As I said, a strong mind is the way to a strong body so I'm going to run with this and try to stay in as a controlled of an environment as possible.
By all means, if you want to be a gym rat then go be a gym rat. My point was more that fitness and weight control are not necessarily a big investment in time or money. Half an hour a day and a good pair of shoes is all it takes. If you want to do more than I'm behind you the whole way (figuratively, of course).
