Well I've been lucky to have a buddy that helps me with the motivation part and now is helping with the workout part. But what about all the people in here that don't hook up with a great mentor - where do they go?

Thing is - us bigger people have different issues - heck for me using some of the machines is awkward because of my chest being large - there has to be modifications that we can find and use. Also the debate over cardio vs. weights and when to start what confuses me. I know lots of people that go to curves but it's expensive and for what i could spend in a month there I could probably go to my community gym for 1/2 if i knew what to do when i got there <ggg>

So - yes - let's use this to post until someone resque's us and gives us a TDC trainer :-)
