Warg Posted August 19, 2014 Report Share Posted August 19, 2014 Hi there!I don't know how to start so this may come off a little unstructured.I'm a 43 yo male from Germany. Due to health issues I started eating primal/paleo at the beginning of 2012 and found Nerd Fitness surfing the web for info. Because of my terrible physical condition at the time I couldn't jump right in. Over two month I got healthier and went from 86.5kg (190lb) down to 76.5 (168lb), which is about normal weight for my height (175cm, 5'9'') totally by accident. I went back to doing sports (medieval martial arts) and continued eating clean for the better part of a year.Since then I met my now fiancee, moved in with her and her children (another city, no medieval martial arts school around) and kind of fell off the wagon with the paleo diet. I still didn't consume grains (which was the crucial part in getting healthier for me) but cheated way too much and upped my carb intake due to the new life situation, tighter schedules and lazyness. This way, I was back at 86kg after less than a year. I always wanted to go back to clean eating but didn't make it.Then, 2 weeks ago, my fiancee got sick of being overweight and said "let's do that thing you did before". This kick-started primal/paleo for both of us and we both had our first successes weight-loss and healthwise. (She doesn't speak english on a level that it would make sense for her to register here, plus she isn't a nerd, but I may or may not ask questions on her behalf).A few months ago, the company I worked for went out of business, so I'm unemployed at the moment and a gym membership or enlisting in a martial arts class is out ofthe question at the moment. Then I remembered this site and decided to take the plunge this time.So here I am, enlisting in the Rebel Army!I'm into norse mythology and the concept of werewolves, hence my nickname. If I get around to think up a fantasy storyline for my transformation, this will probably reflect my love for these topics, too. I really want to get back into creative writing, so that might be a good excercise, although I usually write in german.
