Welcome to ADietGeek dot com !

I started this site on February 24th, 2009 because I got sick and tired of being sick and tired! Sound familiar?

Well I am talking about being sick and tired of not feeling good because of poor diet and health, being overweight, lack of exercise and just generally ‘blah’.  I am currently 38 years old but I have never really been on a diet or even thought about it.  It just never occurred to me.  I would just eat what I feel like and not think too much about it.  A few weeks ago my weight was 197 and my height 5’10” (cool how my height doesn’t change anymore eh? .

Am I the poster child for poor eating and exercise habits? Well I am not too sure. Maybe I am not.  I would say that I fall somewhere in the middle.  Technically right now I am about 197-165= 32 pounds overweight.  On my last trip to the doctor I was told that my ideal healthy weight is 165 for a height of 5’10”.  That seems really low to me, but I will take the doctors word for it.  However I am currently targeting 175 as my goal weight and trying various strategies to get there.

Well I don’t want to bore you too much more about myself.  I am from upstate new york, work in a group home on the weekends and online during the week. I like to learn and read and love good brain food wherever I can find it.

But enough about me. The site is not really about me. It is about you, about trends in dieting and fitness and healthy living.

ADietGeek is a site about dieting health and fitness trends news and information.

You can do it! Fighter Spirit!

is the sub heading for this site because that is what I believe. If you set your mind to something you will achieve it. It does not just have to be dieting, it could be anything else.

But since this site is all about dieting and fitness and healthy eating, the motto is definitely relevant to that.  You need to lose 10, 20, 50, 100, 200 pounds? Well I am with you, the people who visit this site are with you, we are all with you.

Taking action towards healthy living and lifestyle is really good karma. Not just for you, but for those around you as well. It is a way to send good energy all around.

What you think about, you bring about, what you focus on grows. Whatever it is you want in life, just visualize it, see it and step into it and it will be yours.

I was going to outline in detail everything that will be on the ADietGeek site, but instead I am just telling you generally what the site is about.  To be honest I really do not know exactly how the site will shape up over time. But you see when I started it and so by the time you read this you will probably have a much better idea based on what type of content is on the site .

Thank you for visiting. Your comments and participation is welcome.

You can do it! Fighter spirit!
