kraig best of luck sir..im a 25 yr old kid who is 6'2" and weighs 180lbs wet, what i like to do is be outside and do more of a "fun workout" I.E. go for bike rides, run/ walk up into town( about 2 miles one way) and ride dirtbikes, ohh and do laps in the pool..or since i know you have a boat, jump into the lake and swim around..sitting in the gym is ok but it gets intimidating sometimes...just think of things outdoors that you like to do and try to make a workout out of it and your burn pounds without even knowing it
