Doing a strength building program on the Lululemon mirror as my inside workouts 4 days a week then running/biking/walking for my outside workouts. The 3 non strength days I'm doing stretching or just walking.

It's been pretty easy so far but today was the first day I didn't feel like working out and tracking everything haha. 59 to go.

At 200/26%BF as of now and looking better every day.
Hit day 40 tomorrow and I can honestly say this is best I've felt in at least a decade. I'm down to 191lbs and 25%BF and the quality of my life has dramatically improved.

Not only have I gotten much stronger but I can breathe better, I don't snore anymore, I'm not tired and don't hit that 5pm wall anymore.

I'm not sore. My back and knees have stopped aching, I can focus better at work, I have more patience with my kids and wife.

I needed this. It's not easy everyday, but the momentum has definitely made it less hard. I wish I would've done something like this 5 years ago, it's a great feeling to feel great.
