It's Dangerous to Go Alone, So I came here.

[Stonie]

So I stumbled on to some website the other day I thought was pulling my leg, until I looked up at the clock and I had been reading it for hours. So I thought to myself,

 

"This Nerd Fitness fellow might be onto something." After multiple measly attempts to get my life in order I have decided I need more motivation, to document my story so I can be kept accountable of my actions and hopefully improve my quality of life and have fun doing it.

 

I was never the sporty kid in school but I was madly addicted to World of Warcraft for a long time, So it's time I put those powers of endless grinding to use for good instead of evil... I will not succumb to the dark side this time! (Even if they have cookies...) Two months ago I joined a yoga class hoping it would calm my body and mind, and hopefully give my muscles something to do, and now I want more. 

 

 

Which brings me to the here and now. Hullo, My name is Teagarden, and I would like to be part of your rebellion. I will not let you down!

 

I am going to be trying my best to work a healthy lifestyle into my random weekly schedule. Shift work means that I sometimes don't sleep till after midnight, or sleep in and miss breakfast, then eat too much and don't move enough (which is obviously the wrong way around.) And I really want to be able to run away from those fast zombies during the zombiepocalypse.

 

I also have a tendency to struggle with my motivation and stress about pointless things which leads me to sleep in and over eat. And play WoW. And The Sims. 

 

When I started yoga on a whim a month or so ago when work was really stressful and I ended up really enjoying it so I've stuck with it, and now I feel ready to work into some proper fitness stuff, with small diet changes along the way. I'm thinking, bodyweights and then proper weights once I build up some use-able strength. And barefoot running a long way off in my future sounds like it could be fun too. No shoes in the zombipocalypse. 

 

 

I'd really appreciate feedback from anyone on a similar quest (Let's party up!) with food ideas, or how to mix your workouts up, or what music you listen to while you're grinding, Or if you're just a friendly fellow and you'd like to chat, that's cool too.

 

 

EDIT:

Completely rewrote it entirely, and started a battle log.

That's a lot for an introductory post, you ought to make a Battle Log for this. Good on you for taking the first steps and joining, the next step should be finding a side kick or three or four to keep you on track and planning for your challenge. Though, I think you've got challenge-worthy goals already. Best of luck!
