Shello Posted September 19, 2016 Report Share Posted September 19, 2016 Deja Vu warning... This is going to look really familiar... My Boring Backstory Reveal hidden contents For those of you catching up, last challenge was a coop challenge where if either I or my cohort, Deftona, failed to meet our goals we would both incur some punishment. This format worked wonders for me to get my shit together and get back on track with following goals and making them a priority. But I am not out of the woods yet. I just about lost my shit over weekend 0 (this is why a whole week 0 is not a good idea for me) so it's painfully clear that these habits need more work in order to make them stick. My overall goal is the same and last challenge worked, so I'm keeping the same goals this time around. This is just back to being an individual challenge. If I miss a workout, I alone incur the punishment. If I go over my calorie goal, I alone incur the punishment. Last challenge was like learning to ride a bike (again) with training wheels and someone holding onto the bike. This challenge no one else is hanging on but I've still got the training wheels on. Food goal will follow the varied calorie goal schedule. I’m allowing for a bit higher calories on weekends and then a few lower calorie days during the week. All the while not restricting myself, particularly on recovery days when I am the hungriest. Since my calorie goal is varied, I have set up tiers for the purposes of determining punishment. For a 1450 calorie day I have a 100 calorie leeway. Anything over 1550 calories is a minor infraction, over 1650 a major infraction. For a 1600 calorie day it’s a 90 calorie leeway. Anything over 1690 calories is a minor infraction, over 1780 a major infraction. For a 1900 calorie day it’s 80. Anything over 1980 calories is a minor infraction, over 2060 a major infraction. Training goal is to work out 5 times a week, preferable 3 runs and 2 lifting sessions but I’m allowing for some substitutions. I’m likely to be joining a weight loss challenge at my gym. In addition to the required 5 workout days, I’d like 1 active rest day. That can be just about anything, going for a walk, catching Pokémon, splashing about at the pool with the kids, swinging a sledgehammer, or even shopping might count if it's active enough. PUNISHMENTS: 1st Dietary Minor Infraction: Add extra sets or miles on top of whatever we had planned for our next workouts 2nd Dietary Minor Infraction: Do the Darebee daily workout (in addition to our normal workouts) 3rd Dietary Minor Infraction: The same as a major infraction Major Dietary Infraction: 1 dairy-free meal and only cold showers the following day 1st missed workout: Darebee Daily Dare, with extra credit if possible, or do it twice Any subsequent missed workout: 50 burpees per missed workout punishments Exceptions: NONE! I won't be making it to the HammerRace so without that trip I have no trips planned for this entire challenge! I am excited for a challenge that I can completely focus on my goals. 8 Quote Race: Amazonian Ogre Princess | Class: Ranger | Profession: SuperHero | Affiliation: Doodlie and Pancake for Life Respawn Challenge Arcs: 2021 | 2022 I am not saying I am Wonder Woman.

IMHO it's becoming the most important piece of hardware in a computer. Ofcourse i can't see your budget... but seriously, get a SSD, any SSD is better than a HDD. If you can afford it, buy an extra ssd and use the 1TB harddrive as an external HDD. 1 Quote ... a little odd in the head ... Link to comment
