I am a tall (6'3") non-profit professional who is also an outdoor educator. I live in Maine, and am a single dad with two teens. I got sick about three years ago (better now) and have gotten into the habit of eating whatever I feel like, mostly because I have a pretty high metabolism. I used to burn it quickly...but no more! Being busy with the kids (my son plays hockey, daughter always busy), I have ordered lots of fast food in the last couple of years. I turned 61 in January, and am determined to get rid of my gut and get back to climbing and other activities I love. Update: I got down to near my target weight, and put it all back on again! Now I'm back here to try again...
