Hello there everybody. Brand new here. I'm a 55 year old guy living in Arizona. I played sports through college, yet find myself here many years later at 290 lbs and waaaay out of shape. I'm single and accountable only to myself. Needless to say, that hasn't been a good situation. I have no idea what this forum offers, but figured it can't hurt to explore. I need motivation, and am not finding it within myself.....for whatever reason. Don't know if anyone can help me along or what, but regardless, just wanted to introduce myself and see where this takes me. I appreciate you taking the time to read this and look forward to meeting some of you. Don't know if we use 'real names' here or not, but in addition to 'papwriter', I am better known as Mark. Thanks again.
