I have found a GREAT motivation to stick with the gym is THIS...
I decided to be someone's dad...he deserves a healthy dad that will be around for him as long as possible..
period.
Trying to stay healthy is not an option..it's my underlying job and a must...
it's just as important as putting food on the table and having a roof over your head !

Amen brother. This is why I quit smoking and why I made the decision to get in the best shape I can. I want to be around as long as possible.

Yea...just because I finally got the nerve to become a dad at 40...
why should he suffer because I started late in the game...?!
I'll almost be 60 when he graduates high school :o...

I have a teadmill made by a company called Smooth Fitness in New Jersey. They were one of the top 10 treadmill companies in a Runner's World poll when I bought mine. I also have a Weider Max machine which is similar to a Bowflex but cheaper. I also do a workout called TaeBo Impact which involves the use of a pedestal bag.
I, however, have been really lazy for about the last month since my step-daughter and her 3 kids moved in with us. But thanks for this thread, maybe I will be able to get my a$$ back in gear.

Just to add to this topic, I'm currently down to 200lbs even. Aiming for 175 so I still have a few lbs to go. I have lost 24lbs in about 6 weeks. I feel great. I have more energy, I am able to play with my little son without feeling lethargic and lazy. it is a wonderful feeling. In 6 months I hope to be down to my ideal weight of between 175-180.

Im at the gym 2 x a week and walk whenever I can. Getting back to golf. I see too many people who are in terible shape as they approach retirement. Best to get started as early as possible to get into shape!
