Jaded_Scout Posted March 6, 2015 Report Share Posted March 6, 2015 Hello, I just signed up. I probably should not have made my name Jaded_Scout as I'm not a scout yet, but I'm pretty sure that's my calling I'm a slow Orc right now. But I'm a smaller than I was at the beginning of the year so I might shrink right out of my race I guess I can share some of my story. In 2011 I was a giant blob monster. (I don't know the scientific name.) I was pushing 400 pounds and had trouble breathing on the short walk to the bathroom and back. I decided I was done with that. I started pretty simple with just cutting down on how much I ate, and walking to work instead of getting a ride. I recently started the Zombies, RUN! 5k training program and I am four weeks in. I can now jog (about a 14min/mile pace) a whole half mile! I am now 290 pounds and still going down. I decided under 300 "promoted" me to Orc. One day I'll be an elf! I currently have a fitbit/myfitnesspal account and have been logging all my food and exercise there. Thanks for reading! EDIT: To clarify I started this year at 312.2 and am now at 290! 1 Quote My MFP | My FitBit | Current Challenge | Zombies, Run!Level 0 Orc RecruitSTR: 0 | DEX: 0 | STA: 0 | CON: 0 | WIS: 0 | CHA: 0 Link to comment
Grifball Posted March 6, 2015 Report Share Posted March 6, 2015 Wow! Congratulations on the 100lb+ loss so far! That's a great start to your journey. Welcome! P.S. Pretty sure giant blob monster is the scientific term, at least as far as 1950s sci-fi movie scientists are concerned. 1 Quote 5'11'' Male SW: 251 | CW: 199 | GW: 175 Battle Log: Grifball's Freelancer Training "I WILL EAT YOUR UNHAPPINESS." - Michael J.

Thin Guy Majig Posted March 6, 2015 Report Share Posted March 6, 2015 Hi soon to be unJaded Scout. I always thought trolls (the real ones not Internet ones haha) were cool.
