Glad to see you've started a thread, Lou! 
I hope you'll post your workouts as you go along. We all enjoy encouraging each other along the way.
Happy week before Christmas and welcome to the Over 35 journaling section!
Oh, and don't feel badly about 38. I'm 45 and still kicking!!

Welcome to the club but be careful, people age quickly here. Doesn't it seem like just the other day you were 37?

Welcome Luis, Lou or Louie It's good that it's only been a couple years since you where in good shape it shouldn't take you too long to get back into shape. I let my self go after I got out of the service 12 years ago  So don't do what I did get to it now

Hi Lou. Welcome! Now drop and give me 20! Two years isn't bad. I had taken 20 off. I've been thinking about you military guys a lot lately. My neighbor's son and his wife have to go to Iraq for at least a year. They have a 3 year old daughter too. It has to be very rough on everyone.

Ditto! But I let myself go for 13 years .... and it's been a very long 2 1/2 years trying to lose the weight and get back in some kind of shape!
Good for you Luis!
