nightwolf0019 Posted August 23, 2013 Report Share Posted August 23, 2013 Hello everyone, New to Nerd Fitness board, but not new to Nerd Fitness. I have been reading Nerd Fitness for about year and half now. I have recently wanted to get in shape again. During high school I was in shape and after high school I join the military and have gone down hill from there. I am currently around 200 which isn't bad, but I want to lose weight. I do like to work out but can't find the motivation again to get back out there and work out. I know my biggest problem is that I do not eat healthy. I am a very picky eater so to me its hard to choose something healthy to eat. I know that's no excuse but it's holding me back. I'm not afraid of trying new things, just rather eat things that I like. So i come here to introduce my self and get the motivation and support I need to get back in shape. I am wanting to get back to around 150-160. So thank you in advance for your support and motivation in advance, can't wait to be part of NF family and maybe one day have a story about me and my change!!! Quote Link to comment
Nuribaby Posted August 26, 2013 Report Share Posted August 26, 2013 Welcome to the boards! I'm pretty new here myself but it all seems great so far. I have some similar problems with being a picky eater - more that I get oddly particular at mealtimes about EXACTLY what I want to eat. What has worked for me is tracking the calories I eat. I've found that it's great motivation to stay on the wagon, and it's taught me about portion control... Which is a huge deal, because it means that if I really want a chili dog (or whatever) I can have one, as long as it's one and I've had healthy meals earlier in the day. I use myfitnesspal (in my signature, feel free to add me as a friend!) and knowing that you don't have to entirely forego your favorite foods makes it easier to sustain. That was... A lot longer than I intended in any case, best of luck and great to meet you!
