murra_tekal Posted July 14, 2014 Report Share Posted July 14, 2014 Yes, I think I will! Hi, you may call me Murra. I am an avid roleplayer on yahoo, or I was until two years ago when kid #3 blessed my family with his arrival. Since then I have been struggling with weight loss. Off and on again dieting had been ruining my fun and dragging me down in spirit. This past April I decided to try suppliments as a way of kick starting my new attempt at loosing weight. The only thing I got out of it was the jitters and a few ultra bad migraines. What's a girl to do? I thought. Well, I did what I usually do when I am wits end about something. I researched. I took what I knew from my previous attempts and went a few steps further. I cut out processed foods, turned to a more natural diet, and I started walking A LOT. 22 lbs down in two months isn't bad, right? Then came the road block, and a few small obsticles. I platued in June. I have been hovering around the same few pounds since school left out for my older children. I went back to the drawing board, and did some more research -- and that's how I came across NF.I was completely floored. Its the kind of happy excited that makes you want to squeel like GIR. I couldn't pass up the idea of the place given my love of pretending I am a fictitous person in a galaxy far far away so I decided to just stop in, sign up and say "Hai there!"Btw, sorry for the super long intro. I didn't want it to be so long, it just got out of my control. :-) thanks for reading!-M.T. Quote Link to comment

starsapart Posted July 14, 2014 Report Share Posted July 14, 2014 Welcome, Murra! Isn't the approach here awesome? I had about the same reaction as you: "Role-playing to get in shape? SIGN ME UP!" 22lbs in two months is amazing, and you're clearly not lacking in motivation. I'm sure you're going to do great. Best of luck in your endeavors!

Shello Posted July 14, 2014 Report Share Posted July 14, 2014 Welcome Murra. I came upon NF in the same manner as you. The more I looked around the more excited I got. You've done great so far. Looking forward to seeing you in the first challenge. Good Luck!

GamingPlenty Posted July 16, 2014 Report Share Posted July 16, 2014 Hey guys! Thanks for the warm welcome! I can't wait to dig into my first challenge! Btw, how did you guys get the niffty tracking graph bars in your sigs? when you go into settings > signature one of the buttons above the text box will look like a small blue bar, when you hover over it it will say "progress bar" and from there you enter the number and colour you want displayed.
