday from other people at the gym. If you need any advice maybe I can help you because I do have a medical background and have learned alot recently.

Remember stay focused stay motivated and never :noway: give up any goals you have in life!:bigsmile:

Daniel

    Hi Daniel

    Welcome to MFP.

    Sorry to hear about your divorce, but having been in that situation myself, I like to believe that all things happen for a reason and you will come out a stronger person, and gradually find someone who deserves you. Its true what they say, time is a great healer

    Well done on your transformation and giving up the dreaded weed. Keep up the good work :drinker:

    That is great that you have taken a negitive expereince and used for strength to achieve a positive goal. You are worth it. I too have achieved a loss of 70lbs today and have thrown away negative beleifs about myself. I have wellness backround with breakthrough products. Even a weightloss certification yet was way overwieght. I now feel I can say it with integrity. : ) Have a blessed and prosperous day!
