FattyMcJ Posted February 5, 2014 Report Share Posted February 5, 2014 Hey rebels! Here is the deal. I am a 33 year old Network Engineer living in Indianapolis. I am 6'2" and 288 lbs. My blood pressure and cholesterol are way out of wack. I have been eating crap food, drinking way too much booze, taking excessive amounts of pain medications for multiple back problems, and pretty much treating my body like a trash can for the last 20 years. I am not going to be much of a help to my wife and son if I have a heart attack or end up on disability. The good news is that I am stoked to make the BIG changes now. I found this site and started the basic BW circuit training routine 4 days ago and thought it would be a good idea to join the forum to help me stay motivated and engaged. Hello.

FattyMcJ Posted February 5, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 5, 2014 Thanks you guys. Yes, I am changing my diet as well. For the first 30 days, no junk food or fast food. I am eating mostly veggies, beans, and lean meat. I am going to focus more on the food as I progress.
