Hmmm let's see.. I was going to tell the forum that I will be missing in action for 5 days for jamboree scout camp in a mountain, but I guess I didn't have time to announce it. Located somewhere quite remote, far outside the city. And my phone broke. Here's the full update on the last 10+ days! And now I'm back! I signed up for out of the blue around a week before the event, with 2 friends at my class. I think I was kind of bored, and I don't enjoy my days at home lately. I have some problems inside my family, not a big thing but it bothers me a lot that time, that I decide to "runaway", at least doing good things. It is really easy for me to losing track of things if somebody breaking into my system, but today I am back. There are only 1 week left and Nope, I haven't yet. But I still have a week left and I think I can do it. And did I make something to sell? I'm on progress, I'm discussing about it every day at this week, but still can't even pick up my pencil. I'm kinda weak on managing stress lately, somehow.. it was kinda harder than before but I still have time eh! Here's some summary of my missing in action. 2017.09.27 2017.09.28 2017.09.29 2017.09.30 2017.10.01 On these days, can't choose the food menu. All organized, but I guess it kinda healthy. They know what food are efficient for mountain hike. I can say, the diet plan is all safe. It just, I forgot about hiking culture around here loves to eat unhealthy snacks each time we go for the long walk. And I haven't think about preparing foods by myself for it. Need to be careful for my next trip! 2017.10.02 2017.10.03 2017.10.04 2017.10.05 These days spent on catching up classes, fixing my phone, bed rest from the tiredness, and by the way my right arm injured from the camp so I can't do much things. And being stressed again. Huh, I wasted 4 days on stressing about it... I regret on not having time to update daily, because I suppose to still have time! At least, get back on tracking my foods. At least I still stick to the lv.4 diet sheet, and somehow there are lots of vegetables at home lately. This is great. But I can't even pick up my pen to draw yet. 2017.10.06 And today is normalization. I'm back exercising, and I tried to push myself. At it became something like this But I guess I tried too hard, and for each circuit I had too long rest. Let's see if I can score same amount of reps for my next workout. But this means, I strike the 3rd Workout for "Workout at least 1x a week" challenge. (3/4) !! 029 - 2017.10.06 Now I'm back tracking my foods My boyfriend helped me on discussion about my drawing plans and we discussed quite a lot, I'm so happy about it. And this Sunday I will try to draw at least some sketches. I really need to respawn from these family stuffs, and I started to. At least I still keep being active. Need more power to make it more discipline. It was fun to walk around the forest~

Let's see if I can score same amount of reps for my next workout. 029 - 2017.10.06 Now I'm back tracking my foods Today was just having relaxed Saturday at an all you can eat restaurant with my boyfriend, while discussing a lot of stuffs regarding work stuffs. We both content creators, and having nice talk about what should we do next are really fun. Now that I gathered more spirit to respawn. Let's continue the nerdfitness journey, and hey, next will be the 30th day!

Got the first workout for the second week! I usually worked out on the evening after class, and I find myself too tired. Luckily I can still draw, but I can't draw properly. Sketches are okay. I'm too tired. So I'm thinking of moving my workout to morning before class.. I'll try for next Wednesday! Others doesn't get any updates yet, but for the easiest chicken ever quest..hopefully this wednesday. Won't fail again! I also start tracking how less I eat vegetables.. I might pass the level 3 of nerdfitness diet, I didn't drink anything sweet & sugary, but I still need to eat more vegetables. So looking at my whole week from the daily log; And today is.. No Vegetables If I just focus on the main topic.. The no-grains chain broke at Thursday, so I hope nothing will break the week#2 chain! There's also one more requirement for reaching level 4 of Nerd Fitness Diet Guide, which is choose high protein breakfast. This going to be the priority for week#3-4.

Mmm yeah, really makes sense. In this thread, our accountability is more visible too. I got slower and slower on updating daily though. Luckily we can follow others thread and get their updates by e-mail and read in my spare times. I still want to connect with more other people since this place is a community afterall hmm Thank you very much, Hazard! And next.. going to tracking the goals again. Few days back was just me settling some problems on my current college & jobs, I need to get back on these

017 - 2017.09.23 Hmm Saturday.. Let's have some rest day for today. Ahh righ,pempek is basically fishcake eaten by rich sweet-sour-spicy sauce. 018 - 2017.09.24 I make weekend as rest day but I think today's kinda too much haha. Still going out with family. Today is just designing for my campus poster. I won't do something like this again.. It's a mistake to reveal that I'm a comic artist.. I'm just being honest because I keep hiding it for years, but once I revealed it they treat me like a free designer.. I can't even design. Haha suddent rant.. 019 - 2017.09.25 Ouch my update gets slowerrr... I won't do rest day more than 2 days anymore... I worked out on the evening after class, and I find myself too tired. Luckily I can still draw, but I can't draw properly. Sketches are okay. I'm too tired. So I'm thinking of moving my workout to morning before class.. I'll try for next Wednesday. I also start tracking how less I eat vegetables.. I might pass the level 3 of nerdfitness diet, I didn't drink anything sweet & sugary, but I still need to eat more vegetables. My workout today.. Walking lunges has leveled up!

Okay.. I'm confused on how to update this thread haha For daily, I will still put it on my daily log thread. Updated every 2-3 days. There are more stuff happened there, feel free to check out. There are my detail workout plan, travel stuffs, and doggies. I will try updating challenge thread every 1 week, or when fun(?) stuff happened on my progress, like when I tried to cook few days ago. Let's see about this hmm

Yeahh, gotta just keep doing it! Hard hat concept is good in case of just keep going. And thank you!

015 - 2017.09.21 Can't believe it's 15th day on tracking my days already. I'm actually satisfied with today. I walk around 3 km (1.9 miles) today from the mall where I have family lunch, move to the nearest park. Ugh, I hate malls. Ads & commercials stuffs of some lifestyles that doesn't fit with me are everywhere. So I runaway, and it became a fun journey. I want to do more of this. Having an adventure is something I love to do. Inside the spoiler is not good for somebody with spider phobia because I met Tarantula owner community. I'm gonna put it here because I'm gonna remember today as a reminder that, I love to have adventures, I'm gonna do my workout etc for doing this a lot in the future But worry not I still have cute doggo pic to make the post balanced with cuteness My productivity is also great. I can do a slow sketch progress. This is a day I want to experience every day. 016 - 2017.09.22 Somehow I always leveled up in the day when my brother pissed me off. I just learned about sodium on my diet is high. It's also because of my culture. But also found out Indonesian curry foods and satay is paleo friendly. This is great because I love them. I'm dead tired at night, I think I was still exhausted from my Thursday walk. Or it's because I leveled up my workout? Or because I'm lacking of vegetables.. maybe yeah I'm just tired. So I don't have time to draw at night. But I did in the morning, so that's not bad! My workout evolved! Desk push up & Body weight squat rep increased! Fun stuff: I bought stuffs as my treasure chest of getting my 7th workout. That treasure chest concept I got from Steve's Level Up Your Life I read on the afternoon. Here's what I add to my inventory: I got bored state with my workout actually.. but this treasure chest concept makes me wanna jump and just do it. I will going for a camp next week, I need to be cool and strong while wearing this cool 55L bag. I love my new gear, I really wanted it since a long time!! Now I can say bye to the annoying suitcases.. it's just not my thing. Mmmm what treasure chest will I get next.. excited to find out!

You're not alone! Good luck I start from 10 rep wall push up for each circuit until my 5th workout, then I move to using desk. Slow but steady, hope can reach the floor someday.

Thanks to @PaulG I found a cool way to practice pull up from the easiest level. Thank you again! I'm on level 2, the one with a towel. It's a fun exercise to do. Until my mom freaked out that I might broke the house. I'm using the stairs, but it looks fragile. Yeah I know, and I start to get worried because it makes some "scary" little noises when I do the pull. Will this be okay in long term.. the link also uses stairs, but I already scare my mom so I guess I need to work on my own room now haha. My room doors is also scare me. Concept of building a batcave in our room really sounds nice too. I'm thinking of installing a bathroom towel holder but in vertical in my room so I can continue the exercise. It may be odd, but I need something for the replacement. Is this too odd, or somebody has other suggestions?

Hi Archer Black! Finally somebody with timezone that doesn't really different with me haha, I live in a country right at the north of yours. I'm cheering you for your battle, especially the diet battles. Diet is a hard challenge for me, so I hope we all can walk together in changing the bad habits. And yeah, vapers sucks and smoking a lot of them doesn't mean you will be healthy, it's still smoking. Really sorry for your problems. But you did great jobs on your goals! Keep doing great things.

Thank you Hazard!! #Day02-03 Review Cooking progress On day 02 I start learning some recipes and got surprised by the fact English for Recipes are hard, and I don't even understand the meaning in my own language too. :') But I'm learning! Day 03, I start...groceries shopping! I found out my free time is Tuesday and Wednesday (today).. so let's buy some chicken! Thighs is on sale, so let's go. And use the sauces that available first. There are lots in the kitchen already, I will try them 1 by 1. My favorite is oyster sauce, and I don't really understand about the rest. Boy I'm overwhelmed a lot... but once I want to start, I forgot that I don't have aluminum foil (or I just don't know where my mom put it) Okay, at least I've made progress...... But I guess my overwhelmed source is because I think about I should make vegetables soon.. but I'm not ready yet. Should just focus on once thing first. Yeah, should make it step by step. This is already a good progress! Design goal progress I have my hard hat and start working on commissioned stuffs by day 03. I warmed up. Should finish the work soon so I can prioritize on creating new designs to sell.

013 - 2017.09.19 In the no-workout day, I kinda regret having a 4 pm nap because I can just use it for maybe have a walk outside. I'm having preparation to cook, learning to read recipes.. Maybe tomorrow I can start experimenting! I discussed some of my "changing lifestyle" meal plan (I hate to use the word diet) with mom and she's totally supportive. She just warned me that my dad and bro will always become my "devil" since they really love sweets, fast food and sodas. I need to buy vegetables pack for tomorrow. By productivity, I can start drawing again but still not focused on the important things. But that is okay because I need my drawing alter ego to warm up first. Need the hard hat tomorrow! 014 - 2017.09.20 I had some good progress on my cooking challenge that I will update it on my challenge log. Workout is okay. It's (just) my 7th workout and I start to feel bored. I underestimated habit change before, and so I have to deal with it. At very least I only need 1 workout for each week in my 4 week challenge. But thanks to knowing nerdfitness, I can just google some like [bored]+nerdfitness and came up with so many things. Like, now I consider doing urban hiking when I got bored. Walking from my college to my house? Seems a cool idea. I also haven't tried rock climbing for years, so I should. If I got bored next time I work-out, I still have list of things to do. I have to keep active! I guess I need to learn how to cook my favorite vegetable (broccoli with oyster sauce) Productivity note I love my productivity now. I put my hard hat and working on my commissions. I have to deal with them before I made some design to sell in this 4 weeks.

I posted day1 update on my daily log, but this thread need to be alive hmm Still finding the best way on how to updating this thread. But let's see... #Day01 Review Workout I got the first week covered. But I still want to do it 2 or 3 more time this week. Level 4 Diet The requirement is 2 week. So this is 1/14 of my breakfast has swapped. I eat omelette (2 eggs) today. Studying more recipes so I will not just eating eggs hahaha Cook The Easiest Chicken Ever No progress yet. If I can cook more, that's already a good progress. 1 Design I found out drawing after workout feels great. It's been awhile since I picked up my tablet pen, and I think it's the day to respawn to my art stuffs. 1 got my 1up! 1 hour sketch of Hakurei Reimu, and her music theme (Maiden's Capriccio ~ Dream Battle) also become my art-respawn theme this night. Ah yeah btw, I'm a big Touhou Project geek. Hope you don't mind if I post art and it'll be 95% of Touhou Project girls. I'm back, art-productivity!! Need to tackle comic commissions after this..

011 - 2017.09.17 I start the day with yoga session to cure my stomach pain. Felt better to start the day after repeated the circuit 3 times. It's the day where I receive a new PC to work with.. a secondhand from my bf actually haha. Better than nothing. Today isn't a really good day, but at least I'm ready to respawning 012 - 2017.09.18 Respawning. First day of the 4 week challenge. Planning a lot on how to surviving college that also starting today, and can manage to work out on the evening. And finally I can took my pen and draw again too. My productivity is back. I found out drawing after workout feels really great. Food log Still finding out how to update my challenge log. >> Challenge Season 1 Starts Now

Hi zeroh13, thank you for the welcome Exactly the problem. Most of the time we hyped with everything on the event maybe that made us not noticing that actually our body is already dead tired. Need to build the habit of packing more healthy food and drinks and maybe set reminder to actually eat and drink them. Yes, finally I found a new goal for the diet! I add this one to the list Also what do you think about the new goal, replacing the snacking goal. @Hazard This means I will having 2 diet challenge. Which I think, yeah I really need to fix my lifestyle slowly.

010 - 2017.09.16 Last EO job for this month I hope.. I almost not having my workout again, but suddenly I went berserk at 7 pm. I'm back, workout! Today was like when the protagonist remember that their enemy is getting stronger and they think they need to keep working out to be even stronger. I remember my own enemy is my brother. Went mad for some stuffs, then I just go for a workout. I guess I just found my new moodswing cure. And my workout leveled up today. I feel great. And I just found out my transformation theme song. I liked it as my driving song before, and when I feel want to make something great, and now I also realize this can be my theme song too. Today's food Productivity My pc broke (again for the 6th time in these 4 months).. so that made me worked out. Not bad actually. And I've think of more stuff to draw next. Rather than pissed off from my broken pc, I choose to just work on what I can do. Well I hope I will keep improving in my stress management, thx to workout I feel much better

008 - 2017.09.14 The grand event.. not cons, just EO volunteer stuffs which I kinda regret joining, this was the day. I'm glad I read Steve's book the night before, so I tweak my motivation to make myself keep going for that volunteer job; I make the work as Exploring Game. The event took a place on somewhere I didn't know a lot before. I don't workout today but I had a lot of walking today, exploring everywhere when I have my free time (surprisingly I have a lot of it). Felt good. 009 - 2017.09.15 The after event day. I just rest. I tried warming up and get tired already, so I should just rest again.. and find out that evening I got the monthly period, which that usually made me a little weaker--but it's also because day 008 was really busy. So I decide to just doing dynamic warm up then rest. Spend the day reading and discussing a lot of things with my boyfriend, which also just starting to get fit and eat better. So yeah.. 2 day of resting. Today is day 010 and I still have EO job this afternoon. Will try to do something once I'm home.

You're the best!! Thank you very much again Hazard

Hi, SunSeeker! Btw I like your username. Also welcome back to NF. I'm excited with your goals. Especially Quest#2.. I guess I'm geeking every hiking goals on this guild haha. But seriously mountains are great. I see you got injured but I like how you will still keep going. The adventure is still calling, and start slow is much better than nothing. Quest #3 remind me of some "30-day challenge" posts on pinterest. I forgot which one, but there are some challenges that want us to be more active by doing a lot of different things each day, the list can inspire you if you losing inspiration on what should I do today. Wish you luck!

007 - 2010.09.13 Wohooo a week on tracking my under construction adventure! Here is today's setlist Lunges!! I still can't do it properly too, and still no skill measurement like how we hack push up to become smaller chunks. But it still better than my push up. Also wondering what's better rest time for each circuit? I did like 5 minutes before I starting another circuit, or maybe less, because I'm waiting for my breath to be more stable(?) before I continue. I wonder if it's okay. Diet Warming up before 4 week challenge starts: starts tracking! Productivity Log Wait wait I ranted bad stuffs haha, while actually some good progress also happened. I start planning what stuffs to sell for next con and draw some drafts. I need to be grateful on this progress too.

Hi, thank you for the welcome. Will try my best to accomplish these goals Mmmm I wonder.. I'm not really an introvert but it still very tiring? Especially if I look after a booth means I have to be inside the event for full 2 days. Sometimes I take a rest and get my friend to look after the booth, like having work shift, but yeah it is still dead tiring.. Trying to getting out in nature sounds great! I love spending time in parks (at least that's the closets "nature" thing I can reach), now I'm thinking of going there after another convention rather than just curl up and sleep. Yay this sounds great!! And thank you for the wishes, I will do my best! Thank you! Long commute is tiring, but can choose to upgrade our self to become more stronger. Ah yeahh inside the convention is harder to eat and drink properly. Sometimes I pack up my lunch from home and bring some drinks, but it's more convenient only when I'm not coming as a guest, because if I had a booth I can put my drinks under the table. And buying foods inside convention is so expensive.. But stocking enough drinks & food still not enough, because even though I bring water doesn't mean I will remember drinking it lol...... inside convention we can be too hyped with surroundings and forgot the necessary things. Yeah need to be more careful now! Might setting up reminders to eat/drink more often for next event. Thank you whereisdaniru! Yess, hello again! Great to meet you again now as a guild leader, thank you for the welcome! I think I'm gonna do both of it.. I'm still having doubt especially #3. I don't snack a lot already. But I still am, maybe once I have tendency to snack then I'll try to do the challenge. Still have few days to rethink about this. And thank you, I actually plan to draw some stuffs to put here too once I finished with my current priority

006 - 2017.09.12 Another normal day, but with doing some work stuff I don't really enjoy. I don't like the people environment of my current project. Now I think this as a level that I'm not enjoying, but I should keep going if I want to proceed to the next quest. Last day of this project would be this Saturday. Gotta develop stronger patience! 4 Week Challenge & Diet My challenge thread is up! At first I put yoga on the goal list, but after getting more knowledge about food diet, I think I should focus more on that first. After all, all the hopes will not happen if I fail the diet. Putting this to my priority list! Today's Diet This is why I want to prioritize my current journey on diet.. I did not so well for today, so now I will start tracking it daily. I start following 10-Level Nerd Fitness Diet Strategy sheet. Will start on lv.3 because I already reduce liquid calories for years.. So next step, will try to swap out grains to high protein, and keep tracking my food daily. Today's Productivity Putting this on daily battle log because I slack a lot on this little side hustle commission.. I still have a work to do but I procrastinate a lot..since the money for the project isn't really worth when I compare it to other project I also doing now. It's just not fun.. It's hard to put on work if I can't enjoy it. But I already said yes on this. So yeah, at least I start sketching today. Hopefully tomorrow I got more progress.

"You can be anything you want. You just need patience and foresight." --Derek Sivers. I have so many things I wanted to do, mostly around Travel & Draw. I draw like I breath. But, I'm surrounded by comic artists who has health problems (physical and mental), obese, lacking productivity, etc.. not everyone, but most of them. I don't want to be like that. The environment is fragile, but I still love drawing. Also, I attend a lot of comic convention, and Conventions (both as a guest or selling stuff in a booth) is sucking a LOT of energy. I want to recovered faster on the day after event. For the last 3 years, the day after event (or the whole week after event) is just me being a turtle, sleep all day inside the blanket, and catch a cold if I'm not lucky. I fall in love with travelling, especially adventure kind of travel. Hiking, trekking, diving, rock climbing, it made me feel alive. Not that I'm doing it a lot (yet!), the adrenaline pump felt great. That's the main premise of Sgeek70 Welcome! This is SGEEK70 UNDER CONSTRUCTION Season 1 of Arc 1. Goal of Arc 1 --> Build The Antifragile Habit Build strength. Manage time. Manage stamina. Find out how to keep being efficient with productivity, time, money. Season 1 goals: - Workout at least 1x a week I'm on beginner body weight workout. - Make it to Level 4 of Nerd Fitness Diet Guide I change the yoga because I think it's not something I need to fix right away. I will still doing yoga since it helped me a lot already. Diet is important. I might not tracking my foods, but I already not drinking soda nor any liquid calories. so I can just focus on leveling up to level 4. Which the requirements are: Trying to swap out grains completely at breakfast and choose high protein breakfast. - Cook The Easiest chicken ever 1x in this 4 weeks I can cook but I never use the oven lol but I just learned it because I want to learn to cook. This become a challenge because I also have to make the time to cook. But challenge accepted! - Create 1 new design to sell this month. I've procrastinate a lot on my stuffs so I need to make at least 1 on this 4 week! Scrapped goals (maybe can be used for later): And that is all. I'm aware that my biggest weakness is lacking discipline. In my old battles, I was always alone and not accountable. But not anymore. Thank you, and lets we enjoy the tale. Sgeek70

Hi, RagingBiscuits! Hope you can hit the goal and maintain your perseverance. Also a first timer here, let's do our best. Nice goals you have here! Aaah I really want to hike too, I love doing it but I live far from the mountain. Do you live around mountain that you can do it each week? Hope I didn't sound creepy but if you hike somewhere, would love to see the scenery photos from there. Hiking is fun!
