nindann Posted December 2, 2012 Report Share Posted December 2, 2012 I am Nicky.I was so excited when I found Nerd Fitness it adds the fun aspect to living a healthier lifestyle that I need. It's also brilliant knowing that there are people who can answer probably every fitness/diet questions I can think of.My goal is to just improve my fitness and work towards maintaining a healthy diet, as well as losing some weight while I do it. Last time I weighed myself I was 201lbs. That was quite a while ago I tend to get a little upset when I weight myself. I know it is not a heavy weight I just have such short friends that my weight seems so big compared. I know I shouldn't compare with them but it's hard not to. I am comfortable with my current figure I just hope to slim down a little bit so I can be properly happy with it again and be slightly less 'wobbly'. I am very excited for the journey I will be going through with all you guys, and watching your journeys unfold!

Laureleye Posted December 2, 2012 Report Share Posted December 2, 2012 What types of workouts are you looking at? The beginner's body weight is always a fun way to start. Are you going to go paleo/primal with your diet? Glad you found us, and hope you have fun here. The hardest part of the workout is lacing up your shoes'"10 | 11 | 12 | 13 | 14 | 15 | Current Challenge |INTJ | MFP | FitBit Link to comment
nindann Posted December 2, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 2, 2012 I am just aiming to cycle on my exercise bike and when I can afford one a proper bike, as well as walking where I can and I help my niece a lot with her dance and flexibility training (I used to do gymnastics which helps a lot). I think the Paleo diet sounds absolutely amazing. It's something I'd like to work towards but I am going to start slow and replace the unhealthy snacks and meals I have with healthier ones. If I throw myself in there and try to completely change the way I eat and exercise straight away I will get fed up and give up.Thanks for the warm welcome. I can't wait to join in more [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Adventurer STR 2.5|DEX 3.5|STA 2|CON 2.5|WIS 2.5|CHA 2.5 Link to comment

Tanktimus the Encourager Posted December 4, 2012 Report Share Posted December 4, 2012 That's good self awareness about how you need to start paleo. Also more specific goals might be helpful. What is a healthy diet. What are some ways to measure how fit you are so that you know when you are at a level of "improved fitness." How much weight do you want to lose?
