Twilight Posted March 22, 2014 Report Share Posted March 22, 2014 Agreed! Changing a lifestyle feels a lot like trying to turn a huge ship. It only shifts direction little by little, but keep holding the turn long enough and I'll settle onto a new - and hopefully better - course. And like any gradual change, you don't notice it while it's happening. It's only obvious in retrospect. Another good reason to keep records. 1 Link to comment
Hazard Posted March 23, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 23, 2014 Speaking of keeping records, I mistakenly listed the weight and waist measurements taken this morning (22nd) on the report for yesterday (21st). It's fixed now. Report for: Mar 22, 2014 Mission Objective #1: Track the movements of three High Priority targets for six weeks: Weight, Calories, Protein. Weight: 177.0 lbs (80.3 kg)Calories: 2915Protein: 88 g The calories and protein all come from a single restaurant meal at lunchtime. I realized later that if I had chosen a zero calorie alternative to the soda I drank, I would have come in around a much more reasonable 2200 calories for the day. Soda's a nice treat - basically liquid candy - but the meal was wonderful and I definitely would have enjoyed it without soda. I'll keep that in mind the next time I go out. Mission Objective #2: Cut until March 10th, then reassess (complete) extended: Cut until March 31st, then reassess Starting Weight: 181.2 lbs (82.2 kg)Current Weight: 177.0 lbs (80.3 kg)26 Day Change: -4.2 lbs (-1.9 kg) Starting Waist: 35.40 in (89.9 cm)Current Waist: 33.27 in (84.5 cm)26 Day Change: -2.13 in (-5.4 cm) Mission Objective #3: Recon the 7 Nerd Fitness Guilds (complete) Bonus Objective: Investigate & develop a reference list of foundational 'Assassin' training. (complete) Bonus Objective: Attempt various Assassin skills to determine my current abilities. I took a look at the equipment at two parks today, and gave back levers and german hangs a try at the pullup bars. I was able to hang inverted and straighten my legs out, and even start to creep toward lever position. But I couldn't hold it. I could go further tucked, but not much further. And trying to lengthen into a german hang just wasn't happening. I always reached a point in rotation where I had to drop gracefully to keep from falling on my face. I had fun trying though. I think hanging around and flipping upside down on things must stroke the ancestral tree-dwelling genetic memories in me. 4 You haven't seen my Final Form I Stand With Gina Carano Link to comment
pattycake118 Posted March 23, 2014 Report Share Posted March 23, 2014 I'm impressed you braved the chilly weather to test out the park equipment! I was so unimpressed that it was -20C this morning, and still chilly as the day warmed up. I miss the warmth of above-zero weather from last week. || pattycake118 establishes routine || fitbit || MFP |||| Level 3|| STR 3 || DEX 1 || STA 2 || CON 6 || WIS 3 || CHA 2 || Link to comment
