The Remastered Penis-Out: Now in SUHD

[Grouch]

Just rolled in. 4am. I can actually grab about 2 1\2 hours sleep.

thats rough hope you don't burn yourself out.

I never really counted my job towards any level of exercise I do but I suppose it counts because I can be on my feet all day.

Today though I had cake in work that someone made and brought in.

My job is pretty active. According to this app(I got a fitbit to try out as soon as i finish setting it up) I usually do 7-10k steps a day. I pretty much only sit at work.

Mix that with ~2.5-3hours of disk(disc?) gold I guess it could be possible.

Supposedly did 16.11km.

Which is 52854 feet.

The disc gold field is apparently 1.7km-1.9km(high on both ends).

Still feels a bit too high, but meh. I'm constantly walking all day, even if in circles and just small paths to grab something all day.

Sounds like you're doing a pretty decent amount of exercise anyway, regardless of the accuracy or lack thereof of the app. Are you trying to lose weight? Or just set up the app as a curiosity?

[Spose']

Mix of both. Don't want to be obese and as self hating in a year or two when my niece is growing up. ^-^

Yeah, I never really thought about it as exercise either until one of the other waitresses who was trying to lose a little weight showed me the pedometer app on her phone at the end of the night once. Didn't realise just how much we were moving around.

Aww, sounds like a good incentive to lose weight. I know from talking to a couple of friends who are working to lose weight that sometimes just the fact that "it's healthy" isn't enough motivation on its own, and that sometimes you need that little something to give you a push and get you started. So it's good that you have that target of being healthier and happier in two years' time for your niece's sake to keep you driven and motivated. I'm lucky in that being mostly vegan plus having what I assume must be a fairly fast metabolism has meant that I've never had to deal with obesity myself (though there have been times where depression has pushed me to stop eating and I've slipped towards the other end of the spectrum), but I can definitely sympathise with the whole self-loathing thing. And I know that exercise has always helped me there. I always feel much, much better about myself after a long walk or playing some sports, and I've always felt like it's one of the best means of maintaining mental health as well as physical. Hopefully it'll be just as positive for you! Good luck!

@Tassadar Re: accidental cake eating, my girlfriend is one of the chefs at a Japanese and Korean restaurant here where they also make their own cakes and desserts. Usually they sell out, as they make them fresh in quite limited quantities each day, and they tend to be quite popular because they're all Japanese / Korean influenced desserts that you can't find in many other places in the city. But whatever doesn't sell she gets to bring home. And there was one day when none of the customers who came had seemed that keen on dessert for whatever reason, and we wound up with like eight generously sized portions of green tea tiramisu in our fridge that needed to be eaten. Tried not to think too hard about how many calories that was. :'D Being in close proximity to somebody who regularly makes sweet things is dangerous (and often delicious) business.

Haha, yeah, when my older brother bought his 40GB one it seemed monstrously huge given that our computer before then was really outdated, and we had like a 2GB HDD in it. Times change quickly. :'D

Agreed. God knows what its going to be like in another decade

[Stark]

I need to post here more. I keep missing people

Got up at 630am, worked all day. Heading back up to finish the floor in about an hour.

No, this wasn't accidental cake eating at all. It was a thing in work where someone must make a cake each week, bring it in and has some, it was quite nice too.

You're a nurse, aren't you.

No.

I've never heard of a tradition like that, but I like it already.
