I am 37 years old and I feel like I need to take better care of myself. I think that if I record and monitor the number of calories that I intake that I may be able to lose some weight around the middle. This all stemmed from me needing to buy a pair of pants and the 38's that I grabbed in the store felt a little too tight. Rather than purchase some 40's, I decided that I better do some work on the middle. Maybe I can get down to some 36's after all is said and done.
