[QUOTE="codyadams, post: 1852670, member: 87243"] I'm there with ya, 5'11" and 230, I have stout legs from years of hiking these mountains your hopefully gonna see this fall, but also a gut. I eat healthy food, rarely eat fast food anymore, mostly wild game and veggies of some kind for dinner, with mixed in chicken and fish, but I eat too much of it, and stuff myself. Thankfully my job keeps me walking stairs all day....winter is a bad time too because it's too cold to go for runs/walks outside that I love to do, but it's starting to warm up. I plan on starting to lower my calorie intake and continue my active life, and hopefully drop down. Also, keep in mind cardio!! When you draw your tag, we will be hunting between 8500 and 10,000+ feet elevation depending on weather and where the elk are hanging out, and the air gets thin. I live at 7,000 ft elevation, so I am somewhat accustomed to it, but even I notice the thinner air when I get up higher. Having a fitbit or something like that could help, it will at least remind you, and then you will think what you are working for, and that reminder helps. Hope ya draw the tag, will be good to meet ya and hopefully take out a few elk!! [/QUOTE]
