Good luck with it and I'm going to look forward to you playing again as soon as you can.

Sheth you may not remember calling me on Son of Gnome's phone, but I have been I huge fan of your's since I got into the Starcraft community. I hope that everything goes well and I even recommended one of my really close friends to this diet who has similar health concerns as you do. I know this is asking for a lot, but if my friend was to go through with this diet would you be willing to answer any questions and be sort of his role model please?

Best of Luck,

Pandas of War :D

Good luck Sheth!

As someone who struggled from wrist problems my whole life I can give some insight on something that might help. I broke my wrist playing hockey (i was 16) and it has bothered me on and off for years (I am now 26), it got especially bad around the time SC2 launched, because of the repetition and wrist cranking. I started to do a little grappling (jiu jitsu) and my wrist was really unable to handle the strain. I found a small amount of pushups or balance exercises (crab walk) a day (even 5-10) along with getting a few 2-5 pound waits and just moving it around and doing rotations cleared up the problem. Im not talking curls, im talking 180 rotations like a clock. The issue was fixed by strengthing the muscle endurance, so when you have those long sessions, its not affecting you as badly. That along with a daily heat pad directly after the exercises cleared my 10 year wrists problems in about 4 weeks.

I just thought I would offer what worked for me, in case you would like to utilize it. Best of luck

Hey Sheth, you should keep bloggin your progress, not only so we can motivate you but I think reflecting on the whole process can be a real eye opener at times.

Also you are my favorite SC2 streamer / player still and that there is the truth!
So I wish you best off luck with losing weight and remember these things take time!

You can do it Sheth! Even if you'll lose the adorable bear physique.

This sounds suspiciously like the Atkins diet craze from some 10 years back: no carbs, lots of protein and fat. People saw huge losses in the first two weeks or so then ran into problems. I really hope it's sustainable. My experience with diets is that if you're losing more than 2lbs/week you'll start suffering quickly.

Please let us know how it turns out! We love our Sheth.
I try to be rage-free as I game. As you can imagine, this is difficult.

I do wish you the best on your goal to lose weight, but you'll forgive me if I'm a little bit skeptical of your resolve to stick with it. You posted almost the exact same type of blog a little over a year ago in dec 2011. You said you would keep everyone updated of your progress and encouraged people to lose weight with you and post their progress too. You made like one update and then never again looked at that blog.

In that blog you stated you weighed 315 and weren't happy about it. 1 year later, you post the same blog again saying you're 312 and you're not happy about it, so in the span of an entire year you didn't stick to your original plan at all and lost no weight. I'm all for people losing weight, but it always starts with effort., so it was disappointing to see you didn't stick with it last year. Hopefully, it works out for you this time, but if it doesn't, you only have to look into the mirror about why it failed.

Hey man, all the best. Keeping up with exercising can be tough, but if you find something you love to do it helps a lot. For me that turned out to be lifting weights, but if you enjoy running or cycling stick with that. If you aren't doing something you enjoy at least a little bit, it becomes really hard to maintain a healthier lifestyle. When I would be bored of lifting weights I would just try to think about how much better it would make me at boxing, for example, and that would get me through on those days. Keep at it and you will notice results very quickly because of your current weight. Don't get discouraged if you plateau, and keeping track of your weight can be really great to motivate you but don't get too obsessed with it, the goal is to be overall healthier right? I have no doubt you can do it man, but you have to do it for yourself (I know that sounds horribly, horribly cheesy, but it's true.) Good luck! Looking forward to hearing about your progress, and I hope your hand feels better soon.

Awesome to hear Sheth! I discovered this diet a year ago and I haven't looked back since. I lost weight so quick it was stunning, all the while still feeling awesome. The biggest thing was that it completely changed my mindset on how I view food and how much of it is processed crap.

I'm sure Robbie suggested this, but some great books to read are The Primal Blueprint by Mark Sisson (also check out his blog) and The Paleo Solution by Robb Wolf. Easy to read and full of great information about the diet.

Grok on!

I just deleted 600 words because I realized that all I really want to say is - "All the best!"

Keep us updated.

whatever diet you do, dont lose weight too fast. dont force it, that's not healthy either.

e.g. a friend of mine just cut the lunch (main meal in germany) completely out. he lost weight slowly but steadily over the last two year and now, he will be rejoining our casual football matches each sunday morning.

DO IT SHETH, IT'S WORTH THE EFFORT!

Hey Sheth!

I want to start off by saying It takes a man do decide to change himself for the better and it takes a real man to go through with it. You have always been one of my favorite streamers. You and Idra are the ying and yang of my Starcraft fix. You are doing great things and congrats on the weight loss. If you are ever in the Michigan area consider me a walking partner.
