edited November 2024 in Introduce Yourself
Hi there.

I had another profile here which was 2,5yo, had good intentions when i started it but 2,5 years later im in the worst shape ever.

To make a long story short, till 2012 i was homeless on and off for about 10 years, smoked, used pot and drank alot of alcohol.

Dec 2014 i got a home for myself again finally, although i had nothing i was looking forward to it and also with good intension to lose weight.

Unfortunately alcohol and depression got the better of me again and i went hardcore!

But im tired of it now, im 35 and in the worst shape ever, no stamina, way overweight and its time to change.

I had some bad luck recently because i have a infection in my shoulder, got meds for it today (11may) after slowing it down for 2 months. Doctor advice is, no more weightlifting till its healed and i can only do cardio and legs.

Im going to give it my all once again because waiting on a perfect moment doesnt exist because there is none.

I live in zone GMT+1 but everyone is welcome!

Cheers.

    If you overcame everything you posted, you'll overcome your physical journey. I was in great shape until college and its been downhill since. Just restarted my journey a couple months ago. I'll add you and we can all do this together!
