Who I Am
Husband, Father, Interactive Director by day, Fitness Motivator by night. I am the illegitimate lovechild of Jack LaLanne & Bill Gates. I love tech and love fitness, and believe that we live in a world where the two can live together in sweet harmony. That belief is why I started my online community at Retroactiv.com in January of 2011. This is about the same time I created my new mantra: Fitness is a journey, not a destination. Start your journey today. Tomorrow is just an excuse. :)

What This Site is to Me
When I decided it was time for me to make the decision to take back my life from obesity, I was lucky enough to have the support of my beautiful wife, and my family and friends to help keep me motivated. They supported my choice, and were there every step of the way encouraging me to keep fighting the good fight. Not everyone has that kind of support system, so I guess this site is my way of giving others the chance to relate to a normal human being who managed to change his life for the better. If I can do it - anyone can. YOU CAN. I have learned quite a bit about weight loss over the past two years - and would love to share that knowledge, along with some of my stories, to anyone who would like to listen. I also hope that keeping the site updated will help me keep the weight off by reminding myself about my journey each and every day.

What This Site is Not
I am NOT a personal trainer, nor do I claim to be some kind of fitness expert. The stories and advice I share on this site are NOT to be taken as "gospel".  What worked for me may or may not work for you. Please understand that I only have the best of intentions with this site, and as such, I will not be suggesting any particular products or services unless I honestly have/had used them to help me get my body back. If I mention a particular product - I am not endorsing it - just sharing the info. All that non-sense being said, please be advised that I am not responsible for any harm that may come to you from following any of my methods or advice. Whew - that was tedious...
