Last two years, just while getting really into the thick of things seeing progress, old man shit has popped up. Last year it was a pulled chest muscle that felt like a heart condition that required EMT's run tests in my living room.
This year I'm pretty certain its a stress fracture in the foot.
I need @PurpleBaze to fat shame me and promise 'log' pics if I eat healthy. Yes the incentives are bipolar, but its all I got.
I had a goal of 175 a few years ago, but now I'm shooting for 165 so I have some wiggle room and I can take a couple weeks off from this crap.
I think I was about 185 in early February, I don't really remember, but it was mid 180s.
I walked 11 miles or so Sunday.
After skimming some of these threads, I don't feel like such an alcoholic. I really don't drink alln that much, though I have my binge moments and yes, I use it as a crutch during difficult times (who doesn't?).
An ex (actually a couple of them) would nag me about drinking and being at bars, but especially the last one. I don't miss that. I haven't been to a bar for probably close to a year though.
Alcohol to me feels like a complex subject that requires nuance.
I'll be the first to admit I have a strong beer/whiskey craving which would be it hard to be a tee totaler. Is that an "addiction" ? I don't know.
I also think the guidelines shouldn't necessarily be a one size fits all. For example, if I'm an extremely active 200 lb male does my body process 2 or 3 beers differently than a sedentary 160 lb guy.
I'm with you on this one. Nuance is pretty important in everything. I love beer, but I'm have a sedentary and am trying to lose fat right now, so beer is a no-go for me at this time. However, when I get closer to maintenance mode I look forward to being able to consume a modest amount of tasty carbo loaded goodness. Moderation for me looks like 4-7 beers a week. I haven't had a beer in 3 weeks however and I miss it.
