I’ve been on TRT for about 6 years. It’s all above board and prescribed by my PMD. He scared that it’ll kill me hence my dose is miniscule without any anti-estrogenic agents or HCG. It’s 0.6 every two weeks. Comes out to 120 mg every two weeks. It should be weekly and a bit higher. But he...

Gout persists. I made the mistake of continuing steps and last night it bit my left ankle. I was going to mountain bike today, but it’s extremely windy and getting ready to rain. I was also planning on working out in the afternoon And that’s gonna be on hold as well. Only had one smoothie...

I worked as a hospitalist before I retired. I must have pronounced hundreds of people and coded just as many. I’ve intubated people who crashed and were on the floor and those who threw an embolus right in front of me. It’s a sight to see someone turn blue and then red from the feet up the legs...

Can I suggest a leather parka? There’s one on eBay for 44 bucks. I stand by parkas because through the entirety of my high school life I had a married woman chasing me and tracking me after she saw me wearing a faux Andrew Marc leather parka...

You’re in a funk like I was. Motivation>habits. Reinforcements, failures, “successes” are all self demonizing no matter how you swing it. I prefer the grind, taking baby steps and if there was a book that I know will address what you are facing it is “The Slight Edge”, by Jeff Olson. KYIL...

Recovery day yesterday with generalized persistent soreness. Lo carb didn’t come to mind then except some Tylenol before bed. Neighbor from Cali finally sold his house and flew in to sign off and hand over the keys, it’s a house that I was babysitting. He took me grocery shopping. I know. He...

That’s awesome. I’m happy to hear its working out. What does your T-shirt say, btw? Just curious. It’s not my business that I’m looking to promote; I read your previous post. It’s a young man that I’ve known since pretty much the day he was born who’s moved back into the area and recently...

Official weight 249. Eating jalapeño cheese and strawberries. Down 2 lbs this past week. Doctor gave me a clean bill of health. I’m off any blood pressure medication, my blood pressure is good. Labs are good with the exception of uric acid. He asked me what I did for exercise, and I told him I...

You’re hitting a slump. You know where the issues could be with your slump, right? Personally, I would’ve called her on her drunkenness. Is she lacking companionship or is she hitting the wall or what? This is analogous to this to my former marriage. 27 years and she makes unilateral...

I’ve been following along. Primarily because I’d like to understand Facebook ads a little better and how to grow a business using them. Noah Kagan is an YT personality who showed up on my watch list last year or two years ago. He interviewed a guy who runs a 120k/yr window washing business...

Epiphanies. 1. I cut back on ground beef and Lo and behold I lose 6 lbs. it’s the fats. I noticed I gain visible fat quickly after pizza which clued me in to this almost 2 months in. Some would say duh; it is what it is. 2. I’ve been doing doing Tabata workouts. 20 secs on 110 secs off or 20...

16422 steps yesterday. Just did 1000 strides with 1 mile in less than 14 minutes. A ways to go compared to the guys hauling in the elliptical a at the gym. I found a book in my stash from 2005, “workouts in a binder” by dirk friel, meant for indoor cycling back when I was getting coached...

Weight: 252. Down 5 lbs. I can see the change on my face. It’s either bloating or more than likely CAULIFLOWER RICE FOR THE WIN!!!! I did it. Im trading. I took a loss but no one learns from the sidelines. Stock came around in the afternoon and jumped almost 180 points. Oh well live and...

This is what sucks about medicine nowadays. I did night call and I was admitting 16 people a night. It’s brutal. Add to that kids, open relationships, and the encompassing responsibilities. Not everyone is built for it and I must admit you’ve done the right thing. It kind of sucks all around. If...
