Hello. Just joined today and wanted to introduce myself.

I quit smoking in January and have since gained 40 pounds. I am currently 220, 6'2". I'm going to be taking a weight lifting class at my local community college next term (significantly cheaper than joining a gym and should help to motivate me) and I wanted to be prepared.

Any advice would be appreciated.

Thanks. Glad to be here.
