    Did you injure it in the past or is it just weirdo pains?

    (Also thank you, if I could afford a plane ticket I would do that.)

    I thought I pulled it back then, so I took a few weeks off of running and then I got sick so I've only started running again these past couple of months, and it's been hurting for a couple of weeks. Now it hurts even when I'm not running, so I dunno if I re-injured it or what.

    (Anytime.)

    I've gone from 315 to 253 since mid-November just by trying to eat less and spending about 45 minutes on my stationary bike most days. I started a while before I actually weighed myself so I wouldn't be surprised if total loss is over 80.

    Also been doing some pushups/situps/light weight training(I only have 2 3kg weights haha) and have arm, shoulder and slight pec muscles for the first time.

    Feels good man.

    drunk me usually just wants more beer, which is also a bad idea. also weighing yourself after a night of drinking is fun, you're so dehydrated you get to see a nice low number

    I will never weigh myself after drinking

    Actually I would just prefer to never weigh myself at all because I am always always depressed by it, all the time, forever

    Good news is I got the wrapper open and ate the shit out of that granola bar! Yeah. Fuck you granola bar.

    Why not indeed. Eat that cottage cheese.

    Ours went bad but I ate it a little anyway before throwing it out.

    I feel like when they do personality tests this should be its own type.

    The "Eats expired food anyway cause why not" type.

    i'd love a home pull up bar, my chin up #s have been going up but if i could just pop out a few every day it'd go up a lot more i think

    Rounding out week 3 of Insanity with 6 pounds lost. Feels good!

    Just finished week 6, body weight the same as when I started just a lot less fat and noticeably more muscle (I think I've added 1/2" to my calf size and I can actually feel abs now)

    How is it then that I still feel gross and fat! Harrible.

    If it's any consolation, you haven't looked anything but skinny when I've seen you in TC.

    Been pretty lazy re:working out lately. Getting up at 545 am to commute is sapping my will to do anything when I get home but sleep.

    Nothing. Matters.

    Thinking about picking up tai chi or MMA. My buddy is a member of the "local" (Local being a 30 min drive away) MMA group, but he's gonna go away to study so I wouldn't know anyone except his brother there.
    Wish I had more friends that exercised.

    Went riding around the neighborhood this morning to help get a feel for the new bike. Not used to only having brake triggers in the drop grips.

    Got the gears tuned, new tires and rims set. The original seat is kinda growing on me. I just need new pedals, and the biggest thing is those brakes. I can barely reach them with two fingers on each hand. Can't pump any more money into it this month, but next month, new pedals and a full replacement of the braking system with both drop and center bar triggers. In the mean time, I can toss a few bucks at a wire brush and some rustoleum or whatever, to treat the rust.

    went on kayaking class

    was good

    pretty long, spent a good time on land just drilling stuff with paddles / talking about technique, which was actually very good
    talked about the kayaks and whatnot
    then went out on the water and did stuff for a bit

    i had a chance to practice a wet exit, but 1) i had forgotten a towel, 2) it was the hudson river next to 23rd st in manhattan
    so i declined.. but seems straightfoward enough.. i'll practice another time

    anyway, i think i did well overall, and i will go on a few more trips before my big trip

    my technique is pretty decent except i am bad at not keeping tension in my shoulders, which isnt surprising, i carry a lot of tension there anyway... gotta work on relaxing that shit so i dont tire myself out from that
