Life is swell:
-Down about 20 pounds and up lots of muscle
-Bought my first house before turning 26
-Promotion continues to look more and more likely for me, although the whole thing is this sort of nebulous semi-secret ordeal.

Exactly. By day 30 it ends up at something ridiculous like 5 minutes. By then I will very likely give it up just because that sounds incredibly boring but we'll see. :)
I tried the paleo thing and found that I spent so much time worrying about food that there was no way it was worth it. Nutritionally, it seems mostly sound, but it really took south of the enjoyment out of my life that I decided not to care. Have you had similar feelings at all?
Not trying to discourage you or anything, I'm honestly wondering if I'm the only person in the universe so wimpy about it.

Yep, jealous of all the boxing talk. I'm obligated to do it now. :)
In the meantime I'm doing a couple 30 day challenges in addition to my usual and am finding the plank surprisingly difficult. Up to 40 seconds or so it's easy enough, but much more than that gets a bit hard. Clearly I have no core muscles

Thanks @beez!

The only fitness thread a search turned up was ancient so here we go.
Anybody into fitness? Weight loss, running, weight lifting, yoga, anything. I want to know what you like and what you're doing with it lately!
Me: I'm working on losing weight and getting stronger, but I also just really enjoy working out. Bodyweight or free weights. I want to set up a home gym eventually. :)
I read the Nerd Fitness blog regularly and do the nerdiest workouts possible, so if anyone else is a fitness nerd I automatically want to be besties lol

Whoops! Sorry bout that! I'm still in quarantine here so I didn't think to check the other forums for such a thread.
