zeroh13 Posted August 13, 2015 Report Share Posted August 13, 2015 So, to start off with, I'm obviously new to NF. I have no idea what to do with any of the race or class/profession or challenge stuff, but this seems like a really cool place so I joined. I've been actively working on losing weight for over 3 1/2 months, and shed 16-18 pounds in that time. I'm about 12 pounds from my goal, and on track to reach that before Samhain (Halloween). Most of the weight loss has been from calorie tracking (using MFP), with very sporadic exercise. After I hit my goal, I want to start really focusing on weight training. Primarily bodyweight training as I'm too poor to buy equipment/weights and, for good reasons, I can't train at gyms. I was doing (a toned down version of the) beginner bodyweight circuit, but I fell off of that after a month. Fitness stuff aside... I've been playing games my whole life, and watching anime for almost as long (the advantages of having gamer parents). I used to play a lot of D&D and Pathfinder before moving out of my parents place years ago. Now it's mostly a lot of video games with my wife. Other things of note... I'm a 28 year old asexual, with a non-binary gender, living in Maryland, and (finally) graduated from college last year. I'm also a vegetarian. So, hello!

couchsurfer Posted August 13, 2015 Report Share Posted August 13, 2015 Hey Zeroh! Welcome to NF. I started with calorie tracking too. I bet you can get back to that beginner body weight training. Quote Weightloss Goal 65%65% Link to comment
Tanktimus the Encourager Posted August 13, 2015 Report Share Posted August 13, 2015 Welcome to the rebellion. If you're a little lost by the whole guild thing, why not head over to the recruit section of the challenge forums and see what the six week challenges are all about? 1 Quote Current Challenge "By the Most-Righteous-and-Blessed Beard of Sir Tanktimus the Encourager!" - Jarl Rurik Harrgath Link to comment
zeroh13 Posted August 14, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 14, 2015 Thanks for the welcome! I could get back to the bodyweight training, especially if it stays unseasonably cool (knock on wood). Part of the reason I stopped was that it would get way too hot since there's no AC in that room. I'll go poke my head into that recruit section. Quote Current Challenge: Zeroh, stick to the routine! Link to comment

zeroh13 Posted August 14, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 14, 2015 what is non binary gender? i get the asexual part but the non binary is alien term for me. welcome to the rebellion! waiting to hear about your progression! Non binary gender is a broad term that covers many different genders. The concept of binary gender says that gender is male or female. But in reality things can get really fuzzy and there are a lot more than two genders. So, non-binary gender means something outside the binary, or in other words not strictly male or female. In my case, I'm bigender (which is a mix of two genders) with my gender being a mix of male and neutrois (which is basically a lack of gender but with gender dysphoria thrown in). I hope that explains a little! Quote Current Challenge: Zeroh, stick to the routine! Link to comment
