ive been going to the gym 4 nights a week for 7 weeks straight. i run 3 miles for 30 minutes and lift for about an hour and a half. i feel 1000 times better than i did end of last year after stuffing my face through thanksgiving and christmas. it sucked dragging my ass to the gym the first 2 weeks but after that i actually look forward to it. i think exercise is the toughest part to get started. diet came along naturally. i just pick up some chicken, steak, pork chops, and vegetables and some low fat marinades and make myself a meal every other night. sometimes ill have a salad instead. pick up a bunch of clif bars to snack on, they're like fucking candy. try to eat throughout the day, every 2-3 hours. carrots, celery sticks, whatever. lots of water, 4-6 glasses and vitamins. i feel more energetic, more awake and i sleep a lot better since.
