i used to think people who did stuff like this (this being the whole counting calories, having a fitness blog, etc...) were neurotic and time wasting.

no offense meant.

i just thought i could be doing something more fun then worrying over this stuff. like video games or surfing the internet.

....

ya.

now i know I've just been being really, really lazy.

and since i can no longer pull that nonsense since I'm joining the coolest job ever (Marines ftw!!!), this now humbled newb comes before you all hopefully asking for tips and tricks of the trade.

my goal in life is to be a bamf. that is all.

ps. kudos to everyone whos been doing this. youve all just become my role models
(pps. thanks for reading!)

    I used to think that, too. That people should be able to control their weight just by making healthier choices and exercising more. Now, I realize it takes whatever it takes. If counting calories if what it takes to get control, than that is a good thing!

    a b.a.m.f. or bada$$motherf***** is the technical term for someone who is freaking AWESOME.

    It is a lofty goal and hard to obtain, but i think it will be fun to try and acheive it. :D
  • Don't worry you are not alone. I was also like that before but my case I learned everything including being fit the hard way. Keep it up & I know you can do it!

    "bamf" is the sound Nightcrawler makes when he teleports. I'm not sayin'...I'm just sayin'.

    I'm glad you've decided to make us your role models, compared to that basket of breads on the table...

    ("roll" models)

    (yes, Hooked on Phonics worked for me too!)
