I am a former corporate officer with several large insurance companies and have a background primarily in accounting and management. My wife and I have made several corporate moves, and lived in the south, northeast, and mid-Atlantic. I've always had an issue with weight, and most of it stems from my love for food. There are some people who eat to live, and then there are us who live to eat. Having lived all over the east coast, both of us appreciate the foods that come from a particular area, region, or country. I exercise 6 days a week for 1 - 1.5 hours, and also play golf. Most of my exercise is primarily cardiovascular and I try to ride my recumbent bike between 20 - 23 miles per day. The exercise program also includes stretching, heavier bands in lieu of weights, and walking.
