My highest weight was 252 lbs. over a year ago. I started the gym and working with a trainer in April.
Why I Love It:
The rush! Sometimes it's hard to make yourself get up and workout, but once you get started, the pump you get is amazing.
How I Stay Motivated:
This is the hardest part. But I would have to say, that reading mags and viewing bodybuilding.com keeps me on track.

This pic was takien in May of 2007.I was around 221#s here. Had been working out with a trainer since April 9th. My highest weight was 252 lbs., so I've come a long way.
I want to be so fit and sexy that I can't even stand myself! I have always been on the overweight side, and I'm tired of it. Pretty, just isn't enough for me anymore. I want to be the best that I can be. I'm almost finished with school. Now I want the perfect body. When I make up my mind to do something, there's no stopping me. I DO NOT like to fail. We all do at times, that's how we learn, and that's also how I got to be this unfit too. So, I'm going to pick myself up, and uncase the diamond that I know exists underneath all this fat.
What is the one tip you would give somebody who is just getting started?

What tricep workout has worked best for you?
Arm extentions are awesome! I am always sore after doing them even with light weights.

What is your favorite cardiovascular exercise? Why?
I like the elliptical because its easy on the knees and you can also get a bit of a upper body workout with the moving handles. I want to get a boxing back and gloves soon b/c boxing and kickboxing gets my heart going and it helps me take out aggression. I really don't feel like I'm exercising.I like the elliptical because its easy on the knees and you can also get a bit of a upper body workout with the moving handles.

I am retaining so much water for the past few weeks. Around 5-8lbs of it. I wake up in the mornings and my hands and fingers are swollen. Is there any advise how to stop this? I really can tell a difference in my shape when I retain water and it pisses me off to see the scale go up.
Took me a while to figure out that "GL2U" meant "Good Luck to You". LOL! I'm sorry. So how are you doing right now? What've you been doing to get yourself in marvelous shape? :)
