Spider-Doug Posted August 30, 2016 Report Share Posted August 30, 2016 Yup. I screwed up. A couple of years back I started the NF program and I probably bit off more than I could chew. Or at least a disgustingly big mouthful. It didn't work. The past couple of years have seen me drinking way more than I should and generally being quite slothful. I'm over it. While I'm by no means overweight, I'm 37 and I'm really not happy with the hideous creature that confronts me in the mirror every day. I look like I'm melting. So this is me. Starting again. Slowly but surely. Hi Quote STR0 DEX0 STA0 CON0 WIS0 CHA0 Link to comment
Kestrel Grey Posted August 30, 2016 Report Share Posted August 30, 2016 Welcome back! It is good to hear you already figured out what went wrong last time (must do ALL THE THINGS! AT ONCE!). It's a common failing, and one most of us still struggle with. We call it Ranger Brain. I look forward to seeing you around the forums, and occaisional updates on your slow-but-steady progress.

thesedateone Posted September 2, 2016 Report Share Posted September 2, 2016 Yea man, I feel that mid thirties vibe. It's all just a little bit harder than it was 5 years ago, things don't heal as fast and stuff that used to be easy kicks your behind unexpectedly. Respawning myself this week, and after 3 months on the couch, after 6 months on the couch, after 6 months on the couch; I'm taking it real easy this time. Good luck! May the Force be with you!

Anniebox Posted September 2, 2016 Report Share Posted September 2, 2016 You didn't screw up, you just took a bit of a detour, it happens to a lot of us, I'm a recent respawner too so I know how it goes! What matters now is that you're getting back on track and you have recognised where you slipped up before, that sets you up nicely to start again I think. You can absolutely do it, we'll be rooting for you. 1 Quote February Challenge LogMy Character: Link to comment
Spider-Doug Posted September 2, 2016 Author Report Share Posted September 2, 2016 Thanks for the support, everyone. It's nice to know people have my back. This is past week has been really focussed on setting some new goals and getting my head in the zone to make changes. Yesterday I was walking past a kickboxing gym and decided to take a free class, just on a whim. It was super fun, and I'll be adding kickboxing to my list of potential activities for the future.
