Hello,

In the recent past I've been through some trials that many ppl go through and the results of which can make or break someone.

Without going into details, I decided today that this was the end of the road I was walking on that was leading to an early grave, poor health and would take me away from my wonderful family.

I have a lot to live for and want to live it all too the fullest. I want to face the challenges I never had the opportunity, confidence, support or courage to face.

This is the beginning. Stay tuned and please encourage.

Welcome!
Good job getting off that bad road and starting down a new, better one

welcome to FitDay. Hitting rock bottom is an eye opener but you can only go up.

Welcome to FitDay and the forums!

I hear 'ya about the road to ruin--I was headed there myself at about 100 MPH less than a year ago.

You've taken a great step in putting on the brakes and switching lanes!

If there's anything we can do to help, just ask.

Regards,
Michael

4 days into it and down almost 5 pounds already. Energy level is climbing, feeling better every day. So pumped!

That's awesome--nothing motivates like success--keep it up!

Congratulations on your decision to join us on your journey.
You'll have some setbacks along the way (happens to everyone from time to time!) - don't let them derail you. Keep posting!

Ah, still pumped and the energy levels are still climbing! Down to 187.4 as of this morning. When I hit the 170 mark, going back to Judo and Jiu-Jitsu classes.

Good for you! MA are a great workout. Keep us posted as to your progress.
