Hola!
My name is Daniel and this is my adventure to lose some weight and become more healthy/fit. I am 19 years old and am a sophomore in college. I used to be pretty fit back when I was involved in sports in high school, but that was changed with a bad knee injury. I have gotten to used to chilling on the couch all day and playin on the computer. I am also IN LOVE with food. I love all flavors and experimenting with cooking. I don't however cook the healthiest things. Also, along with every other college student
, love to drink which might make things more difficult.
I haven't really dieted in the past, so I'm sure I'm going to need help through all of this. Hopefully this will keep me from cheating (as much) and keep me motivated. I plan to be very active around the forums and can't wait to talk to you all.
