Fivesolas Daily Check-in

Hey, I'm new to this, but I think this public check-in is a great way to foster accountability.

I bought my sledgehammer today (10#) and started my first routine tonight. I had to keep consulting the youtube videos to get the movements right, but I made it through.

I also started the nosdiet today. I made it through the day without any snacks. I am keenly aware that one day is not an amazing feat, but it's a start. :D

fivesolas,

it sure is a start and a good one at that!

Welcome,

Blueskighs

Shugging on zero sleep can be hazardous to your health...

Thanks, blueskighs!

Today was good; I didn't snack all day.

I also did my shovelglove routine this morning. I found out quickly that you should definitely get some rest before doing any physical exercise, much less shovelglove.

I had a big deadline today, so I was up all night working. Let's just say that no sleep doesn't go well with shovelglove. I got pretty nauseous afterwards, although it couldn't have been helped by the eggs and yogurt I had eaten about 20 minutes earlier... :oops:

Just in case anyone is wondering, the eggs and yogurt were not mixed together. Yikes.

Thanks, whitway!

Today was Day 5 on my nosdiet, and it was fine: no snacks, no sweets, and no seconds for me today. I'm waiting on my nosdiet book to arrive; it should be here any day now.

Today was also Day 5 of shovelglove for me and I am baffled as to how I can be so exhausted after only 14 minutes! I used to have to work out at the gym for almost an hour to feel like this! I guess that's a good thing, huh?

Day 6:

Success!

On the other hand, it's becoming increasingly difficult to fight the snacking urges. Haven't given in yet, but still... :twisted:

I find myself looking forward to the weekend in a somewhat unhealthy manner. Maybe it will subside by then.

Also day 6 of shovelglove today - boy, that's a fun workout.
