Tearose Posted February 1, 2016 Report Share Posted February 1, 2016 A Ranger Respawns I was chasing down dinner when I got sidetracked, fell into a ravine, and was eaten by beasts. Thankfully I have respawned and I am ready to fight once again. Main Quest: Fat Loss, My jerkins are too tight!! Fit into my cargo pants How? 1. Weight training at least 4x a week- Make this into a habit again. I have been going well, this is my second week. 2. Follow my macros. I am currently tracking macros and it is working very well. Macros are subject to change based on results. 3. Cardio 2x HIIT a week, walking the rest of the days of the week. I started with 5 min and am slowly adding a little more time each week. I recently hurt both of my feet, ( I don't really know how) and don't want to get injured again 4 Quote Level 6 Ranger/Warrior Str:26 Dex:13 Stam:17 Con:12 Wis:12 Cha:3 Current Challenge: A Ranger Respawns Link to comment

Tearose Posted February 1, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 1, 2016 Hmm I cannot multi quote for some reason. Thanks GonnaBeAJedi! Yay!! Hi Ash!! :triumphant: Hi Quiet! how do you get those progress bars in your signature? I think I asked someone ages ago ... I can't remember. Erick Hi! Yay welcome back to you too! :triumphant: Hi Terra! Thanks, I had the worst one x rayed thinking it was fractured but then it got better so I think its just some sort of soft tissue damage? Ooh I wish you luck on the next surgery. :cheerful: I had an excellent week last week. getting my daily habits down with the help of a site called Habitica. I am obsessed with getting my dailies done and being consistent, leveling up my little character. Yay! I started watching a new series last night called The Shannara Chronicles, has anyone read the books? So far I love the series, I can overlook a little bit of cheese because elves and druids and its really pretty. This past year both my mom and grandma were diagnosed with cancer. My grandma passed away on Dec 23 and my mom is stage 4 and going through aggressive chemo.I feel like I am finally in a place to deal with myself, and focus on talking to my mom as much as possible. So glad I called my grandma as much as I did. So thats where I have been this year, and I Ate ALL the feelings. Despite all of that I am feeling positive and hopeful. 3 Quote Level 6 Ranger/Warrior Str:26 Dex:13 Stam:17 Con:12 Wis:12 Cha:3 Current Challenge: A Ranger Respawns Link to comment

QuietRiotGrrrl Posted February 2, 2016 Report Share Posted February 2, 2016 I'm glad you found the progress bar info! Those are fun. Really sorry to hear about your family and the cancer attacks. That stuff is a beast. But its good you're in a place to take care of yourself. That is important. 1 Quote QuietRiotGrrrl AKA Mary Gnome Ranger Battle Log ~ The Adventure Begins ~ QRG vs the Army of Darkness ~ Apocalypse Preparation ~ Stuff.

Tearose Posted February 4, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 4, 2016 Things are going well. I did legs last night. I hate lunges. I am using Habitica.com to help me with my daily habits. It goes perfect with nerd-fitness. You have a little character that gets levels when you complete your daily ahbits and if you miss you get dealt damage. If you party up with someone all your daily habits damage the boss and if anyone misses it damages the whole party. Pretty fun. I have not missed any of my dailies, which means I have been ultra productive! Nutrition is on point and I signed up for a year long course for evidence based coaching for physique and power lifting athletes with Eric Helms and Dr. Mike Zourdos. 5 Quote Level 6 Ranger/Warrior Str:26 Dex:13 Stam:17 Con:12 Wis:12 Cha:3 Current Challenge: A Ranger Respawns Link to comment

Erick the Red Posted February 4, 2016 Report Share Posted February 4, 2016 I have used Habitica (I think it used to be HabitRPG) and I liked it too. I agree that it can go well with the nerdfitness goals. I need to go back and check on my little guy to see if he is dead. 1 Quote Current Challenge: (Feb-Mar 21) Step by Step My Epic Quest Character Sheet *** Old Challenges and Links hidden below Spoiler My Old Battle Log (2012) 1st (Scout) 2nd (Scout) *** (2013) 3rd (Warrior) 4th (Warrior) 5th (Warrior) 6th (Assassin) *** (2014) 7th (Ranger) 8th (Scout) 9th (Monk) 10th (Scout) *** (2015) 11th (Ranger) 12th (Ranger) 13th (Ranger) 14th (Ranger) 15th (Scout) 16th (Scout) *** (2016) 17th (Ranger) 18th (Scout) 19th (Scout) 20th (Rebel) (2021) 21st (Adventurer) Past groups: The Wild Hunt 6 *** The Serenity Crew *** The Wild Hunt 5 *** The Wild Hunt 4 *** The Wild Hunt 3 *** The Wild Hunt 2 *** The Wild Hunt 1 *** Browncoats Achievements: (20 Sep 2014) Completed first half marathon *** (17 Feb 2014) Finished mission to bring body fat from over 25% to under 12% over six months (trying to repeat that now) Link to comment
Jormungand Posted February 4, 2016 Report Share Posted February 4, 2016 I think you're doing well with straightforward goals. Fitness doesn't have to be quantum physics. Habitica sounds interesting. I've dabbled with Fitocracy in the past. Anything you could say to someone on the fence regarding getting it or not? 1 Quote Level 13 Human Assassin Introduction Battle Log Current Challenge Previous Challenges: I, II, III, IV, V, VI, VII, VIII, IX, X, XI "Scars are not injuries...A scar is a healing.

Tearose Posted February 4, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 4, 2016 For some reason my multiquote isn't working. Hi Tank! Its super interesting! Unfortunately lunges happen to me :/ Hi Erick! Aww poor guy, do you have a lot of dailies to wipe him out? Hi Jomungand! Thanks! Habitica is free! You set up your own daily habits. I think its really motivating, I have done so many thing in the last week, because I had to check it off my list or I would lose health, and I have been excited to level up! You get eggs and hatching potions which make all kinds of different pets, armor too, and mounts! Dragon Mounts! So it just seems like a game rather then some crap I HAVE to do. DO IT!! There is an app, but is mainly to check off your dailies when you are away from the computer, there a lot of things you can't see on the app. There. Does that help? 3 Quote Level 6 Ranger/Warrior Str:26 Dex:13 Stam:17 Con:12 Wis:12 Cha:3 Current Challenge: A Ranger Respawns Link to comment

Tearose Posted February 6, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 6, 2016 So check in today I am down a lb on the scale, but have lost 2 inches off my waist, a half inch off my hips and .25 inch off my calves.
