Leia Cruz here...middle aged bad ass in training. Just found out about these Battle Logs, so starting mine. I want to track weight loss in 2 ways, scale weight and waist size.

Hi Ashy Pearl! I am also a newbie and trying to figure out this Nerd Fitness thing. Welcome!!!

Today I completed the Beginners Bodyweight Workout for the 2nd time. I had to modify some of the exercises due to a knee injury, but overall felt good. I was able to do the plank on my toes instead of knees. Posting my stats and beginner pics. I bought this Tshirt on my honeymoon. I want it to fit better, even be slightly too big. The shorts I can put on, but can't sit in them let alone workout in them. Weight: 193.4 Waist: 41" Push ups: 10 on knees Plank: 15 sec on toes

From one newb to another, welcome!!!

Thank you for allowing me to join the Rebellion! Leia Cruz here, starting over my fitness journey once again...this time as a middle ager, and it is a lot harder!! Looking forward to getting some support via these forums. I need something new to motivate me and get me off the couch. I am a 46 year old educator who is a nerd at heart. I'm not a gamer, but I love a good sci fi book or movie series. My faves are Star Wars franchise and all of the Tolkien-based movies. Give me a starship or a hobbit hole, and I am a happy girl. I recently started cutting carbs and have set a goal to eat Paleo for a month. Hoping to get food ideas here as well as "hacks" because I am on the lazy side when it comes to cooking. I have lost 10 lbs since November, but have set a lofty goal to lose 10 more by the end of the school year. (May 31st).
