Hello everyone!! I am not sure if anyone remembers me, but apparently I have been a member since 20-freaking-13!! I come back with great shame that I haven't done much in regards to myself and my health, but I am finally ready to change this! I just got back inside from a mile walk during which I thought how lonely I was and how I felt like I had no support. If only there was a place... THERE IS! So here I am again, reintroducing myself :)

 

My name is Paula, but in the online world I tend to go by Niwa (Niiwa if taken har har), I am currently 29 years old and I live in Scottsdale, Arizona. My ultimate goal is to just be healthy. I've always wanted to be that person that goes hiking one weekend, biking the next, maybe a long swim at the lake another, just an overall adventurer. I have always loved the outdoors (especially swimming, I grew up on a beach!) but I have never really gotten out there. I told my boss that once I get under 200lbs, I am going skydiving!!

 

I enjoy the typical "lazy" things such as knitting, playing video games (anyone here play LoL?) and watching shows and what not. I love to cook, but I hate doing it because I live alone and I don't like cooking just for myself. I have a real problem cooking too much and then hating leftovers, getting a bunch of dishes dirty just for me, and then having to clean. I really need to work on this!

 

Anyway, I don't want to bore ya'll with a book, but I'm really looking forward to being more active, here and in my life. Hope to find some people that I can relate to and get the motivation I need! Woo!

I wanted to go skydiving for my 18th birthday, but my brother bought me hang gliding lessons instead - in hindsight, that was WAY better than a one-off experience. :)

 

Looking forward to seeing you on the boards, I'm always happy to chat (DM or otherwise) about cooking for one, knitting, and becoming an adventurer. :eagerness:

...but I'm adorable! Ask anyone who doesn't know me...

Hey @Niwa!  Welcome back!  

 

Are you joining in the latest challenge?  They changed the format so they only last 4 weeks now instead of 6, and they made a new guild called the Rebels and made the Adventurers more about walking, camping, adventuring :D 

 

Apart from that I think you'll find most things are the same as they were back in 2013.
