Woo!

Today I got through the first 200 jumps without miss! I did stop for about 15sec after the first hundred, more so I didn't lose count than because I was winded. The last 2 sets of 200 were a lot harder though and took a bit more willpower to get through.

Last night I went to a BBQ/birthday party with some friends of mine. It was the first time I'd been to a social event like that since being on the actual diet. Turns out, the average potluck bbq has a lot of stuff we can eat. I was able to have a sizable grilled chicken breast, and plenty of veggies in various salads. There was also plenty of bread products to choose from for my carbs.

I got some strange looks when I was offered a beer and declined. I'm known to be quite the social drinker and it was something new for my friends to see me turning down beer after beer. Still, I've been in that situation before, and it's interesting to notice how much less people tend to drink with just a single person of influence like that.

  1. Yeah and amazing how much more people will drink when someone's like "c'mon, who wants another beer! It's a party!"

    Way to be your own man, Bassinator.

  2. Yeah, you did good. Keep it up. And, in regards to your Voltron comment. You know, I barely saw the show except the first few episodes put together as a movie. It just wasn't on where I lived in Canada. That said, I used to own the entire lion set. Stupid Yellow lion head was always limp though. Great toy--one of the coolest I ever owned, especially that black lion.

  3. Voltron! Nice. I had a full set when I was kid. Sadly I dropped it down the stairs and it broke.

    Way to rock that BBQ bro!
