Severynn Posted February 1, 2016 Report Share Posted February 1, 2016 Ressurection Sickness ;“Decreases all attributes and all damage dealt by 75%.Wears off after 10 minutes…†I may have fallen but I’m going to pick myself up and become better and stronger. A little about myself… About 16 months ago I did my first ever NF challenge. After the first, I chose not to create a second thread but I still continued my progress by following roughly the same quests. It worked wonders! I lost 30 lbs in only 3 short months! That’s when I met my ex-boyfriend. The first few months I was still being careful in what I ate and continued hitting up the gym, but definitely not as regularly. As time went on, my progress completely derailed. I don’t blame him in the least; I have to keep myself accountable. I was so consumed with the new relationship and wanted to give all of myself to it but by doing so I completely put my own needs on the back burner. We both LOVED to eat and fed off of each other’s bad habits. Sadly a little over 4 months ago, we broke up. That put me in an even bigger funk. I’ve spent the last 3 months eating absolutely terribly and not really giving a second thought to my well-being. I’m incredibly lucky to have only regained 10 lbs since I stopped working out and eating properly thanks to my non-sedentary job (I’m on my feet walking 40 hrs/week.) Fast forward to this new year 2016 – over the last month I’ve been having a really hard time digesting anything remotely fatty and only a few short weeks ago I got incredibly sick with gastroenteritis. That was my lowest point ever. I’m tired of food making me feel physically sick – the instant (albeit very short lived) emotional gratification of food isn’t even worth it anymore because I just ended up feeling even worse after binging! It’s time to make a change again. Okay, ENOUGH BABBLING. Let’s get to how I’m going to conquer my inner demons…Since my first ever NF challenge quests seemed to have worked so well, I’m going to try sticking to those same guidelines as I jump back into this wonderful community Conjure RefreshmentsConjures food providing the Mage and her/his allies with something to eat.· Log all food intake using MyFitnessPal and stay at or under 1600 calories per day. I absolutely have to log everything I eat or else I lose track. Luckily for me my house is always stocked with whole wheat and low calorie options. The real issue for me is portion size. Bring on the measuring cups and weight scales! PolymorphTransforms the targeted enemy into a sheep.· Workout at least 3 times per week for a minimum of 1 hour per session. A bad-ass sheep, that is – and the enemy being my former unhealthy self! The one thing I found hardest about working out in the past is routine… I get so bored by doing the same thing over and over. That completely destroys my motivation. That’s why I need to try out a multitude of activities (Zumba, yoga, swimming, cardio, weight lifting, hiking/geocaching, skating, biking, etc.)Am I a rebel or am I a rebel, am I right? Maybe one day I’ll find my niche… maybe not! Time WarpWarp the flow of time, increasing haste by 30% · Allow myself one cheat meal per week. Everything in moderation. I feel it’s necessary to keep a healthy lifestyle 80% of the time and allow myself to cheat a bit 20% of the time. If I stay 100% strict I just know that one day it’s going to all come crumbling down and I’ll binge every day for a week straight. This way I can calm the cravings but still stay mindful. BlinkTeleports the caster 20 yards forward, unless something is in the way.I’m hoping that by pushing through these life goals, it’ll lead me to a better and more productive life. · Study a minimum of 15 hours per week.Aside from trying to better my body, I’m also trying to better my mind by going back to school this new year. I haven’t been in school for over 2 years and my program is 100% online so it’ll require lots of motivation to complete but I believe it’ll be crucial for me moving forward in my career.· Organize / Clean RoomI haven’t done this in many many months. It’s beyond overdue. I hope that by doing so I’ll be able to help the less fortunate by donating a lot of my old clothes and other items that I no longer use. With any luck, by the end of it all, my newly refreshed room will become a safe haven for me to zen out and further improve my mind. Good luck to me and all of you!Can’t wait to meet new people! 1 Quote Severynn - Lvl 1 Vrykul RebelCurrent Challenge | Instagram | MyFitnessPal | Pinterest"What is the point of being alive if you don't at leasttry to do something remarkable?" -John Green Link to comment
