I'm 73, female, Atkins since the first book came out in 1972. For the past 3 years I've been strict LCHF + IF. Have no diseases, take no prescription drugs and have been walking 3 miles before dawn every morning for 4 years. I have basically the same body shape as in '72 when I was 28 years old. I've come to The Rebellion because recently my maintenance was disrupted and I don't know why. This isn't about vanity. I need to do something about it because at my age, health and mobility are paramount. Not only the body benefits from Keto and Intermittent Fasting, but the BRAIN health as well.

Hi all! My Name is Olivia, and I'm really pretty new to fitness stuff in general. I've always been pretty thin (5'4" ~118lb) and in fairly decent shape, but I've decided I want more. I want to achieve something. I'm currently working in retail and walk everywhere, but I'm interested in learning to lift and building strength. I was a dancer for my whole childhood and used to practice yoga fairly regularly and I'm interested in starting those things up again but I really am fascinated with the idea with being able to be a smallish female who can lift some freaking weights.

How's that for a catchy thread title?? I'm Shenani, mom of three, and in need of a health overhaul. Any other parents of wee ones here? My husband is a HUGE nerd, but this is my first foray into nerdery! I'm excited! Question: the Druids is where my heart is, but I've done yoga and meditated for many years. Should I join something more out of my comfort zone? Or stick with what I know?

Hi everybody! I'm Jordan or more wonderfully known as see_her_squat. I'm starting my fitness journey on Sunday when I return home and buy an awesome student discount gym membership!

Weight: 173.5 pounds Everything else I don't have access to because I am away right now. My goal is to lose maybe 20 pounds by this August. I know that it is doable I just need help along the way. So yeah pop by say hi I don't bite (much) and yeah...

Hello, My name is Aaren, but you can call me Neria if you want. It's finally nice to have the guts to actually do my first introduction post. To be honest, I was kinda intimidated, so I'll admit it has taken me a bit to muster up this courage. Just a little bit about me: I'm 21-years-old and I currently live in Canada. My lifetime goal (non-fitness related) is to become a doctor, or any job in the medical field for that matter, in any area of the world that needs medical attention. I believe that medicine may be my calling, so I want to pursue that and use these talents that I've been give

Hello, salutations and cheers. I am Aaron (Rebel: GingerPsyco) and I wish you all well. I've read many of the articles here on NF and the have provided countless amounts of inspiration, ideas, and goals. Some such goals include increasing my stamina and body awareness for parkour, better my eating habits (would say I'm 70% Paleo), and lessen my fear of general interactions with strangers. I leave my self in your care, and hope to make some new friends/mentors in this new chapter of life. Side note: I have a challange and would like some directions of where to look. Due to my profession (

Hello everyone I'm Jon. 5'11. I'm from new york city and currently 22 years old. I'm an education/mathematics major attempting to level up in fitness. Lover of megaman, dragon ball, video games, super heroes, manga, and comicbooks. I dont want rock hard abs or giant arms. What I do want is a strong flexible body that will support me on any adventure or personal challenges I may set for myself, and my dreams. A little bit about me. I've never really been the skinny kid I was always the chubby overweight kid. It basically started at a young age when I learned how to open the refrigerator. It eve

Pyri reporting for duty, Sir! I heard that the Nerd Rebellion is in need of out of shape, overweight, people who are finally ready to kick some ass... so here I am! I beg each and every one of you to help keep me going, to help drag me through the dirt and the rocks and the rough spots, til I can learn to do it on my own. I have a lot of motivations, but I would say that the biggest is that I want to be in good shape for when I have a child (not currently pregnant). I want to be able to go hiking and camping and fishing and play soccer and fly a kite and go swimming and lift them up high and

Hi! I am excited to have finally made a account on this forum! The Nerd Fitness blog and forums are filled with incredibly awesome people and I end up spending way to much time reading them (but the time is totally worth it). I play college basketball which keeps me in shape, but it's the food that keeps me away from my goals. I only have this year and the next year of eligibility so i'd like to make these the best years of playing. To me that means getting in the best shape as humanly possible. I've been using my fitness pal as a way to keep me in check of what i am eating. I want to u

Hello fellow nerds, My name is Zack Barnes, and I am trying to level up my life. I tried the paleo diet last year and it worked great, LOVED IT. However as income got tight and I slipped and had some fast food one night I slipped out of it. I am currently starting my 2nd heart on Link's screen. A new life persay. I have to start my quest to level up once more. I just moved to Murfreesboro, TN and I am looking for new friends around the area. I lived in Huntsville, AL with a few nerd fitness junkies down there and it was great, I had a lot of support out of them. So thats what I am lo
