DuManchu

I'm a 27 year old Web and Graphic Designer for an Incentive Company Supplier in Olathe, KS (South KC Metro area). I live with my wonderful wife and a zoo consisting of two Greyhounds and three Cats, all rescues. I have a ton of retro gaming systems, I love to BBQ and Grill, and I have about a billion other hobbies (cars, computers, photography, you name it). Overall, I'm pretty much a huge dork.

As I edge closer to 30 I've decided that I am sick of being chubby, out of shape, and continuing with my unhealthy habits.

I used to be a starting varsity soccer player, a long distance runner on the track team, and a bench player in basketball (talent was never there... lol).

I have enjoyed my 20's thus far, but it's time to get back in shape.

I FINALLY quit smoking... (quit on 11/1/09)
I quit drinking beer during the week (well... no more than 2-3 during the week)
The wife and I no longer are eating out 1-2 times a week (1-2 per month max now)
I am eating more greens, less reds
I will still BBQ and Grill, but will make smarter choices

This time it's going to work, I can feel it in my bones.

UPDATE: And it is working! I've lost a total of 28 lbs since February/March and continuing on. I'm also in pretty good shape now, still working to my fitness goals, but I'm getting there.
