EmbracingChaos Posted November 3, 2015 Author Report Share Posted November 3, 2015 I haven't had much to write about for a while now, but thought I'd do a quick snippet of what I've been up to. I finished up my course of steroids and I've been eating in a little surplus (probably) for the past week and a half. I've been doing my regular one fast-day per week but I haven't been tracking any calories other than that. When I have done estimates I tend to be around a 150-200 calorie daily surplus, so I'm probably somewhere in that range. I'm still lifting on a 3 x week schedule and increasing in strength on occasion (I'm sure the food's been helping). My leg is still screwed up, so physical therapy is still in the mix. Just going to keep doing this until my leg is all healed up or I have a reason to do something different.

Disil Posted November 4, 2015 Report Share Posted November 4, 2015 Crazy that your leg's still screwed up. What a lesson for just one dumb run. I really hope you recover soon. At least you're able to train consistently and have kept doing so. 1 Quote How about a glass of purgatory with a splash of heaven? Link to comment
EmbracingChaos Posted January 18, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 18, 2016 Just another quick update post. I've been lifting 3 times a week still, basically staying the same on my lifts, and experimenting with a ketogenic diet. Today is my 42nd day doing keto and so far it's been pretty nice. The food is cheaper, I have all kinds of energy, and I feel like I'm mentally "clearer". I'm not sure how long I'll keep it up, but for now, I'm pretty content with it. I spent quite a bit of time cleaning up my first novel (supernatural, horror, suspense), Portals, and digitally self-published it on Amazon. It is completely free for the next day or two, so if anybody is into those types of stories, feel free to pick it up before the promotion ends. This is the link: Portals Anyway, my intention is to keep lifting, eating, and writing for the time being. I hope everyone's holidays went well!

There: http://www.amazon.com/Portals-Dustin-Johnson-ebook/dp/B01AR1SMF6/ref=asap_bc?ie=UTF8 Bah, updated the link, thanks for letting me know. I doubled up on the http:// since it had already added it. I haven't been posting in your journal (or my own for that matter) but I have been reading your journal every few days (after your updates). Keep on with the lifting, you're getting there workout by workout!

Disil Posted January 19, 2016 Report Share Posted January 19, 2016 All good EC, thanks man. How is your ITB doing? I hope it's better/recovered by now? Quote How about a glass of purgatory with a splash of heaven? Link to comment
EmbracingChaos Posted January 20, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 20, 2016 Yea it's been pretty good. I used an ACE bandage wrap for a week or so and it seems to get the swelling down enough to heal. Thanks for asking! 1 Quote "Take arrows in your forehead, but never in your back" - Samurai Maxim Challenges: 1, 2, 3, 4 Battle Log Hinge Habits, Be Like Water, Failure Should Be Welcomed, Architect Your Environment, Set Goals For Processes Not Desires, Minimum Effective Dose 101 Link to comment
