Yay! I'm taking a welfare judging elective this fall and part of our grade is attending the consortium! I'm so happy that it is here this year---maybe we will meet up!

So summer's basically a third over, and I've gotten nothing done that I had told myself I would. What have you all managed to accomplish (or not accomplish) so far
Assays. Many assays.

I got my jaw cut & broken open in multiple places, so does that count?? Umm other than that? Nothing really. Had some family come in late May/ early June, visited family in Chicago after that. Other than that, stalking SDN and catching up on SPN.So summer's basically a third over, and I've gotten nothing done that I had told myself I would.

Nice work cheathac! I've never heard of Ideal Protein but I googled it and it looks interesting! Best of luck!Still loving my job.... did an open heart procedure on a pig last week that was pretty awesome.
I'm starting a weight loss diet Monday called Ideal Protein... anyone heard of it? My goal is to lose enough to be able to join the army.. I have to lose a lot but I'm determined to live a healthier life and feel better. I've not always been overweight, but have gained probably 100+ pounds in about 4-5 years. I'm tired of being looked at and always feel bad at family gathering. Here's to a new me. Hopefully I can put my hard work ethic to this and get it done!!!

Thats what post jaw surgery has been like for me! I can't get enough food in, and I've lost 4.5 lbs since Wednesday morning... :OThanks!!!!!! I will keep you guys posted.. I don't even wanna wait till Monday, I want to start ASAP!! Yeah it puts you in a ketosis state so that your body starts using the carb storage for fuel. And for the first couple weeks you can't exercise since you can lose muscle mass due to having a huge calorie deficit. I've seen most people say they've lost 3-5 lbs/week pretty consistently so that gives me some hope!!

Man oh man. Hardly anything except working a ton. I love the GP I'm working in but when I was hired in, I let them know I was hoping to work around 30 hours a week. Reason being that I wanted to enjoy summer and try to plan some fun things. I've been consistently putting in 45 hour weeks. Not sure how to back out now. I do however, have a two week vacation in July to visit my brother in California so I feel like I can't complain. I'm extremely torn about staying on very part time (like every other Saturday or Sunday) at this practice while in school. So often we stay 1-2 hours past close to accommodate everything that comes through the door and I just don't think that will work with school.
Also the lumbosacral region of my back has been killing me for about 3 months despite NSAIDs, better shoes, massage therapy, and laser therapy. Going to the doctor on July 5th to get that sorted out hopefully.
Sorry for the whines frands.
About 200 pages left in Winds of Winter with 23ish days left before season 7 of Game of Thrones is out.
(I think she meant a Dance with Dragons because I also had a moment of "WHAT" lol)Waaaaaaait what?? Is that book out??
Tell us more about your trip plans! As for work, you need to do what's best for you Wally. Talk to them about it and remind them. If they don't want to work with you, then leave (on good terms). Hope your back feels better
Hahahaha I HOPE!!! Cause that would have totally just changed my rest-of-the-summer plans!(I think she meant a Dance with Dragons because I also had a moment of "WHAT" lol)

Ooh what were you planning on accomplishing? I keep on feeling like I should be more productive, but then I realize I can't do a whole lot right now- no sense in packing when I still have another month here.
I'm trying to get into some good habits before school starts. I just finished week 3 of 8 of Couch to 5k, which still puts me closer to the couch than a 5k but I'm getting there! I plan on starting with the Headspace app (meditation) on Monday. I've been cooking pretty healthfully and made my first slow cooker meal (Indian chickpeas. pretty good) this week.
I've also been using my free time to make some less healthy things, like a key lime pie and pineapple sorbet. Oh, and I tried French braiding my hair today. It looks like something died on the back of my head
yaaaaaassssssssslow cooker meal
You'll get there!!! Can you braid on other people too?Oh, and I tried French braiding my hair today. It looks like something died on the back of my head
Prolonged ketosis can do a number on your body systems, so while it's effective for weight loss just know what you're doing beyond what the program says. I'd suggest doing light weight full body exercise those first couple weeks anyway, cause even if you're not building muscle you're at least maintaining what you got. And if anything it gets you used to a new lifestyle. Also you don't want to drop weight too quickly, your skin needs time to adjust. Keep up the good work cheat, let us know how it goes
you draw?!Things that didn't involve spending a week lying on the couch with the phone and doing nothing lol. Books, games, foreign language, drawing. All the stuffs...but alas.
You sound like you're productive though, I'm gonna come hang with you and do all the things

I first learned to braid on other people and then figured it out on myself (was easier for me personally because I had the general idea down) but I know people who can only do it on themselves and not anyone else (including my sister)Hmm that's a good idea. I can make really pretty braided bread, but stuff on the back of my head is an entirely different story.

Are you trying to do it in front of a mirror? That helped me a teeny bit at the beginning (not a mirror in the back, but in the front, somehow helped me a little)
that feel....Part of the issue is that I'm impatient
that feel....
Once did a lace braid that went from the top of my head, down towards my ear, then crossed over the back of my head to below my other ear. SO FREAKING TEDIOUS. I was so done. I had to do it twice because it ended too high up and was like on my ear and i was just so done and my arms started hurting from like an hour of braiding hahahaMe French braiding: Take a little piece of hair, and cross it over. Take a little piece of hair, and cross it over. TAKE A HUGE CHUNK OF HAIR AND JUST SHOVE IT SOMEWHERE.
first time I soaked/cooked black beans in my crock pot instead of buying the canned stuff... I ate beans for like a week. underestimated exactly how much I was making.It turns out that a 7 qt crock pot makes a lot of food!

(also, what foreign language you tryin to learn?)
Well, I can't draw for ****, so you to me you probably are a good drawer, even if you don't think so.Not well, no. Lol. More like relearn language for impending trip

ooooooo impending trip!? WHERE YA GOING?!?
I'm going down. I'm yelling timberrrr
I hope you actually yelled timber.
I was just thinking of how lazy I'm being when I read this. I feel like I still have a ton of stuff to do before my move but playing video games is so much more fun... I have two trips next month I'm super excited for, but that also means less time to accomplish stuff.So summer's basically a third over, and I've gotten nothing done that I had told myself I would.
