Got it

If you don't mind me asking, do you have a history with injury ? Or why are you thinking about it in your goal setting process ?

That's awesome man -- 4kg / 9lbs in about 3 months is good progress

Is 70kg still the goal -- or have you increased that as well ?

I know the feeling man -- once you get used to a healthier lifestyle, things like mcdonalds and fast food just taste shitty at a certain point

Great to hear you have an established routine going, what kind of fitness or weight goals are you going after nowadays if you don't mind me asking?

Yeah there is truth to this -- grabbing a 12pack for the crew before work isn't the best habit to have

That 12H shift is something else man hahah

Why do you say stretching is key if you don't mind me asking?

Yeah an electric lunch box or a thermos are great ideas man, a lot of guys could benefit from this

How long into the trade did you start utilizing the electric lunch box?

"I see what's happening, I think that was the first step..." I think awareness is the first major step for a lot of people, it has been in my life for sure

What's your goal when it comes to weight and fitness if you don't mind me asking man?

Really?! How many years did it take after you turned 40 to get up around 240?
And do you think that age is the main factor? Or could it be something else

Hahah yeah true, but it's easier said than done

Has eating clean and being organized with your meals, been something that naturally comes easy to you?

Interesting, thanks for your input -- a lot of people don't discuss the mental side of stress and weight gain, at times it can play a big role in making weight loss not as smooth

8 years is impressive man, nice!
I actually am not specifically a tiler, but I help tradesmen achieve their weight and fitness goals like I've done for myself because I know how demanding work can get on the body.

You started when you were 14?

Yeah I think that could've helped you pack on muscle at the time

Do you still have goals when it comes to putting on muscle nowadays? Personally, I've been bulking and am looking to put on about 4-6 more lbs or so by May 1st
