Goal Reflection Day: January 13th, 2019

By -
Hey, I bet you may or may not know what time it is! It's Goal Reflection Time!
Fitness Based Goals
Attach Loot to My Goals |
I have attached loot to my goals, but I still need to attach time frames to the goals themselves, so this I am counting as half done for right now.
Reach Weight Goal (160 lbs) |
I have not weighed below 200 in the last two weeks but I also haven't weighed in above 203 so there is something. My diet has been sloppy and included to much candy from Christmas and monsters to stay awake, but I am hoping meal prep will help us eat healthier foods. This morning, I weighed 201.4 lbs.
Lift Three Times per week |
Even though we didn't want to, we made it to the gym for lifting all of the assigned days the last two weeks. We are seeing improvement in our ability to lift and that is exciting to me. We have been stuck at bench-pressing only 30 pounds, but I am hoping we can move on to 35 or 40 next gym session. We will see!
Do Cardio Four Times per Week |
Every cardio day except last Saturday we have achieved cardio. We eat out on Saturday's just to make going to the gym a little easier, so last Saturday we thought about going to IHOP. Then on the way we decided we could do Wii Fit at home after we eat. Then we didn't do Wii Fit at home because we are not yet trustable human beings.
Do Morning Yoga |
If I remember correctly, I have achieved goal completion for the last two weeks at least, with morning meaning after we lift at the gym for Mondays and Wednesdays.
Lifestyle Based Goals

Meal Prep Every Week |
We actually prepped meals last Monday and this week was great, just throwing some premade food in the microwave and relaxing. I hope we achieve meal prep tomorrow, I think we can do it!
Stream Every Monday/Friday |
We aren't very good at streaming but we did these last two weeks. With minor difficulties and failure on our part. This most recent stream we were silent for the first 30 minutes because for some reason our mic wasn't working :T. But we are trying to get better by streaming every Monday at 10AM and Friday at 10PM Mountain Time at twitch.tv/datenightgames
Drink Enough Water Daily |
I haven't achieved 100% this week but I think I got at least 80%, so that is better than last goal reflection day! I am still shooting for 100% but it is hard when I get distracted with things I like to do, like draw dogs.
Log Food Daily |
Like with water I don't think I got 100%, but I think I did hit probably at least in the 90's. I think I dropped a couple things here and there but for the most part I logged all of my meals, so that is something!


This week has been something, I haven't felt the best mentally but I am trying to work on that. But enough about that:


Stay cool.

Cooking shows

By -
I really like watching cooking shows. I'm not sure why, I don't plan on ever making the food they do, but there is something about watching skilled chefs make beautifully delicious looking food. Rok also enjoys these show so that works out really well for us. More recently we have started to watch more cooking channels on YouTube. We now watch Binging with Babish and Bon Appetit. I used to watch Hellthy JunkFood, but recently their content hasn't appealed to me as much as it used to. We also watch the Great British Bake Off on Netflix, but unfortunately Netflix doesn't offer many other cooking show options that I can find. I have been curious to look into Chef's table but we haven't gotten there yet. Today I weighed: 213 lbs Yesterday I ate: > A 22 oz Aloha Pineapple smoothie from Jamba Juice > ~1 1/2 cup of buttery noodles > A yogurt cup > Two peanut butter and honey sandwiches > A slice of white bread Yesterday I drank: 84 oz of water...

Tiny Cat Kidneys

By -
Our cat Monty has been getting over a kidney infection. As such, I had the privilege to learn how difficult it can be to make a cat swallow medication. We also had to learn to administer a subcutaneous fluid drip every few days to make sure he stays properly hydrated. Fortunately, he's been recovering well, drinking his water and eating his expensive, new medicated food. We took him into the vet today to make sure he's totally back to normal, but now we have to wait for a urine test to come back. At least we got his vaccinations and stuff renewed, so that's good. This morning, I weighed 195.8 Today I ate ~Three small chocolate covered muffin tops ~A pull apart twizzler ~Half a bowl of cheesy pasta from Noodles ~A cat mug of ice cream ~An Amy's pesto tortellini bowl ~Two slices of cheese pizza On an unrelated note, I've been cleaning up our kitchen and I'm hoping to keep it that way this time. I suspect a tidy kitchen will make cooking less of a cho...

We moved!

By -
We're still pushing boxes around, but the worst is over, so we can get back to blogging irregularly and streaming sometimes! Although we are also planning on changing jobs soon, so maybe it's not over after all! We've officially submitted our final assignments for our machining course, so once they get graded, we should have our certifications and our instructor was helping us look for jobs to apply for and put in a good word for us with a place where he's sent students in the past with good results. So come July, we might be making parts for spinal implants, which sounds pretty rad. Much better than listening to people's phone calls all day. And we'd get a swing shift with four 10 hour days, which I think sounds ideal, so we get to sleep until we wake up and then get a weekend and then some! I'm trying not to get my hopes up too high, since we don't actually have the job yet. Especially because we won't actually get to start until July after a pla...
