My input, if you’re looking for any, is that working out (and eating well) is ultimately a personal ambition. It’s great to have friends, trainers, and other professionals, but it’s essential to have the intrinsic motivation to put on the running/walking shoes, lace up the xc ski boots, jump on your bike, and bite the bullet (when it’s zero degrees outside) and just go exercise.
Make it as easy as possible. You can (and should) do a lot from your front door step. Do things that you enjoy, so that the next day, you look forward to it. And… don’t use food as a reward for working out that day.
Keep us updated on your progress - we know you’ll do well.
Nice post RV Ski Guy.
