Silver Posted August 1, 2013 Report Share Posted August 1, 2013 Hello hello! I'm sorry to say, but I've already used up my full Spanish vocabulary in that greeting, if you're willing to forgive the Spanglish indiscretion. So a little about myself! I've been following this site for a couple of months. I wish I could state how I found it, but I simply can't recall. I think that it might have been when I was initially looking for a simple workout routine, which proved fruitless since I just didn't get it. At all. Yes, I'm one of those people who are constantly confused, if they want to be. Getting back on track! I relocated from East to West Coast a little over half a year ago and as I have extra time on my hands, I've decided to try to get my life healthy. This started with me joining a nearby gym a couple of months back and currently, I have personal trainer sessions once a week which will end at the start of September. Now, I love and hate my trainer, but I need some way of keeping myself accountable and thought a community is just what I need since I don't have a workout buddy in my new state. Paying for a gym membership, you would think, logically, I would try to get my money's worth and go often, but nope! That is exactly untrue. I go for my session and that's about it. So when a co-worker recently mentioned a rock climbing class, I was all over it, especially since the couple of times I've done it in the past was so enjoyable. Unfortunately, or fortunately?, I have a couple of weeks before that class starts up and figured that now was a good time to start and overhaul my lifestyle. Currently, I ...am 5 foot 1 inch-ish (I fluctuate towards the lower end of the spectrum)weigh 106 pounds, give or take a pound or twohave high cholesterol and have chronic iron deficient anemialove feasting on bread, french fries, and all sorts of crappy carbscan't do a single pull-up worth my lifemodify push-ups for fists as my wrist are weak/hurtwas born with bad knees, seriously...regularly eat one weak ass meal a day, yet snack constantlysleep either too much or too little, either ways I'm tired and grumpy all day ... as you can see, I am NOT in my best shape. I am here to not lose weight, but to develop and maintain a healthy lifestyle, as well as improving my fitness level, so that I don't fall from very high places (I'm terrified of heights, you see) and be confident enough to wear fitted clothing (yes, I may be petite/small, but that doesn't make me feel very good about my physical appearance). Anyways! I look forward to getting to know you all, learning lots, and SURPASSING my goals and shortcomings Quote Link to comment
