Hello I'm new and looking for support

[lightingbird]

Hi.

I'm a 5 '9 235 pound male trying to get down to 185.

I've had some life changes that have slowed me up and allowed me to not put in effort in trying. I just recently started a new workout plan and look forward to any advice, help, motivation and hints.

Thanks for reading this.

welcome! and good luck! You might find that the forum is a bit dominated by women, but we don't bite, I PrOMISE! =) I would suggest starting a journal in the Diary section... keeping track of what I am eating and what kind of workouts I am doing has helped me alot. It also is a place where you can post and recieve advice etc, regarding your specific activities =)

again,welcome and good luck!

weight training is a guy's best friend for weight loss ... you don't have to be afraid of building bulk, as muscle burns fat very efficiently. Also, the protein shakes/bars/etc are a great source of calories, without wasting it on Carbs ....
