DUUUUUUUUUUUUUUDE, WHERE'S MY CARBS?

Options
This my introduction thread, I've been a member for a while now, but have never introduced myself and have only become active on the forums in the past week.

I lost 75 lbs doing DDP Yoga and plateaued for a bit, maintaining my weight with running and karate.

I deactivated my account and reopened it earlier this week to reset my starting weight to my new slimmer self so that I stop using and seeing the 75 lbs lost under my name as a crutch to keep cruising on this plateau.

I'm breaking through the barrier and have renewed drive to get under 200 lbs. I'm 224.2 as of this morning.

I like comics and video games, scifi and fantasy novels. Running, Karate and Yoga are my fitnesses of choice. I registered for my first 5 mile race having did a bunch of 5K's throughout the fall, the 5 Mile Turkey Trot will be my longest timed run yet.

If you like logging food, trying to be fit, and geeking out to Star Wars, send me a friend request.

    You know you could have just changed your starting weight....right? You didn't have to deactivate.

    Didn't care that much to look for it.
