I'm dogsitting for my parents while they are away on a Caribbean cruise. I let the dog (miniature poodle) sleep with me on the bed, and everyday when we wake up, he does this stretch and yawn thing that is just too cute. That dog loves me unconditionally and makes me smile every time.

Wow, double-unders are so difficult! Good job on the 47 unbroken!

Finished in 24:32. Broke up the work into sets of 3 (3 sets of 7, 3 sets of 6, etc). Was nice, because every successive round was less work! Was convinced to give "Annie" a shot afterwords and did a set of 40 unbroken DU's, which is a PR for me!

I managed 78. Did my first sets of T2B today, with toes actually reaching the bar!

I got 82 reps. Those 225lb DL's really had me gassed. I still felt ok at the end of the workout so maybe I shouldn't have rested so much between each 225lb lift. My PR is a 275lb sumo DL, so I was really hoping to get down at least one rep at 275-lb, but alas that didn't happen. Oh well! I wonder what 14.4 will bring... burpees of some sort!

They also have Sol sunflower milk now too (I found it at Costco). Creamier than almond milk and ha a nuttier taste.

Congrats! I want to hit 300lb DL by the end of summer myself! Thanks for the inspiration

Welcome to the community

Congrats on your weight loss and welcome to the community!

Congrats on taking the first steps to becoming healthier. A walk/jog is a great way to begin! You'll be running non-stop in no time Oh, and you'll learn to love muscle stiffness; kind of a reinforcement loop telling you that you worked hard!

Welcome aboard! I eventually want to enter into a career in law enforcement as well, but with the Toronto Police Services. What type of bike do you ride, I have a GSX650f. Man, I would love to visit the Yukon and see the Northern Lights. Have fun on your journey of -25lbs!

Welcome! Being able to do a hand stand pushup is one of my goals too!

Welcome! Martial arts and kickboxing sounds pretty neat! I will have to try it

Wow, your story is very inspiring. Good on your for taking life by the horns and showing who's boss! Good luck on your journey

Once you've been off sugar for a while, you will notice that foods you once enjoyed are now too sweet and you won't crave them anymore. Gets so much easier!
