Hi everyone, I'm very glad I found this board; it looks like there is a lot of good information and advice to be had here. I've been lurking around for a few days and finally decided to register and introduce myself.
I'm 26 years old, living in Ft. Lauderdale, a full time grad student. I have only recently become interested in fitness/bodybuilding since losing 40 pounds. I'm still quite overweight and have a long way to go. I'm 5'2", 204 lbs. I have managed to lose the 40 in 4 months with a moderate diet (1500-1800 cal/day), cardio 3-4x/week and cycling 1-2x/week.
My long term goals are to lose most of this nasty fat and build muscle mass (I'm sure you haven't heard that before, right?
). Since it seems to work for a lot of people, I'm going to initially follow the BFL plan and see how it goes. I have modest expectations at this point. I do have a lot of questions and there are a lot of things I don't know, but my plan is to lurk some more and read a lot more posts before I start firing off my questions to everyone.
I'm glad to be here and looking forward to getting to know you.
