ixaera Posted April 17, 2017 Report Share Posted April 17, 2017 WELCOME TO IX'S BATTLE LOG Wherein I hack down goals with my big warrior axe and then do something with logs. Am I a lumberjack? HMM. Format: Starting with monthly goals and small challenges, perhaps some mini-participation to fill my challenge void, we shall see, but mainly this here is where I keep getting better doing the stuff I want to do and stay accountable, and occasionally see what new things I can squeeze in (or not, as the case sometimes is) Let's jump right in! It's the last half of April, so here's what I want to get done: Fitness Whole Pizza In My Mouf Pick up heavy things and then put them back down again: 6x Be vaguely active: 12x Don't pig out: Avg goal of 1550 cals Back rehab: 28x Feed The Brainz Write errday: 10x Read writing advice: 2x Read own writing: 2x Read print books: 4x Study things/code academy stuff: 6x (Yes, I realize there are more than 10 days for that write everyday goal BUT last challenge I never managed to write every day of any week, so for now I'm just trying to improve that habit. +1 til I get to everyday.) That's it to start, since not much left of the month anyway. 4 Quote Link to comment

I always did think that looked fun~ Plus I have Scottish ancestors, they'd be proud. 29 minutes ago, shaar said: Is this a real goal? I think it should be a real goal. I mean why not?? BY GOD LOOK AT IT ALL THE GLORY you know, I still love pizza, I do. But man before I lost weight, pizza was my go to "bad" meal of choice, all the time, but now it's just not? I find I'm far more partial to nachos and cheese fries, but there's less challenge fitting a nacho or french fry in a mouth. The whole plate, maybe >.> Anyway, my bizarre guilty pleasure obsession with Vampire Diaries may baffle me, but at least I end up with new songs I like. The soundtrack is pretty good. 2 Quote Link to comment

I didn't bring a change of clothes to stop by the gym on the way home, and I was too lazy to get on my stepper thing at home. Minor fail.

Barely had to read anything to breeze through that. On the hunt for a new practice project. Work was insane yesterday. Went home all braindead, could barely decide what game to play to unwind, then didn't wanna deal with MMO peeps (the stranger ones, the guild ones are great), then didn't know what game to play after that so I just turned my brain off for more VD. 1 Quote Link to comment

Meh. I'll keep to what I am doing for a while yet. A girl has a clicking plan~ Yeah, not only have I gotten to a point where I have a good idea of what I want my base challenges to always be, I just was starting to feel confined by the 4-5 week schedule and sometimes a girl just wants to start a 30 day burpee challenge tomorrow, but the next challenge isn't for 3 weeks and well here we are (no, no burpees yet, my back is still sometimes a bit angry??? stupid thing) 4 Quote Link to comment
