My papers don't allow me to travel past the Central California border. I had to have a sponsor to travel beyond even the Orange Curtain, then Chris vouched for me so I was able to get up to Santa Monica.
However... On the diet front, this is the time (2-3 weeks in) when I get bored, frustrated, annoyed, etc. at the diet. The big, quick progress is done and things are slowed way down. I'm freakin' hungry on huge deficit, but on a "mild" one, nada happens. Frustrating. My face is thin, my pants are loose, I'm veiny, and did I mention hungry? I'm back up to 183 after a stint at 180, yet I didn't really do anything to fuck that up. My body is revolting. The stress of the dieting causes me many feelings, such as frustrated and annoyed, which are two of the primary male feelings, the others being things like hungry, itchy, sleepy, bored, and horny.
Right now, I'm hungry. I just ate food, so I shouldn't be, but I know it's more. It's nerves and all that crap. Typing for hours and concentrating on tiny little cells (spreadsheets) and clicking on little bitty boxes over and over and over and over and over and over again. So, I feel jumpy, like when my blood sugar is low, but I don't think that's it. It's not coffee, either, since I haven't had any since this morning.
Sorry dude. It is interesting how your face and arms are so much leaner than the rest of you. A lot of guys would kill for that.
And I'm fascintated that apparently Aoife just carries vaseline around, just in case. I do the same thing with my baseball glove and always carry it in my car's trunk, but I'm totally unprepared for a spontaneous lube opportunity.

True, and I'm kinda scared to venture into the Orange Veil. I've heard nobody gets out alive.
We're not cool enough to live in NorCal Tina. Seriously. I would move up there in a heartbeat.

I hit the park with the TRX. Nice day out, although it rained earlier. Now it's hot and sunny.
A1, Quasi-Handstand Pushups/feet on chest high wall (5/6/6)
A2, TRX Pistols (6/6/6)
A3, TRX Rows (9/8/8)
B1, TRX Balance Lunges (12/15/15) - what's up with 12 then 15s? Weird
B2, TRX Pushups (8/10/10) - first round was actually handles at 12" off the ground, 2-3 were just off the sand. I guess it's a balance thing. round one was shaky.
Intermittent Fasting Pro - sometimes it's cool that you forget to get hungry.
Intermittent Fasting Con- sometimes you forget to get hungry and don't eat before you workout. Oops.
So Roland, tonight we did a little training on the beach and were hanging out with Odgerel here, who recently moved from Mongolia. He's teaching Paul, and has some other students around.
So I think when you come up you can ask him to show you some mobility stuff to get you squatting. hahaha
