HW 220 / SW 190 / CW 171 / GW 120 / LW 111
(as of 1 May 2026)
As life happens and my abilities or needs change, my goals might change — but I'm working towards these things right now:
Short-term goals
Fitness
Walk 400 miles in 2026
2026 May – 190 mi
2026 April – 150.5 mi
2026 March – 77.75 mi
Strength train at least 3x/week May–September 2026
2026 walking goal – 400 miles
Completed so far – 211 miles
I guess I don’t have much today for this recap. I started my strength training program (according to plan). I haven’t lost any weight (not according to plan).
Other cardio this week – 10 minutes [stair machine]
Strength training this week – 3 hours
Avg kcal/day – 1,440
I’ve been steadily lifting heavier over the last 3 weeks. This week I did a set at 75 lb for deadlift and a set at 60 for squat, which are both almost at my 1RM from the beginning of the month. I know it’s just newbie gains and this kind of rapid progress won’t last forever, but right now it feels GREAT.
my coworker (who is also chronically Weird With Food TM) was """complaining""" about not having had anything but coffee all day and I — and adult professional wearing a blazer — did not quote the stupid should we invite bella hadid meme, please clap
