It's good to see you make positive changes in your life before it becomes an issue. I got seriously lazy in my 30's and it was actually Facebook of all things that finally encouraged me to get off my ass and chance that about myself. It was when it showed some picture of 7 years ago or something and I suddenly realized that I had put on a massive amount of weight. It sneaks up on you over the course of many years and it's much more difficult to take it off later in life. Therefore, it is really great that you decided to nip this in the bud before it is too late. Hopefully it becomes a lifestyle for you and it appears as though it has become precisely that!

I’m extremely lucky to have been athletic and thin pretty much my entire life. I was 100% getting lazy and too comfortable with a lack of exercise in my life. Powering through that lazy state has allowed me to already do things I could never do in the past. I was a vegetarian during the the years that I’ve ever been in the gym consistently during my 20s. Now that I’ve been eating an abundance of meat for a few years now. I can tell a drastic difference in my strength. Although I’ve only been back at it for 2 months, I’m already past levels of strength that I had gained during my aerial yoga teaching and gym going days of 2015-2018.
Only thing that sucks about being 170lbs instead of 140lbs is that it’s much harder to pump out 20+ pull ups and 100 push ups. I’m afraid to try at this weight.
I’m making progress and not being a lazy POS, truly that’s all that matters. I like to eat good food, that’s my weakness. Luckily I never drink alcohol without even having to try not to.
