Good luck with your goals!
this accountability stuff is more embarrassing than i expected, i feel like i'm at confessional. forgive me hexbear for I was not my best.
I didn't do my exercises and i have no excuse i just got high too much and was lazy 😬
I had alcohol socially but 2x which is a bit much and not in line with my goals.
I was able to eat mostly healthy though, much salad consumed this week and more coming.
Going to do better this week. Get my PT in and eat very healthy and less animal products. And quit the dang weed again.
12 hours smoke free, so far so good. But the terrible mood usually doesn't set in until day 2 or 3.
Ty! So far so good, like I said. I'll update tonight when I hit 24 hrs.
Does anyone know any tricks to getting hired?
Even if there’s zero qualifications, on the rare occasion I do get noticed. The recruiter thinks “meh” and rejects me.

DOOMLocalOaf is becoming more powerful than ever...........................I'm gonna come!
Trying to get back on my running habit. Also all those fitness people on Rednote make me want to practice my core a bit.
Just please be careful with that and only use bodyweight for a while.
It can be really easy to injure yourself that way, especially if you're starting with a weak core.
Look into hollow body holds, on top of being a good core exercise on their own, that position is incredibly stable and strong for your lower back and will translate to other skills and just generally injury prevention
My year is going well so far, despite the world burning down around us. Getting involved in different things. Meeting new people and enjoying myself even though I'm really busy.
I already started reading again and watching cool films this weekend. My hope is to keep this going next week too!
Happy and having a good time. Hope all of you comrades are well too!
Typical Hexbear answer but I'm just reading Lenin. I first encountered Lenin when I was an idealistic anarcho-kiddo and didn't appreciate his wisdom like I can now. Half way through Imperialism now, then State and Revolution is up next.
And I started Kieslowski's Three Colors trilogy. Watched Blue and White so far, tonight will finish up with Red. Absolutely beautiful films! White had a nice, maybe unintentional, critique of Poland's experience of post-USSR shock therapy when you contrast it to Kieslowski's Communist-era Decalogue.
that sounds very nice you're really getting off to a good start!

Posted about it yesterday but I'm still porn free. Tomorrow I'm starting quitting smoking/vaping, I already tested one of the patches today and the gum and seems to work so far. I expect to be pretty miserable still though.
