dhert Posted November 10, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 10, 2014 I did, but not until after the last challenge. Funny part is that I sat down with my wife and we mapped out our Finances.... That changed the entire perspective. 1 Quote Level 9 Aasimar RangerSTR: 15 | DEX: 12.25 | STA: 10.5 | CON: 13.25 | WIS: 22 | CHA: 14.25Challenges: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, CurrentAccountibilibuddies: Rogue SquadronCurrent Body Fat %: 22.13Goal 13% from 27.01% 34.8%34.8% Link to comment
JessOfAllTrades Posted November 11, 2014 Report Share Posted November 11, 2014 Amazing how budgeting can put the Starbucks habit into perspective! Goals look good, and huzzah for another clean house goal! My life goal is somewhat similar.

Xena Posted November 11, 2014 Report Share Posted November 11, 2014 Looks good! Basic and streamlined. I don't know if you usually do the minichallenges, but they are pretty fun. This one asks people to pair up in teams of two...if you are interested in trying it, swing by the thread. Lots of people are still looking for partners.

dhert Posted November 11, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 11, 2014 Day 1: Main Quest Did not do any workouts.Did not walk/run.Tracked all food intake; was under the calorie goal by 220, unfortunately I was way over on my carb intake (I'm shooting for less than 20%, yesterday was 56%). I was also over the sugar goal. Life Quest Picked up kids toys and got them put away, this is pretty much a daily struggle. Day 2: Folding Laundry or Sweeping before working out.

Xena Posted November 13, 2014 Report Share Posted November 13, 2014 Someone pointed out to me last challenge that cottage cheese is kind of magic for adding protein (if you eat dairy).

RogueWelkin Posted November 14, 2014 Report Share Posted November 14, 2014 I know how much gaming can kill... well everything, especially if you don't plan around it. Master Chief Collection + brand new Surface Pro 3 have kind of killed my stuff randomly. Just try to make a game plan, maybe set that you can only play if you achieve certain things, etc. Quote Race:Gamorrean | Class: Adventurer10 {STR:27.5||DEX:3||STA:27||CON:52.50||WIS:35.5||CHA:16.5} Inventory: Belt of Dietary Willpower Accountibilibuddies:Rogue Squadron Challenges --> 1-->2-->3-->4-->5-->6-->7--> 8-->9-->Challenge 10(Current) Logs: | Fitocracy | Measurements | My Fitness Pal Reach 180 lbs from 225 lbs (currently 225 lbs) 4.44% 4.44% Link to comment
