Chen Wangting Posted May 10, 2015 Report Share Posted May 10, 2015 Hey, my name is Patrick. I'm 34 years and live in hannover, its roughly 130 miles south of hamburg. I work as a software programmer. My long hours sitting at work and my love for beer and italian food have not been to kind on my body. I've been practising taijiquan for the last 8 years twice a week and went to some pushhands competitions. But that wasn't enough to stop putting on weight. On the nerdy side: I'm a big SciFi Fan (Books/Movies) and love Star Wars. Fantasy is not bad, SciFi stole my heart first. I'am playing pen&paper roleplaying games for 23 years now. I also love video games and occasionally read a comic or graphic novel. I want to educate myself more about diet, start bodyweight training and learn how to make changes and new habbits stick 1 Quote Link to comment

fengor Posted May 10, 2015 Report Share Posted May 10, 2015 welcome from me as well *waves from baden wuerttenberg* taijiquang and pushhands sounds awesome. I finished reading "The art of learning" recently and his description of pushhands made me curious to know more about it. Quote There is one rule, above all others, ...

Basement Cat Posted May 11, 2015 Report Share Posted May 11, 2015 Welcome to the rebellion! From what you are saying, it sounds like your diet is what needs to change. You can still enjoy beer and Italian food, but in lesser amounts and a less frequent basis. Just cutting back a bit on your food intake will make a difference!

Chen Wangting Posted May 11, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 11, 2015 @Cat: Thanks. You are right. Dieting is my main issue. I tend to fall of the horse, when my job gets stressful. Thats when i tend to eat out a lot. And i think the food in company restaurant also did its part. Anyway, i will open up my battle log this week. Quote Link to comment
