  1. About 6 weeks in and I've held strong! No beer, bread or ice cream (my evil trinity of fattyfatass) and 99% of what I've eaten is clean/homemade. This past week was the 1st time I've really had cravings for carbs or comfort foods, but I'm also down roughly 20# so I'm pretty pleased about that! My 1% processed food = vegan buffalo chicken nuggets and Chik-Fil-A Polynesian sauce. Sometimes you come home late and need something you don't have to "make". Breakfast is either strawberries/raspberries w/ greek yogurt and honey or oatmeal w/ bananas and "scrambled" eggs. Lunch is mostly a green salad - green leaf lettuce, carrot, celery, red bell pepper, cucumber, spring onion, cherry tomatoes. Sometimes topped w/ leftover grilled chicken or salmon, but mostly just greens. Once a week lunch treat is poke bowl, but I've switched from rice base to salad base, and dropped a protein. Recently discovered the delicious Flower Child Mediterranean chicken bowl, but $18+ is a steep for the amount you get. Oddly, I don't think I've ordered a salad from Cava this entire time and that's one of the best values out there imo. Dinner is usually just a protein and veggie - usually chicken/pork/steak/salmon w/ roasted cauli/steamed broccoli/roasted sweet potato. Some others: Turkey jalapeno sausage/riced cauliflower/spinach bowl; ground turkey/kale/white bean soup (make a giant batch and eat for 2 weeks); squash/zucchini/red bell pepper over cous cous. Snacks are Granny Smith apples, tuna salad, homemade hummus and carrots, cottage cheese, lazy man's deviled egg (example: here) is my late night snack pretty much every night. The biggest drawback is ALWAYS FUCKING CUTTING OR CLEANING. Goddamn sometimes I just want to open a bag of something and eat w/o making or cleaning or order a pizza out of laziness.
  2. Alex and Yuji pipping 5th back-to-back to close out Q was badass. Stoked for Williams to be good again! Can finally wear my favorite shirt again without shame.
  3. Ha - immediately thought of all the ambulance chasers phones going off as soon as it happened.
  4. This is cool af, imo: Idov2YG6QoWU8enm.mp4
  5. One of y’all needs this dog: https://www.adoptapet.com/pet/41169028-austin-texas-american-pit-bull-terrier-mix?fbclid=PAZXh0bgNhZW0CMTEAAab6S0oEp5hfJ9w-ALCJwcf01WLhNqcsSLptAwoqj5kAzzaw3viKoQ5NEN8_aem_kq8jnoBB0Gf2l71W_q6jbg
  6. I liked George crashing with under a minute left in FP1. Bro - just bring the car home in 1 piece.
  7. The more dealerships that get torched, the higher the cost to insure.
  8. Goddamn, SAS.
  9. ballgame. Fuck off, aggy.
  10. Not going to go back to the 9th to see if this was posted.
  11. Been a minute since I've had some good schadenfreude. Close it out here, boys!

    Shit My Kid Says

    @Prepuce of Doom's brother from another mother:
  13. Ski Instructors /= Ski Patrol
  14. lolz @ SWA getting a shot in while trying to re-direct hate for their new fees:
  15. Damn bro - George Mason coach on their tourney loss:
  16. I forgot about howitzers, but those still aren't as cool as air bombing. I was thinking about the guys that hike/skin up and lob charges.
  17. One of my favorite memories of Spring Break skiing in HS over in Europe was watching the helicopters clear avalanche threats 1st thing in the morning. Using explosives from the air is way fucking cooler than how we do it over here...
  18. Not sure about boring - they’re a hell of a lot more exciting when they’re hitting 3’s. 4-26 from 3 in the 2nd half isn’t going to win any games. It does annoy me that they don’t make more of an effort to get into the paint some other way than ball screen, which makes it so easy to settle for the 3.
