Was able to get some time against this again this last weekend. Picked up my conjurer again where I left off around level 20. Moved a bunch of my +pet gear from my former mains over to this guy as I leveled up to 48. Hellhound / Briarthorn, Stormhound at 35, Revenant at 40 and I am basically...

Long new year update. With the start of the year I am ending my first bulk. The goal was to handle holiday food intake better than last year by priming my body to build muscle and utilize all of those delicious calories . It was somewhat successful. I ended the cutting portion of my diet...

I love pet builds. Once I had a 'base' Occultist I liked I could never go back to a normal class. Before the summoner was released I had a level 50 Occultist, Occultist / Aracanist, and Occultist / Warrior. They were a blast, ended up just straight Occultist for most of my farming at the...

I would also recommend getting a set of rings to hang from said pull up bar as well. I have this set up at home and the addition of rings brought a whole new level of fun to my body weight routine. Doing Ring support holds and Ring dips are some of the only times my top four abs make a solid...

You can always make pushups harder. Not enough to fully replace weights I imagine, but you can definitely keep progressing Check out some of the bodyweight routines if you are in a pinch. Startbodyweight.com has some good progressions that I look to in general. Startbodyweight.com Progressions

Don't be so sure. I said the same things 2 years ago. I just wanted to drop some pounds, get skinnier and healthier, etc. I started small, enough to lose weight and then things just started escalating. If you find something you truly enjoy doing, you will make time for it and want to...

The bandage contact was removed today. Still going strong on the no issues bandwagon. The worst shape my eye has been is still at the level of 'mild discomfort' and that is remedied by more lubricating drops. The antibiotic drop stings a little more going directly on the eye. Vision started...

Got my procedure done yesterday afternoon. It was just my left eye to start. My rides fell through so I ended up just Ubering to the clinic and home. Overall, I feel like the appointment took 30 minutes in and out. The actual procedure probably took 5 minutes tops. I am not sure what the...

Great work, man. Getting an active hobby going is pretty clutch. Made a world of difference for me as you can just do a hobby, not 'work out'.

Just got a call from the LASIK place I am getting my procedure done at. They had an opening this week that I can take. Going to go through with it as they had projected an actual scheduled time of February 2016. Going to get my dominant eye done to start and then follow up with the second...

I am coming in on a check in point this week for measurements. I will put some info in Fitmatic as I don't have anything except my initial random measurements since my calipers busted. I actually completely failed to input my starting measurements before this 'bulk'. So far, it isn't a...

While I have not had it done yet, I will be doing this early next year. I am getting an enhancement done on my left eye as it has faded more strongly than my right. Since it is my dominant eye they mentioned I may not have to even do a procedure on the right or could wait.

Not sure when this went on sale exactly, but I think it is still part of the Black Friday / Cyber Monday timeline. Withings WS-50 scale for $50 off. Best Buy Withings WS-50

DDP Yoga is great. I haven't done any of the extreme discs, just the normal workouts. It is great for rest days on my schedule. Gets the blood flowing and keeps me flexible. It is the one constant through my weight loss journey. I started with DDP and will most likely always be doing it...

Firas Zahabi is a MMA Coach and overall introspective guy. I enjoyed this video on building habit, etc. for fitness. How to Program your Mind for Fitness - The Power of Creating Momentum - Firas Zahabi - YouTube Simple concepts, but could be helpful for getting things started.

I think this is just because most people take it off the deep end. When I was younger I did low carb and did the no fruit / veggies thing because they were 'bad'. However, now that I am older and wiser, when I did Keto vegetables weren't bad necessarily or taught to be bad from my internet...

Indeed. It isn't so much being surprised that more calories = more energy. It is being surprised the amount of additional energy from a seemingly small increase. That is why I try things out randomly. I can read on how stuff should work and get an understanding of it, but actually...

Well that was fast. 24 hours and $275 richer (minus shipping / transaction fees) I have sold my previous phone. May have been able to get $20 - $30 more for it but getting it done and over with feels good. Definitely blunts the edge of the new case / cord / charger accessory purchasing.

This is funny to me because going from a Ketogenic / Cutting diet to a Carb / Bulking diet has made me feel like superman. I seem to have way more energy when rolling / lifting, it is absurd. Who needs steroids, just give me some sugar.

Anyone have a preferred device selling site? I was looking at putting up my Nexus 6 on Swappa potentially to try and recoup some of the new device. I have not used any of those sites in general though. Needing a new SIM pretty much sealed the deal on dumping the 6 as a spare. Might be able...

Can confirm, 5X is a great phone. The wife is enjoying her so far. I was going to get the 5X for myself as well but got the 6P. It was slightly slimmer than my 6 and should have less thumb stretching problems which was my only real gripe with that large of a phone.

Also, didn't like half of the town just get murdered? Shouldn't they be well stocked for the time being?

When you say opposite, do you mean the diet or the volume workout or both?

Yep, I just had to do this last night. Phone arrived, popped my Nexus 6 SIM in, buzzkill. Then I remembered an email Google sent me a few weeks back about a SIM. Guess I should have paid more attention to that one. First impressions of the phone with just WiFi for connectivity have been...

I am part of the 'loves to eat' bandwagon. I enjoy food and eating, clearly a part of why I was so overweight. I had been able to eat until I wasn't hungry when doing keto type diets very well. Recently, moving to a more traditional diet (carbs), I have been having cravings and 'episodes'...

I have been doing the BodyWeight routine (/r/bodyweightfitness) mostly successfully for around the past 30 days now. I am officially starting my first bulking phase to try it out. I am hoping to be able to stay sane long enough for this to go until approximately mid / end January 2016. The...

One of the tracker apps I have been following finally got their 1.0 release. I am not sure I am going to move over to it as I am so heavily invested in MyFitnessPal currently and Joy will go subscription ($2/mo) after the trial which is still more than the $0 for MFP. If only they would have...

All the pictures I see online of thigh shots are just guys in boxer briefs pulling up one side of the boxer near their hip. The 'half speedo' as it were. I am glad you are taking weekly pictures this early in the process. That is something I wish I had done and regret not doing it.

In other news, my 6P order with an ETA of 11/22 just shipped with an ETA of this Wednesday. Google must have got their act together for taking peoples money effectively. Exciting.

Well this is interesting. I just randomly went and checked on Nexus 6P status again. It let me order one, delivery mid November is estimated. I did not get an alert or off the wait list or anything, just random. No hesitation this time. This was for Aluminum 64GB.

Yeah, dude became extremely introspective during his little vision quest in the river.

Got caught up on the latest episodes yesterday. The only thing I was going to complain about was Michonne humoring the whiny dreadlock guy. "Whaaaa, we are so hard, we know to to survive, stop hurting our feelings!". Then she shut him down and that made me happy.

My wife's 5X arrived last night. How someone can see a shiny new phone box and not tear into it immediately is beyond me. She just kept facebooking and instagraming on her old phone while making dinner. Hopefully will get some hands on with it soon. I nearly broke down and ordered a 6P for...

Just found this site today. Seems like a pretty good tracker. Leverages lots of standard measurements via tape / skin fold and inputs them into a variety of formulas all at once. Gives a nice snapshot and report base. Not sure if it will make it into regular use for me, but I like to try...

Good to hear on the 5X. I ordered one for my wife. Should have some hands on with it whenever they decide to ship it.

I am not sure there is a 'soft' throttle on data, more just a max cap. Turn off data automatically when you hit a limit - Project Fi Help For me, I just make sure I am connected to WiFi whenever possible and don't do updates / streaming over cellular generally unless I am traveling. A...

I have been on Project Fi for a little over three months now. I transferred from T-Mobile. Service / quality has been no issue. My situation has only improved as I have access to the Sprint network as well. I have seen no issues with WiFi calling or transitioning between services. The...

For those that love the world. Save 23% on The Park on Steam They are releasing a single player game based in The Secret World...world. On sale now. Comes out in a couple of weeks.

One thing that helped me with this was only waking up 15 minutes earlier every week or so. I used to wake up around 6-630a. Over about a month I set my alarm forward and eventually reached 5a. I have been successfully waking up at 5a for the past 30 days or so without much incident...

WatchedInfinilast night randomly. Kind of an odd psychological space horror film. Very Event Horizon vibe from it. It wasn't amazing but it did keep me entertained the whole way through.
