Heimir Posted December 9, 2014 Report Share Posted December 9, 2014 Hi My name is Heimir I am 35 year old and I live in Iceland My story is that from an early age I was always a bit on the heavier side. Not really what I would call "to big" until I hit my twenties thats when I really started to gain weight at an alarming rate and by the time I was 25 I was 225 pounds. just before my 26th birthday me and my girlfriend had out first child (Alexander) and it was at that point that I decided that enough was enough. I joined a gym , and in 12 months I managed to drop 55 pounds. I kept that weight off for 5 years. In 2010 I went back to school and I have been gaining the weight back ever since. I am currently 230 pounds and I feel like crap. I do almost no exercising, most of the day is spent in front of the computer working on my final project. I feel like I am back were started 9 years ago, I guess in a sense I am. I have a 12 week old baby daughter, I'm overweight and I get a real bad sinking feeling in my stomach every time I catch my reflection in a mirror. Only this time it's harder to get going, my back is messed up and I have a metal plate and 5 pins in my right ankle after breaking it while WALKING BACKWARDS and falling on it lol (Sad I know). But when I look at my daughter I feel like for the first time in years I have the strength to do it all over again. I don't know exactly what Nerd Fitness is but what I have seen and read so far has definitely caught my interest and I am excited to get going (Scared but excited). I hope that I will be able to give as much as I will surely receive from this community. Heimir Sigurðsson Quote Link to comment
