aezy Posted August 3, 2012 Report Share Posted August 3, 2012 Like most of the newbies right now I've decided to join up just in time for the next six week challenge: I'm pretty excited! As a kid I used to hate sports and exercise, I would much rather be reading, although I swam competitively for about 5 years. I've always been on the large side in my group of friends and I feel that has massively impacted my confidence. I've also spent most of 2012 taking a break from school due to depression, which is now getting much better. Along the way I split up with my boyfriend, stopped eating the same junk he did and began losing weight. I looked and felt so good! In June/July time I had a six week membership to my local gym which re-introduced me to my love of swimming and general fitness stuff. I go back to uni in October so I'm looking to get into good diet/fitness habits before I get there and since my membership to the gym has now run out I figured Nerd Fitness would be the perfect place to get some accountability! On the nerd side of things: I study biology at university so will talk your ear off about genetics, evolution, behaviour and cells I am also a massive bookworm and am hopelessly addicted to the Sims 2 (not the coolest game in the world but there you go). Looking forward to participating and getting to know everyone around these parts Aezy Link to comment

CyningaDena Posted August 3, 2012 Report Share Posted August 3, 2012 Welcome aboard! That transition back to school can be tricky sometimes, and it can be easy to lose your new good habits in the midst of that change, so hang in there and keep us all posted. Here's to kicking ass on our first challenge! Wood Elf Ranger LEVEL 1, It don't mean a thing if I don't hear that ding: My Epic Quest Link to comment
