Made the decision to get my shit together and stop putting weight back on. I lost 100 pounds and kept it off for a couple of years, then starting last Halloween the wheels came off and I started eating like a madman. I’ve put back on about 30 pounds and feel like shit about it. I was so pleased with myself to lose it. So, now I’m holding myself accountable again. Counting calories, tracking food, avoiding carbs, keeping my diabetes well under control, which is why I lost the weight in the first place. I’m not going as hard as I did before, I lost the 100 pounds in about 5 months. I only need to lose 30 so no need to be that crazy.

You lost 40 Kg in 5 months? How is that possible!

But great job

Pysched for you !! That’s amazing

Crossed a before I'm 40 item off my list.
Went to a TV show being filmed, the caveat being that it had to be a show I enjoy not just any old Jeremy Kyle garbage.
So was at the filming of Celebrity Juice. Took about 3 1/2 hours.
I expected this.
What I didn't expect, so much of it is just off the cuff, unscripted. The panelists for the most have no fucking idea what's in store for them, but kudos to them for laughing and getting on with it.
Only one second take on anything, and that was a muddled up lead in to a game by Lemon.
All in all, an entertaining evening, they were very good at keep the craic going between set ups etc

Big kappa

Never heard of Celebrity Juice but I looked it up and they recently destroyed an old Pierce Morgan set for kicks and made him turn purple, so the show is good for something.

Had a downed bumblebee in the flat when I got home. Had a quick look online (I remembered you were supposed to give them something with sugar), made him a sugar water solution in a dish and stuck him on my windowsill under the open window.

Few minutes later he picked himself up and off he went. Little things!

Severe caloric restriction and moderate exercise. I was doing between 1000 and 1200 calories a day. I can’t seem to find the willpower to go that hard again.

That's hardcore indeed. No wonder you can't muster the willpower for something like that after being on it for months. When was this by the way?

[Slow Ben]

It’s opening day baby!!!

Know what’s making me happy about spending $3K on a brand new inside AC unit? Simply for the fact it’s having to be installed now rather then in a month from now or heaven forbid in August and thankfully not in January either.

It is just right now but for 4 days now it’s all been out as we waited for a new unit after trying to fix the old one. Will have another night without but hopefully tomorrow will all be done.

Temps ranging from 68-78 inside.

I totally get this.!


--> Going to a game convention today so trying some different DnD groups, cosmic encounter, Twillight Imperium 4, and an Alpha version of a unreleased game by a major designer too!

My copy of black rose wars lands today so hopefully going to squeeze this in as a learn and play.

Saw Ara Malikian live. It was amazepants. The whole crew rocks

[Slow Ben]

Me and a couple friends had our first ever DnD session the other night. Had no idea what we were doing, only used premade characters and premade stories. But it was a hell of a good time.

Solid! Check out some of local cons now too... the best people. I will admit a good RPG group is quite fun ... though I lean toward cyberpunk.

I played Dnd for

10hrs Friday ( 2 groups)

11 hour twilight imperium 4 game ... bloody lost by 3 VP and it was quite neck and neck. Even though that sounds long (3 breaks) due to food, game trading time ( someone made a mass trading algorithm so this giant swap and it worked..had to watch !) etc.

I got in two beta games , viticulture , and a few short games.

Also got to game with Phil Eklund ( creator of high frontier)

didn't you feel light headed or anything!

But great job. I started excercising and have never been fitter but I'm struggling to shed the pounds because I don't pay enough attention to the calories!

[Maark Abbott]

So let there be light!
Let there be moon!
Let there be stars and let there be you!
Let there be monsters, let there be pain!
Let us begin to feel again!
