XSanguinus Posted July 30, 2012 Report Share Posted July 30, 2012 I've been reading the Nerd Fitness articles for a few weeks now. Figured it was time to stick my head out above ground.A little about me... I've never been in shape. Ever. As a kid I was short and underweight. As a teenager I grew to the moderate 5' 7" I am today, but I was still soft. In my 20s and 30s I was seriously overweight, topping out at 215 in October 2011. I was 35 years old, a husband and a father of two boys, and I was miserable. Sometime in May 2012 I decided to take charge of my health. I dropped the SAD like a bad habit and switched to a paleo-based diet plan. I started walking two miles a day with some sprinting thrown in. I started doing both bodyweight and free weights strength exercises. Now I'm down to 193. I've lost 4 inches off my waist, 2 inches off my chest, and my t-shirt size has gone from XL to L.I'm very happy with my progress, but I know I have a long way to go. The people on these forums look like a truly remarkable group and I can't wait to hear their input and suggestions. Link to comment
Sam Posted July 30, 2012 Report Share Posted July 30, 2012 Hey XSanguinus!!Congrats on the progress so far sounds good. Its nice to hear that the work is showing results.Have you considered a guild? This would help you refine your training into something more tailored to your goals 'Along this path of life we're bound upon, the right road is wholly lost and gone.''

XSanguinus Posted July 30, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 30, 2012 I'm leaning toward the Rangers class, but I may go with Warrior. I'm increasing my weight amounts this month, so I will probably make up my mind at the end of August. Link to comment
