[QUOTE="jaerdaph, post: 3772226, member: 3398"] Excellent! As I mentioned in that thread, we did something similar here on EN World for trying to quit smoking and a few EN Worlders were able to kick the habit for good. I hope this thread has the same positive result for everyone participating! I actually have a good thing to report: I ran into a woman I hadn't seen in about a year last night. The first thing she said to me was "oh my God you've lost so much weight!" It was a nice feeling. :) While I'm eating very well, not snacking, and exercising more, I feel I should be doing more. I'd like to join a gym, but I'm a little aprehensive. Fortunately I don't live in Manhattan where everyone at the gym comes "pre-perfect", so I'm a little more comfortable doing so here in Astoria. Anyone here have any tips or suggestions about what to look for in a gym membership? [B]Where I Am[/B]: 160 lbs, 5'8. (Where I was this time last year: 180 lbs.) [B]Exercise[/B]: I hoof it everywhere, and avoid the subway if I know I can walk. I also do the basic morning routine of situps and pushups, sometimes squat thrusts. [B]Diet[/B]: A lot of fruits, vegetables and salads, turkey, tuna and salmon, some chicken. No more in between meal snacking. On the weekend I may have one big meal, usually with red meat, and one cheeseburger. Downfall: I do like my beer, but I never drink to excess. [B]Goals[/B]: To get to and maintain 150 lbs and to join a gym or health club. [/QUOTE]
