In regards to some of the earlier replies, I'd like to get this out of the way before getting into anything else.

Good job man it's definitely a good start. Remember to not become just another guy who paid the fat tax. Use that fucking membership, and even if it's just showing up to get some light cardio or something in, GO. It will keep you in the routine even when you feel like shit, or your coming down with a cold, etc.
Before I had all my equipment at home, and I was at the gym 5-6 days a week, you would always see three groups. The regulars that you know by face, and if your going long enough you end up learning their entire workout routine just by waiting for them in between sets and shit. Then there are the new guys, mostly couples down here. They show up and take a tour of the gym with the manager, check out all the cool equipment, sign up, and either never show up again or end up becoming part of the third group. The stragglers come and go, sometimes they will hit it hard for a week, then not show up for awhile. Within a month or two they become part of the first group or the second group. I have nothing against the ones who signup and never show up again. They are the reason I only have to pay 30 bucks for a membership. If everyone who had a gym membership used it that shit would be insanely expensive. You are spot on about the IM = more fatties. It's a great way to make a living, but it also comes with some risks liek that. I still talk to fat guys like I'm fat sometimes, and I really have nothing against people who are overweight. It's kinda like having something you know will help them, and make them feel better, and improve there life, and you want to help since you made the leap yourself and know both sides. The only people I have something against are the fat people who don't eat right, or workout, and somehow are befuddled as to why they are fat.
I always knew why I was fat, and I just took my time making a move on changing it I guess. So to all my fat brothers reading this, try not to look at this like a globogym type spiel. I'm here to help you. I love this shit, and it's really one of my only passions outside of strippers and golf. My time is worth more than what a personal trainer makes, but I donate it anyway to help Marines become the bad asses they are expected to be, and ideally cheat death in operations overseas. If ONE person gets something from this thread it will be worth the few hours or so I'd put into it.

Yeah like I said in the disclaimer, it's not intended to be taken as the holy grail. A lot of shit that works for me has no place with 90% of the population. I tried to generalize a bit, since even if it's not a perfect start for everyone, it's a START. Thanks for the feedback.

It's pop to the majority of America so don't get cunty! If somehow I am wrong with that statement than I am going to still figure out a way to be right about this sooo (I gotta admit though I drop soda more and more now that I've been in the south for a few years, it's up there with yall for me, and I AM stubborn). If I drank pop frequently (don't!) I probably would have been swayed over by my ex fiance whose from here years ago. When I order a drink with pop I always just say "and diet". Thanks for the post
