I actually LOLd a little at the salad dressing, but I am happy to hear it worked out!

Did you do a review of the Freedom Ice? I might have missed it, but was curious before I buy it.

And how are those Kirkland meatballs? Do they have pork in them?

The salad dressing is a good idea for me, because I eat 3-4 of those salads each week, so that'll be one good way to use that powder. Coffee in the morning as well, so yeah.

The Freedom Ice was part of a purchase along with other items. It was not a giveaway. I do take the time to write detailed reviews for the few giveaways I decide to participate in, but I don't always have the time to review items I pay for.

Some say Freedom Ice is right up there with Blood Orange.
For me, it is not, but it still tastes very good.
I don't think you'll be disappointed.
I like it a lot. I have a few scoops left in that tub.

The meatballs are beef.
They are a quick/convenient meal for me.
A bit high in calories if you ask me, but that's fine.
One serving is 90g and I usually go with two servings which is 180g.
That is like 460 calories for about 9 meatballs.
Meh ... kinda high, but I have this after a large salad and a couple cheese sticks, so I am already quite full.

I wouldn't go with this for a single meal choice.
Anyhow. Here ...

Thanks for the posting with the info on the meatballs. The label doesn't look too bad at all. I think I will search them out next Costco trip.

silly resistance bands ... who'd have thunk

Hi Andre.
Thanks for stopping by.
Logging helps me keep myself accountable.
It's all about consistency, no matter what approach one takes.

Nice high-rep session!

Thanks John.
Since I don't have access to free weights for now, I had to make good friends with BW exercises, my resistance bands, and yes, high reps

Better than no exercise at all.
I am focusing on nutrition 80% and exercise about 20%.

Push-up session at work ... LOL
Had a session of to-failure push-ups

The last set, I literally fell on the ground and could not lift myself off of the ground ... talk about failure ... LOL

I had to slide up the windows in my classroom when the workout was done. I could barely get them to move. I got a very good workout. Did not use a Pre for this workout.

Running a bit low on Protein powders, so I just ordered a tub of MuscleTech Premium Gold (Vanilla Ice Cream)

Checking in Bro! Hope you are good.

Checking in Bro! Hope you are good.

Hi John.
Thanks for checking in.

I am doing very well.
I am very busy, but I am doing well.

It's getting a bit difficult to come in and write my log in every day.
There also doesn't seem to be much interest in it, except for you and a couple other occasional people, so I am kind of logging on my own.

My nutrition doesn't change much from day to day (~2000cals) and my workouts are basic compound exercises at home. Nothing too exciting.

I will continue to push through and basically log on my own, but I don't know if it makes a whole lot of sense to log in here every day. If I change my mind, I can always get back in here and log my repetitive meals and boring workouts ... LOL

I was thinking to return to a gym membership.
That would change everything for sure!!!
I just don't have the 1-2 hours every other day to go to the gym.

Anyhow, I might check in here occasionally and write updates.
In the meantime, I'll try to check in with your log and see how you're doing.

Thanks a lot for checking in

Brother, there are more reading than you may know. Like you, commenting and posting is tough. I may not always comment, but I do follow and read at least every other day.

Life is busy, but as I have shared with others, if you don't take care of yourself, it will be hard to take care of anyone or anything else. Make time for your own health!

Thanks for your concern, David.
I appreciate it.

I was referring more to daily posting/logging in here, not in general.
I am not giving up on being healthy. That's an ongoing goal.

I just find it hard to come in here daily and log things that don't change that much to begin with: same foods, same types of workouts, etc. I don't see how anyone reading these posts would benefit from reading such repetitive posts.

Like I stated above, if I get a gym membership at some point, my workouts would change considerably for sure ... then I'd have some variety to offer in my posts.

I won't "close" this log, and I may return occasionally to share updates. Maybe when the weather starts to cooperate I can add some outside workouts: jogging, etc.

At this point, I am eating ~2000 calories a day which is a bit under Maintenance, and doing 2-3 workouts a week using bodyweight compound exercises as well as resistance bands.

I appreciate your concern.
Talk to you later.

Ah, but you are teaching and others are learning. The hardest lesson many in fitness have to learn is that consistency is the key to success. I appreciate your logs, because they demonstrate creativity and consistency.Do you do things or eat things like I do? No, but you have discovered what works for you at this time in your life and you are consistent in performing them. Don't stop that.
