Fallingangel Posted February 6, 2013 Report Share Posted February 6, 2013 Hello Everyone, So I have been just kind of looking around them forums for a couple months now too scared to say anything, so I deiced today was the day I was going to say something. I have been reading nerd fitness for about half a year now and it has helped me get on the right track, along with more self control. I am twenty years old, one of my main goals is to join the Air Force but in able to do that I need to loose 75 pounds. When I first started on this journey about a month ago I thought it was practically impossible, but I told my self that if you all those people on nerd fitness did it then why cant I. I use to make excuses that it was everyone's in my houses fault for offering me baked goods or overly sugary foods, but it was my fault for saying yes. I have definitely gotten better at looking at them and saying no I can not eat that it is not good for me. Thanks to this community I have learned about the paleo diet, although the one thing I hate calling it is a diet because I feel like it is more of a life style change. Any way enough with my rambling, I guess the main reason I wanted to finally post something is for the most part I dont have a huge support system behind me, so I wanted to take Steves advice and look for support through the nerd fitness community.

Fallingangel Posted February 7, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 7, 2013 Welcome, ex-lurker! I second the advice to start planning out some goals for next challenge. But don't let that delay stop you from starting to change your life *now*! What 2 things would you like to change over the next fortnight? One diet goal, one exercise goal?So over the two next weeks the two goals I would like to work on would be exercises wise to increase my running time. I guess a diet goal would to be eat more of the vegetables I have said I don't like, but have never tried most of the time I end up liking them with like asparagus I did not think I liked them till my dad made me eat them and now I can not wait for asparagus season. Do not know if those are good goals but there starting goals. Oh when does the next six week challenge start and how do I sign up.
