ExpectJade

So it has been a looong while. Things have been going down like a whirlwind. I was in the last leg of my job, so i had to get those things finished up. There was some problems on the homefront that required some mental health proffesional help. Then there was excercising, therapy and finding a routine that works. But i am still here, my updates may be sporadic but i keep coming back In the weeks i was away i discovered that intermittent fasting is something i can keep going, which is surprising but seems to work I didnt meet my goals, but at least i found a diet and excercise regime that works for me

Last post 8 days ago. Wow that went fast. The past 8 days have been a rollercoaster, a lot of stuff happening at work, very busy with aplications for a new job and just in general busy. I however owe all of you an update. Things went up and down. The 1st week of january my weight went up, in the past 2 weeks i managed to get it down again to almost 124 kilo's. I started a new regiment and that is working out! I feel good, sore but good. I kept up with my voice excercises and my walking so i am proud. Posting might take a while again, but i will be back

Life update Today i had my first laser hair removal appointment to get rid of my facial hair. This is a personal victory as the beard is a thing that kept giving me big waves of dysphoria, so stoked to start with the facial hair removal. I also had an appointment with my therapist and we spoke about doing prep work for future surgeries. One of the topics that came up is my weight and BMI. before i can undergo any surgery i need to lose at least 40-50 kilo's and reach a BMI around the 25, thats 11 points lower than i have now. In about a year i could start getting surgeries and to be honest i don't want to wait any longer than necesary. So there is an immense pressure on me to lose weight, and i now the philosophy is slow and steady wins the race. But i feel a huge urge to start losing weight. I can use all the advice i can get. So please help me, what are steps i could take to climb this big mountain.

I owe 3 updates here. On the sundag i did 20x3 incline push up, 20x3 wide squats and 35 seconds planks. I also added 2 KM to my distance target and did my excercises. On monday 04-01 i did 20x3 incline push up, 20x3 wide squats and 40 sec planks. I didnt add any distance. Today, 05-01 i did 20x3 incline push ups, 20x3 wide squats and 40 sec planks, i added 4km to the distance.

Thank you, i needed to hear that. The trying is what god me through to today. I felt demotvated, but i did my excercises and afterwards i felt better. That is a good realization for me.

Update 30-12 day 3 Goal 1 No progress made their Goal 2 I added 2 more KM's Goal 3 No progress made It was a day where i was a bit down and had a hard time to motivate me. So i decided to take it down a notch and just go for the walking and give myself some rest. To accept i had a scummy day and let it be there, so i can move on from it the next day

I am so happy to see the love my challenge is creating between Yeti, Sci and Tank! This is an aspect of nerdfitness that never ceizes to amaze me Keep on going strong everyone

Thank you! Glad to have you here! Excited to have you here Thanks! It was a test yesterday, but i am back in

Sad to hear your family has such an issue with who you are, luckilly you surrounded yourself with a good chosen family! If you ask me a chosen family can be more important anyway.

Day 1 update Goal 1 3x18 wide squats 3x15 incline push ups 25secs of planking Goal 2 I went for a short patrol around my neighbourhood and actually helped a kitty! One of our neighbours has a cat that follows him everywhere and i found him near the grocery store loudly meowing, so i convinced him to follow me and led him home. THe neighbour was very thankfull. That patrol earned me 4kilometers Goal 3 Speechtherapy was done! nothin special to report The push ups hit hard today and i am definitly going to feel it tomorow

yay! Happy to have you! The difference is huge, it is like their is a huge weight of my shoulder.

i am reading so much d&d stuff here, love it.

These are really kind words, that i really needed to read. I am glad they are the 3d post on this thread That way i can easily find them again and have a look at them. I am gonna be looking out for your challenge to follow you

You are welcome Its a common question i get, so i figured someone on here would want to know aswell

Day 1 update Goal 1 3x15 wide squats 3x15 incline push ups 20secs of planking Goal 2 I went for a walk with my dad, we needed some together time to talk about the next phase of my transition. The talk in itself was good, so i am happy about that As for my weekly goal i can list of 8 kilometers of distance! Goal 3 Speech therapy homework is done! For those wondering, the speech therapy is something i do to help my transition. It is all about raising the pitch and resonance of my voice and learning certain, female mannerisms and speech patterns. Because voice is more than just the pitch or tone. All in all a good start!

Happy to have both of you here

Ah great thanks

Thank you everyboddy! Glad to have all of you here! Good to hear my Goals seems well tought of I will definitly try and keep everyone posted

would it be okay to start my challenge a week early? I didnt do one before and i feel like getting a jump on things

This oddysey of mine is all about finding the best version of myself. In order to do this i need to build some strength, do some speech therapy and do some walking. Goal 1: Strength In order to develop some basic muscle strength and get used to a routine i set a simple goal of doing a few excercises. 3 sets wide squats 3 sets of incline push ups Planking Reward, if i complete 80% i earn a strength point I didn't specify the reps because i mean to set a baseline at day 1, and build up everyday. Goal 2: Distance In order to get somewhere on my oddysey i have a distance goal of 30km's a week. These can be done running, walking or cycling Reward, if i complete 80% i earn a constitution point Goal 3: Speech therapy I have to do my speech therapy homework every day. Reward if i complete 90% i earn a charisma point

I am on stand by

That is so usefull! Thanks that worked well. I tried to save it as a new stream but that doesnt seem to work. Is that just me or is that everyone?
