heywo Posted July 3, 2011 Report Share Posted July 3, 2011 Oh hey! So I'm a long time tracker of the website since it was mentioned on Art of Manliness, but finally decided to join the forums and participate in some of the discussions. The content of the blog has always been spectacular and I'm looking forward to becoming more involved in the community. I'm originally from Wisconsin, but spend most of my time in Michigan these days. I'm wrapping up my double major in Computer Science and Discrete Mathematics this next fall at Michigan Tech and am currently spending my summer as an IT intern at Jackson National Life Insurance in Lansing. As you might be able to gather, I'm a computer programmer! I work in automated systems at Jackson and do indie game development on the side when I'm at home. I started this summer at 250 pounds and decided to put my foot down. I had promised myself I would never reach that mark, and suddenly I was there! As of today I am officially down to 236 pounds and am training for my first ever 5K on July 24 (I'm gunning for < 30 minutes for a time). As a celebration of reaching the double digits in pounds lost, I finally ordered my Nerd Fitness t-shirt and am excited to be able to rep this fantastic website and community! Looking forward to getting to know you guys! Quote Link to comment
CapN_Tommy_Sunshine Posted July 3, 2011 Report Share Posted July 3, 2011 Welcome to the Rebellion! I had a bunch of friends at Michigan Tech, back in the day. Apparently, that school can cause a bit of alcoholism (if you are not an outdoor winter sport type of person). But seriously, let us know how we can help. Quote Link to comment
