Oftentimes this phrase is used to indicate a negative thing but I am thinking positively about dieting and exercise. Roughly a year and a half ago I stopped strict keto for a few reasons, one of those being my fatigue levels in my workouts were high. Fast forward to now, I am hitting a groove […]

Are you supposed to be good at your hobbies? What do you do if you suck at them? Do you still continue?This is something on my mind this morning. As someone with adhd and other mental ailments I feel the need to occupy my mind with a lot of hobbies. I’m okay at some of […]
Surviving the holidays
This life, this earthly experience, is really fucking hard and unfair. We all have to grind to navigate the obstacles that are thrown at us. I used to think life was full of wonder, but lately my mind has been clouded by doubt and heartache. When life gives you lemons, you make lemonade, but all […]
Legacy
Ya know, I try to always have this positive outlook in life but the adult experience has not been easy lately.My mother passed away in July and carrying on with that grief has been horrific at best. I’ve learned to cope by celebrating her in my actions.One of those actions is cooking. My mother was […]
Mental health updates
Oooh, what a cryptic headline! What could he mean? Who is he now? What has changed? Not much, I’m just happy. I have the Lord to thank, my son, my friends, ashwaganda vitamins, a consistent gym routine, a supportive group chat where I can vent my mental health frustrations to, proper diet. I don’t have […]
Back to keto, with some tweaks
I don’t care how much muscle I put on due to adding carbs to my diet but I am tired of not losing weight. So a couple weeks ago I went back to keto eating and I have since dropped SEVEN POUNDS of (i’m assuming water) weight. Now the cons… My workouts are EXHAUSTING and […]
I truly don’t know what’s happening with me. I feel like i’m spiraling out of control, I will have 2 or 3 days of clean eating then I will fall off the wagon and binge. I know it’s a mental health thing, I have to be better, I will be better, I will succeed, I […]
What now?
This may come as a shock considering my lengthy history with keto, but I have switched to macro tracking and using a fitness app to better my strength training. Yes, i’ve heard the yells, “How dare he!?” I’ve heard the laments of the keto community, “He has abandoned us!” I benefit from having strong counsel […]
My 2022 fitness summary
Much like Sp0tify Wr@pped (no free promo here bitches!) where it summarizes your music at year’s end, I dug into my 2022 fitness stats. I found a lot to celebrate: 86+ gym workouts, monthly averages of 1100+ calories burned, good sustainable heart rate numbers, etc. So it got me thinking, wouldn’t it be cool if […]
Breakfasts
Breakfast can be anything I want it to be! Sometimes I’ll do sausage, or leftover roast, or just eggs and spinach! But breakfast help me stay on track, high protein and high fat ones! A lot of the time I’ll fry up some sausage, add eggs and spinach, season everything well, add some cheese and […]
