Here is my situation:
I quit smoking 03-08-2002 after 7 years, pack a day(I'm 23). I am still going strong and rarely think about it. After I quit it seems like my metabolism hit a brick wall. I'm 5'8 and went from 155 to 195 pounds
, and people started to ask if I was gaining weight(I was fairly thin before I quit). For the first time I am generally unhappy with how I look.
Tennants of our apartment complex are given a full time membership to a nice fitness club that is not too far away. Up until now I didn't take advantage of it. Shame on me.
Before I join I would like some advice for a beginner. Maybe a workout routine I could do to get started? I am a noob so a list of items I need(clothes, towels etc.) would be helpful as well. I am determined to make changes and get fit. Maybe even get "cut" like my wife's "dream lover" Vin Diesel?
If I can quit smoking I can do anything! Feel free to post here or send a PM. Thanks.
