TheEntomologist Posted January 9, 2014 Report Share Posted January 9, 2014 I've been following the NF blog and forums for several months now, and I've finally decided to join the community; I've perused many other fitness forums in the past, but most of them aren't in line with my interests. And besides, we all know most of those places have more trolls than Moria. NF seems like the place where I can finally feel comfortable introducing myself. so...what up, Nerd Fitness?I'm halfway through my freshman year of college, and a few weeks after arriving I decided to make a lifestyle change. September 16th I started changing my diet and began exercising. Not long after, while sifting through endless amounts of questionably scientific fitness information, I found NF and became hooked. As of today I've lost a bit over 50 pounds in a bit less than four months, which puts me just shy of 20 pounds away from my goal of 180 (I'm 5'11" with very broad shoulders, a big frame and a decent base of muscle; 180 sounds about right). I'm looking forward to becoming part of the community and support network that is NF! Oh and by the way, I'm an entomologist so I'll identify insects for you all. That sounds crazy, which it probably is. Cheers! Quote "Intelligence is not a privelege; it's a gift, to be used for the good of mankind" - Otto Octavius, Spider-Man 2 Link to comment
