Headed to airport, will review and offer any insight I can a bit later :thumbsup: before I get to that point, what would you say your goal with the weight lifting is, as that will impact what direction I would lean towards with it. I guess just to tone up and look swole. I worry about my joints get...

Had one fill up after driving home with the car, and then just that second one where I tracked the 25.9 mpg.

Curious to see if you or I will do less miles. I'm at 7K after 15 months of ownershit in the 86.

will keep you all updated.

I think for gen pop, you’re right about counting calories. Have a protein target that you hit every day, and other than that, just try not to go full :fatty: with your food. Leave the full blown calorie and macro counting to those in the competitive bodybuilding world who need that extra 1% each da...

So far so good. Haven’t had much time to do anything besides drive her around a bit, but luckily I don’t really need to either. There are a few things to do over time, but nothing pressing. I’ll probably finally buy a jack and some stands in the coming weeks and then I’ll change the oil, throw thos...

I personally thinking counting calories is for chicks. No offense. I focus on if I’m getting my brotein and fats. Being a home cook also conflicts with my weight loss. Life’s too short to eat the same ground beef every night with the hopes of being 180 lbs instead of 185… just my two cents. I’ve be...

Enjoy. https://datforumdoe.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=633&hilit=crangshaft+crangshaft+thread+crangshaft+thread+crangshaft+thread+crangshaft+thread Man, even in the first page... dude outright refuses/ignores the most basic advice to see if there's oil in the car. Looking back this much later, I’...

Oh yeah. Zero complaints.

USS Arizona memorial and USS Missouri to mark the start and end of WWII

Man my job is cool.

Just finished touring the Pacific Tsunami Warning Center in Honolulu. Very cool seeing the impact of the work we do and how it actually fulfills our mission of protecting life and property.

Doesn’t hurt that I get sent to Hawaii for four days.

I've been in your shoes, it's not fun. Just spend as much time with her as you can. I :member: that you went through this some years ago. Saw her this morning along with the hospice nurse for her evaluation. She actually was more alert and responsive than yesterday. She opened her eyes when asked, ...

My neighbors have a small pond thing in their backyard. It attracts frogs. I’ll be jumping the fence when they go out of town to spray antifreeze since it sounds like I live in a swamp….. https://share.icloud.com/photos/0b5lRghlSzccGApmBcF7CXJtA There’s a frog in the storm drain right in front of o...

In related news, my dad's ordeal with prostate cancer appears to not be over. He had his prostate removed about 3 years ago, but I found out yesterday that after about 2.5 years of his PSA being zero, it's started to tick up again. It's still incredibly low, but that means the cancer managed to get...

Thanks guys. Unfortunately, I don't think she's going to recover much. She's 93 and pretty frail, and I think dementia was starting to set in. She's been ready to go for a while now. We're scheduled to have her evaluated Monday to see what the next step should be. It may be time to move her into ho...

Ah shit man. Hope she pulls through alright.

Grabbed a buddy and cruised an hour east to hit this bbq spot I found in the instagrams. Little food truck set up that’s only open Saturdays from 11:30 until they sell out. We showed up at 11, there were a few people already in line, but we popped into the brewery next door so buddy could grab a bee...

On it. Will report back after each one. I’ll see if I can stream any of them on my flight to DC tomorrow. :well: Zero progress has been made. WiFi on that flight was not working. Long flight to Hawaii tomorrow.. bringing a book to read on the plane, but will see if any of these are available to str...

Yeah I’m trying to keep that in mind. Be rad if I can pull it off. Be fine if I can’t.

Will keep you guys updated.

I mean yea … but I just don’t see the point. The point is to get huge bro. :dat: The gym is a non-negotiable for me. I’ll suffer through the inconvenience of hauling the baby to/from/around the gym if it means I get to spend time in there. I’d rather get a substandard workout because I’m keeping an...

Quoting is broken right now.. Well yeah, I’m not planning on just dumping her on the floor lol. Exercises where it’s safe to do so she’ll be strapped to my chest/back, exercises where that’d be unsafe she’d be in her stroller for the 45-60 seconds it takes for me to do a set. Seems to work for every...

I hope you’re wrong, but time will tell. One chick just gave birth two months ago and is already brining the baby in with her while she lifts :iono: Some people save the placenta and eat it for health benefits. People are weird af True.. but what’s weird about me bringing a 6-month old baby to a gy...

Oh for sure! The bodybuilding regimen will have to take a back seat for a while, but that will also force me to streamline things like meal prepping and be even more efficient with my time. Rough timeline that I’m expecting/hoping for: Months 0-3: no gym trips.. all training done downstairs on the ...
