I've been reading along here for a few weeks now. I'd been meaning to introduce myself, but it turned out I was showing up as a seller, which I think held me back from doing it sooner. New Zealander here, on a mission to get in shape. Over the years I've bounced between obese and a visible 6 pack. My 40s, though, have made themselves felt. Diet or train as I might, the weight is far harder to shift now and far harder to keep off. Part of why I'm here is to tell a bit of my own story, and part of it is that I've drawn a lot of comfort from what other people have written on this forum. I'd like to take what you all know and build a better version of myself with it. And yes - reta interests me, along with how to go about starting it and folding it into a new way of living. Looking forward to getting to know you all.
