I'm 41. I used to be very active, but was always having back issues. I would do karate, dance, sparring and some sports. Now I am still kind of muscular looking, with my shirt on, but I weigh 255 lbs and want to get back to my fighting weight of 195lbs.
I have recently been diagnosed with peripheral polyneuropathy and I constantly live with severe pain. I've read that exercise and getting lighter could help lessen the symptoms and I have a total gym, which I've heard is terriffic for getting cut.
I go to school right now for a basic liberal arts degree, I love to read all the time, I watch anime with my kids a lot and I used to be a singer songwriter till I lost my voice in 2009. I'm still into recording and intend 2 write professionally soon
