On that note, every year at this time I really look forward to the end of February when all the New Years Resolution people go back to their couches and the gym becomes somewhat usable again.

>Do you find it hard to eat low carb in VN?  I mean, both rice and noodles are a staple there.

Not really, don't eat a lot of either, don't really eat much of anything but like my protein drinks.

I'm pretty low carb generally but more preference than anything, activity level is very high could likely do with a few more to be honest. Gym 5 days, basketball, tennis, football a good 4-5 times a week between them too.

Thanks, th3core's threads have been a big help keeping focus.

Now comes the hard part.

OK, I'm back in guys. Been slacking in the worst possible way. Got back in the gym last night and hope to keep the inspiration high this spring. Setting a 6 month goal to shred 11 lbs before July 1st. Doable if I just get off my ass and shut my mouth.

Walking 8-10km a day playing.. pokemon go with a buddy of mine.. there I said it.

2/3 last week, just played ball. Hope to hit 3 this week, 2 matches plus gym. I'm not interested in weighing at this point, it's going to be ugly.

What ever gets you moving.


>shred 11 lbs before July 1st.

Try this trick, just cut out all liquid calories for a while.  No juice, beer or milk, no sugar added beverages.

>170. Goal.

Nice RC! 

>Now comes the hard part.

Transitioning from weight loss to maintenance is no small task and psychologically difficult.  In VN you did mention wanting to get into weight training.  Now would be a great time to start.

Ditto. Good to have you back Raz.

Could be worse. You could be doing this exercise video:

4/4 this week.

Managed a run yesterday in what I thought would be a torrential downpour, but got motivated 'cause I wanted my four. And then, bonus, it was a lull in the storm and I hardly got wet and it was a gorgeous day (I mean, cloudy, foggy, a bit of rain, 46 degrees, but gorgeous compared to the foot or so of rain we've gotten over the last few days). Thank you Core Commit :-)

I need some eye bleach now. 

Watching it was a rainy day activity at Hans Florine's house back when it was still a climber gathering point.
