Tis one of my favorite exercises.

I was at 295 in September when I started back to the gym after 10 years away, and still 280 in Feb. when I kicked up the diet a notch. Looking for 225 by the end of the year.

This is the biggest struggle for me but the last few weeks I've been good with my food intake and making the healthier choices. Not always healthy but just healthier.
Dinner usually consists of either BBQd steak or chicken and some sort of veggie, which in my case means corn or asparagus.
