Ah, good to hear. I recently started something similar, though a little more hardcore. I've been eating nothing but fruits/vegetables/nuts and making myself do pushups/situps, and I started running today. I've been doing it for two weeks now and I feel better than I have in several years.

Getting your body and diet sorted out really do work wonders, hope we can both keep it up! GLHF

No questions. Just lettin you know that you are awesome =) Keep it up man. Two friends of mine are on Paleo aswell. Not really to lose weight but just to feel healthier overall. For them it works really well.

Do you think you will stay on that specific diet for the rest of your life or do you see it as a temporary step (possibly towards a just generally healthier diet)? If you see it as a temporary diet, have you discussed possible yo-yo effects after stopping said diet?

Good luck Sheth! I can't wait for you to come back but I have the utmost respect for your decision to take a break. After all, you gotta be happy with your body and mind to be successful.

Sheth hwaiting!!!

A lot of people have lost weight, you can do it too. Especially since you have the dedication to become one of the best in what you do (play sc2). Use some of that dedication and you will get result ^_^

One of the things that I changed in my mindset when I went in to this was : I want to make this how I'll eat for the rest of my life. So I never thought ah that ____ over there looks delicious I can't wait till I lose weight and can eat it. Now I just think eh I have better stuff that I can eat. And that has helped a bit too! Hope it works out well for ya!

Sorry to hear that you've had to take a break from SC2 for a little while. I know you can get over this, and I hope you can get back to streaming soon although health definitely should take priority. You've always been my favorite streamer, and I've definitely missed it. I wish you the best of luck! Get healthy so i can see you out at another live event sometime

Sheth Fighting!

I have heard many good things from the Paleo diet. But be wary that apparently people hit a wall (the "carb flu") when a couple of weeks in, because of the whole body metabolic change. So you have to try your best to get over that point, no matter how shitty it makes you feel.

On the other hand, I think making small changes to one's habits is a much better path to success than trying to radically change everything, so personally if I would go for paleo, I would start gradually substracting the carbs from my diet, rather than going all out, so that you have more time to get used to it. However if you think you can soldier it up, go for it!

Anyway, good luck with that Sheth, and best wishes!!

You can do it Sheth! Remember that if you want something as bad as you want to breath, you will succeed!
