I feel like an idiot and am serious about getting back in climbing shape. This semester of school is done and I am working full time for the next 8 months on co-op so I will have plenty of time to go to the gym.
I want to try to get down to 160 by the end of January. Is this a realistic goal? Any tips would be much appreciated. So far I'm just planning on running every day and climbing when I can. I've never done this whole weight loss thing.
