aroronchynn Posted April 29, 2013 Report Share Posted April 29, 2013 Hey all! I have been a follower of the main blog for about a year now, but just now decided to get a forum membership. I am a 25 year old male, with a desk job. I graduated from university a couple years ago. Life is pretty good I guess, I have a nice place, a new car, and a great girlfriend. But I am really out of shape. I have been for years. In fact, I don't think I have ever really been IN shape. However, I really like the style of this community, and I would like to take part. I am a total sci-fi nerd, computer gamer, and all around computer geek, so I figured I would fit in well here. I have a habit of being a bit of a lurker, but I will try to keep myself involved here. So now the real dirt. I struggle with motivation. I got a gym membership almost a year ago now, and I have actually gone to the gym exactly twice since then. After work, I usually just feel so lethargic and tired, I dont want to do anything but watch some TV with my girlfriend, or play Minecraft for a few hours. I think an accountability partner would help, but I don't like to let other people down if I fail at something, so I avoid that. I have succeeded in improving my diet at least a little. When I am hope, I eat a ton of veggies, and healthy meats. I have been making breakfast smoothies regularly, and generally trying to eat paleo as much as I can. But only at home. I eat out for lunch almost every day, cause i live just far enough away to not make it worth going home. And I am usually in too much of a rush to pack a lunch. So a couple baby steps have been made, but I lack the motivation to take the next step. Partly cause I am a little unhappy with my work, partly because I dislike drawing extra attention to myself. So yeah, thats me. Its kind of liberating to get all that out there, and just posting it makes me a little accountable to follow through with stuff. Hope to have some good discussion with all of you!

aroronchynn Posted April 29, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 29, 2013 Well, my goal is pretty simple, lose a little weight, and build some muscle. I am about 220 lbs right now, at 6'1". So not terribly overweight, just enough to notice. I would like to get under 200, and feel comfortable without a shirt on again. The farmers tan look gets old after a few years, haha Right now, plans are just learn what works for me, and not kill myself in the process. I am a total n00b and gym stuff, so I am learning everything from scratch. Link to comment
