The Mighty Haru Posted May 18, 2006 Share Posted May 18, 2006 The Mighty Haru has arrived!! My buddy Raw AMbition told me about this site a while back when I told him I was thinking about turning into a veghead. I'm a Mixed Martial Artist who has been completely inactive for almost an entire year now (many injuries from training, and family that just doesn't understand the sport). During this period of "inactiveness" the Mighty Haru gained a few poundages. 30 of them to be exact. I went from 190lbs (that's what I weighed in at my last fight in April of 2005) to 220lbs as of September 2005!!! I started a new job in Sept 2005 and they have a gym there....so now there's no excuses right? Started training on day one and blew my knee out on the treadmill. I guess my new weight was a little too much. Been training ever since Monday to Friday and now I'm down to 210lbs. The muscle is up....but the fat is up as well. I can't really do much cardio now that my knees, hip and ankle are all wonky. So that's why I'm here.......to help improve my diet! I'm not 100% sure I'll be able to go 100% vegan but I would sure like to try. Gonna go and look around a bit and see what this place has to offer. As of last week I have gone from the traditional 3 big meals and the odd snack, to 6 small healthy meals a day and one cheat day (ala Body-for-life style). Sorry for the long post!!!!!!! I kinda jumped around a bit. Anyhoo....gonna go find some of Raw Ambition's posts and "harass him a bit". See you all later... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Mighty Haru Posted May 18, 2006 Author Share Posted May 18, 2006 Thank you!Jeebus do all vegans look as HAWT as you? I just made a happy b-day thread to him , but I titled it after his real-life nickname of "Beamish". I hope he finds it! He has lots of nicknames that guy.

The Mighty Haru Posted May 20, 2006 Author Share Posted May 20, 2006 Thank you!! So how come everyone else can post a massive pic but all I can do is a 6kb jobbie? (avatar) Do i need to post over a certain amount before being aloud to have a funky avatar? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sinisterkungfu Posted May 20, 2006 Share Posted May 20, 2006 Thank you!! So how come everyone else can post a massive pic but all I can do is a 6kb jobbie? (avatar) Do i need to post over a certain amount before being aloud to have a funky avatar? The trick is, when you link the picture for your avatar, use the "Link to off-site Avatar:" option.

Raw Ambition Posted May 20, 2006 Share Posted May 20, 2006 How in the world do you do that?? <---- Computer Dummy I had to get the "Dummies guide to The Dummies Guide to Computers" Book Where's the "ANY" key?!?!!?!? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have to have the picture hosted on another website (but not something like Geocities or Angelfire, which don't allow remote linking). Photobucket or Imageshack work. Then in your profile, go down to the avatar area at the bottom, and put the URL of your remotely hosted image into the box that says "Link to off-site Avatar:" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raw Ambition Posted May 20, 2006 Share Posted May 20, 2006 You can't have it on your HD?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sinisterkungfu Posted May 20, 2006 Share Posted May 20, 2006 You can't have it on your HD?? You can, but then it has to be within the tiny size limits the board allows. If you want a larger picture it has to be remotely hosted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
