  • I'm still working on Pride and Prejudice and Zombies. I've been in sort of a reading rut, but I'm close to finishing, so I'm going to just power through and then switch to something else (either another pleasure book, or I may read source books for games I play).
  • Lunch hasn't occurred for me yet, but I've planned to have a hand pie. :)
  • Today I'm a nerd because my fiance and I did an official test run of our Legend of Zelda save the dates and they are amazing!!!
  • I used to be very in shape when I was younger (pre-college and early college). I walked everywhere, ran and danced (country swing) regularly, and was just happier overall. With my wedding coming up in a year and the future of starting a family with my love, I want to be in the best health I can be for them. And as vain as…
  • Skinnytaste is one of my favorite places to look for recipes. And general Pinterest searches and using the recipe calculator. I've got a weekly Hello Fresh subscription for 3 meals a week which takes a bit of a load off, but the meals vary from being very calorie deficit friendly to extremely high (I usually split these…
  • I usually eat breakfast before I go out on my runs. But I'm also usually up and moving for an hour and a half before I head out to workout. If I were to immediately go out after getting out of bed, I don't eat until I get back (I used to do this prior to some major life changes that noe allow me to workout later in the…
  • I get this fairly frequently on my andriod phone, which is why I've quit viewing the forums from the app. Kind of a pain though since I like to read through them when I'm waiting.
  • I'm curious about these new flavors. :3 Since 3 of the flavors out now are no go (I'm not big on chocolate, and chocolate-mint is not a flavor I even like thinking about. xD).
  • I tried the Lemon Cake one, and I wish it was more lemon tasting (I'm a huge fan of citrus flavors). But for what it was, I was happy. I ate it faster than I usually eat ice cream (I'm just not a big ice cream person in general). When I get the urge to get some ice cream again, birthday cake is on my list.
  • I got the regular one, though from comments, it sounds like it was recently redesigned. I'm already in love with it, since it obviously fits everything that was in my old purse, but I can also fit the things I used to have to swap out or carry by hand. It's honestly perfect for my next year especially with wedding planning…
  • Today I'm a nerd because my handbag of holding came in and I've now packed it with my usual stuff and am excited to find out that I can fit pretty much all my nerd stuff into it. :D
  • This previous week was pretty good for me. This upcoming weekend is going to be the first trial since we're going to a German festival in Louisiana with some friends (they're part of a dance group). Part of this trip is eating a lot of German food and going out to get some seriously heavy, but delicious Cajun food. I've…
  • I could see this, as no matter what time I go out, I'm still dealing with the Texas heat. And the yawning definitely reduces when I get insidr in the A/C.
  • I usually take a bathroom run between 2-4 AM most nights, which is because of the amount of water I'm drinking during the day (especially in the evening). I'm so groggy when I wake up and stumble through the house hoping that no cats are deciding to play toll booth operator with the halls. And then when I get back to bed,…
  • I'm trying to pull away from everyday. So it's around every other day, with me trying to push it out longer. Right now, it works since I'm not going out, so it's a good time to re-train my hair.
  • We generally do Domino's for convenience (there's a shop right outside our neighborhood, so it's quick to get to or get to us), though we tried a nearby Papa Murphy's and were supper pleased with them. We may be making that our usual pizza place. When we do frozen, it's Screamin' Sicilian all the way. They've got some…
  • I definitely want to look into barre classes once I'm working again and bringing in funds. The difficult thing is finding a studio that is either 1) on my way to/from work and/or 2) open at hours that work with my schedule. When I was working in the past, it seemed like neither of these lined up. But that's true for most…
  • Start to this week was good. I joined a Star Wars challenge, so I'm added a bit of yoga into my dailies, which today's routine pointed out that I really needed to do some deep stretching. I had early losses of almost 2 pounds, which was great considering that I ate a pretty heavy meal Saturday (split over lunch and dinner,…
  • Today is the end of the week for me. So updated the spreadsheet. Eating cleaned up much more after the first stumble. We ate out yesterday for lunch after booking our wedding venue, so it wasn't the healthiest option, but I split in in half and spread it over two meals and picked some healthier sides. It was super…
  • Congrats on the new job. :) When I was at my previous job, I would always pack everything I was planning to eat from the time I left the house to when I got home (breakfast, morning tea, snacks, lunch, more snacks) so I could keep track of what I was eating and moderate myself. I also had a job desk job, but I would get up…
  • I use Runkeeper since it syncs up with Zombies, Run. I have limited storage on my phone, otherwise I would actually also have Endomondo for my non-ZR outings. I haven't used the Spotify Running in a while (not since they added the ability to pick up bpm for android), but I haven't had issues using regular Spotify playlists…
  • Thanks both. :) I'm definitely intending to increase the weight as it gets easier (I'm starting very light since I haven't done weighted lifting in a very, very long time). At the moment, I'm pretty limited on weights I can increase to (I do plan on buying some adjustable dumbbells, since they give me more weights to…
  • Hi hi there, K2Sakura. :)
  • When I was really big into running, I liked using the main app and just breaking down sections, especially since there's a lot of ways to customize the runs. And some audio portions are longer than others (especially in radio mode). I find it easier to work through the story in the main apps, especially since weather and…
  • A third of the HelloFresh mole-spiced steak tacos with a chili corn side since they were pretty high calorie. So now I have the other two thirds for lunch and dinner today. :)
  • I would say I'm not super accurate when measuring fruits and veggies (I'm working on it), but I do need to long them since I can literally eat enough to cause an impact. This is especially true with carrots and tomatoes (I've been known to eat too many tomatoes, to the point where the acid makes the inside of my mouth…
  • I fumbled a bit on the first day with eating, but since then I've rebounded and back on track. Weight loss this week might be questionable (cycle started today), but I'm not craving too badly so far, have been going out for 20 minutes in the morning (and getting some jog sessions in), lifting, and doing well with water. So…
  • Tell us how it goes. I'm hoping to be in shape to do a virtual race next spring (which should be halfway-ish to wedding date, so a mid-planning stress killer). I've been doing super short routines as warm-ups for strength training, but even with 20 minute mission runs, I get music plays. Just haven't done a lot of Radio…
  • I love ZR. I really get into my workouts with it. I'm a subscriber, so I can really customize my workouts. They also have an old 5k training app which I believe falls between seasons 1 & 2.
  • Fiance and I had talked about getting one early on (aka pre-release of the app itself), but with a lot of the changes, we've been pretty 'meh' and cooled our hooves. Especially since we're buying SuMo this year (He's getting me Sun for my birthday, I'm getting him a 3ds and Moon for his birthday/Christmas). And the more I…
