Kaile.ann Posted February 27, 2014 Report Share Posted February 27, 2014 The past week has been spent discovering and inhaling the content here! I'm amazed at how much is here - it's allowed me to analyze my 2ND real attempt at getting healthy. (And revel in the great nerdiness!)About me: I'm 24, living on a boat in Alaska, have 2 dogs that motivate me to be active, and I'm amping up for another go at changing my life. Now, I've always been overweight - I honestly do not remember a time when I was in a normal/healthy zone. My biggest was right after high school at a women's size 20. When I was twenty I started going to the gym everyday, eating slightly better, and ended up whittling down to a size 11 jean (weighed 180lbs at my lightest). I'm now 20lbs under my highest weight.Basic points/goals/wishes:I miss running, and it not hurting. I am tired at having pitifully weak upper body strength.I want to hike the Pacific Crest Trail.I want to Master the crow position in yogaAnd be the best damn Paladin possible!I've made a lot of changes in the past few years, but I still have a lot to learn. Diet is hard for me. I've started moving towards healthier foods, if I can't read it I won't eat it, but portions is the tricky part. Even at my heaviest I would barely eat 800 calories in a day for weeks on end (not that it was nutritious food any way), then OVER do it at parties or out with friends.I've successfully cut out 98% of sugars/junk food in my diet - aside from wine, but what the last time I ate a pop tart was my LAST. I wanted to vomit and was sick for the rest of the day!I'm so looking forward to tracking progress here!I'll be seeing you lovelies around soon 2 Quote Link to comment

Kaile.ann Posted February 27, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 27, 2014 Thanks for the warm welcome!Deslok - living on a boat is freaking awesome! (At least I think so) the lack of space pushes me to do more outdoor exercises (hiking, dog walks etc) but as for strength training I have to go to the gym and brave the weight room - something I'm still working on.Raev - Quite right! Bow ties and fezzes honey! Quote Link to comment
