Re: Getting into shape
Been going to the gym for almost three months now. Starting to plateau on my lifts, but I can see some progress and my waistline is shrinking while my weight remains constant, so that's nice.

Re: Getting into shape
My weight was fluctuating this year with on and off dieting so I decided to do what needed to be done. I quit casual drinking and I quickly lost 30 pounds. When I was drinking, I was also eating unhealthily. Inevitably when I was hungover I was eating crap and completely inactive. The whole thing was a lousy/depressing cycle. The change was an adjustment at first, but honestly I'm happier person for it. Not only am I in better shape, but I feel better too. I went to vegas with my wife (she's not much of a drinker) over the weekend and I didn't have one drink. It might sound lame, but we had a great time and I played some of the best poker of my life. I really think I've changed my life for the better and I don't see myself ever reverting back to my old habits.

Re: Getting into shape
You didn't drink in Vegas? That is lame as hell.
You guys that claim you can't get and stay in shape while drinking need to learn to fight through a little hangover every now and then. A hangover is no excuse to miss a workout, but then again a workout is no excuse to avoid a hangover.
