Hey there, folks
Been awhile since I've been on the forums..been on and off for years. A little bit about me: Becoming active and physically fit has changed my life. I used to be your typical stereotype nerd/gamer. I stayed up all night, slept all day, was overweight, and lacked any and all motivation to improve myself in the real world. I…

Places to stay in NYC..
Me and a couple friends are tryna take a trip up to NYC from the 31st until Sept 3rd. I can't seem to find any good deals on hotels that are close enough to walk and see time square, central park, etc. Anyone know any good not expensive places? There's 6 of us

Bought a HRM
it's a watch..and not a super expensive one. I was longboarding down the boardwalk for 11minutes and had burned like 120 calories. Does this seem a bit much to anyone? I mean I was sweating a little, but I wasn't drenched and I didn't feel like I was working all that hard. I feel like if I can burn that many just doing…

Seeing abs!!
I'm as close as I've ever been today! I weighed up on the scale at 171.8 (post workout) but I'm starting to REALLY see my abs! I've been working my butt off (literally..I used to have a giant butt) and although I was seeing results, I've reached a new high today. Hard work DOES pay off, I can't wait for these next couple…

3 months into it
I didn't start getting really serious until about a little over a month ago..but at that point most of the weight I've dropped had already happened. I know I'm building muscle as I've been hitting the weights a lot more, but I'm still kinda disapproving of the scale not moving much. Some days I look better than others but…

Kind of lost track of it today..
I'd been trying to eat frequently throughout the day and smaller portions (you know..the usual) but today I wasn't really all that hungry and just forgot about it. I realized at about 830pm that I was under by over 1,000 calories so I decided I was going to have something I hadn't had in a loonngg time (used to get it…

Any advice/motivation/answers?
Stats: 21years old - 5'8 - 175-180lbs. Alright..I decided to finally get the "beach body" I'd always told myself I was capable of. I left a lifestyle of going out to eat at Hooters 4 or 5 nights a week/fast food daily and started eating much cleaner/healthier and only drinking water(which I thought alone would have me…
