Murphy's Roommate Posted January 6, 2020 Report Share Posted January 6, 2020 Title pretty well says it all. This 5 week challenge is devoted simply to eating right. The goal is to intermittent fast 6 days a week, eating only between 8 a.m. and 4 p.m. I figured I should take my lack of food around the house and turn it to my advantage. Instead of grubbing for food on the way home, I can get a decent meal at work for breakfast and lunch, and keep it at that. Simple, measurable, and achievable. Game on! - Murphy's Roommate 2 Quote Link to comment
Bob the Bardbarian Posted January 6, 2020 Report Share Posted January 6, 2020 One thing that I find that helps is finding good substitutions for the things you enjoy. Seltzer water for soda, nuts for chips, nothing for donuts. Do you cook at all?

Murphy's Roommate Posted January 15, 2020 Author Report Share Posted January 15, 2020 Wow, last week was a doozy. About nothing went right, and it was gloriously high stress. The refrigerator and washer that were supposed to be delivered on Saturday, got shifted to 1 Feb. I'll be cancelling that order and find a company that can fulfill an order when they agree to. And of course, international events did not help. That was last week. This week is going much better. Monday went fairly well, and hopefully today finishes out reasonably well. Bardbarian - I enjoy cooking. I just lack a refrigerator right now to store raw materials and then leftovers. And outside is not consistently cold enough to be used as an icebox, nevermind the animals. Oddly enough, excluding comfort eating, I don't really get hungry when I fast. I've been watching this for inspiration when I do start cooking again. Apparently I do not know how to properly insert video... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=knNkD1afpik Darkfoxx - beyond the litany of fail with the appliances, pretty amazing! The wood stove and chimney effectively failed inspection today, which I am very thankful for! I'd rather know about a problem than accidentally burn down my house. Turns out the previous tenant ran the stove too hot and actually warped some of the internals. And the pipe coming off the stove is on its last legs. Yes, it will cost money to replace, but I'd rather have known good equipment than gamble some worn out stuff won't reduce my house, my stuff, my dog, and I to ashes. The driveway is slowly getting plowed down to dirt again, I have a delivery truck coming soon and we'll see if they get stuck! - Murphy's Roommate 1 Quote Link to comment
Murphy's Roommate Posted January 20, 2020 Author Report Share Posted January 20, 2020 Time to keep swinging at this. Going onto overnight shifts, so that will be a challenge. But I got enough caffeine to kill a small elephant for the team, so we should be rocking hard. The local gaming group is running a few single shots. First character was thrown into the void when presented with a Deck of Many Things. Next character is a homage to Bardbarian. Deciding on gnome vs dwarf. We're running the rules mostly in theatrical mode, so over the top, impractical characters are preferred. - Murphy's Roommate 2 Quote Link to comment
Murphy's Roommate Posted January 27, 2020 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2020 Well... Overnight 12 hr shifts are not good for me. Knew this going in, but they needed a warm body, and I've been able to do some good. I'll take it. It is thinking about snowing in Colorado Springs today, nothing where I'm at but I know Pike's Peak will look amazing in the morning! - Murphy's Roommate 1 Quote Link to comment
