Hey everyone, an introduction for you

[MySurvive]

What's up everyone? My name is Ricky and I live in Raleigh, NC

 

STATS:

Ht: 6'0

Wt: 270 lbs (starting weight)

Age: 21

Loc: Raleigh, NC

 

My son was born 10 months ago and I put on a ton of weight. about 2 months ago I decided to change my disgusting lifestyle for something that will keep me around a bit longer for my awesome little dude. On March 29, 2013 I went to my first Wing Chun class, I stopped drinking soda, and I started eating healthier. You see, I was drinking 3 mountain dews per day (and no water at all) and eating fast food 3 times per day. on April 29, 2013 I weighed in at 250 lbs. 20 lbs dropped off in a month. I am, however, hovering around there right now which kind of sucks, but I can feel muscle building again which is awesome.

 

So I have two goals that will send me into overdrive to get even more in shape faster. In October, I want to go to the Color Me Rad 5k and be able to run a decent time at it (It's not timed, but I want to do well and prove to myself I can do a 5k). From there, I want to... wait for it... do the local Spartan Sprint (www.spartanrace.com) in March 2014.

 

That's me. I know that this was written poorly and kind of all over the place, but I'm at work and I'm exhausted right now

Welcome!

 

Those are some killer goals. Good job on your progress, so far. I'm a complete newbie, when it comes to weight and have just started the changes, but I am excited. Do tell, what is Wing Chun?
