Husband bought me a gym set. How do I start?
Good morning! Last night my husband surprised me by bringing home a Golds Gym XRS30 home gym set. I have been wanting to start doing weight training to supplement my cardio.

treat meals? Do you ever regret them?

(Y'all can look at my diary- it's public)... Anyway, I have been STARVING all day today. Is it because of last night? Or do you…

Any recommendations for a "home gym"
I have lost 45 pounds since I started trying, and exercise 4 times a week either doing Zumba, other cardio or walking/jogging.
