Grandpa Tokin’s Perpetual

Warmed up a bit here, won’t be long.
I hope the warmer weather will knock this virus shit down a little. I’m very ready to start some outdoor fun...growing and fishing... :headbanger:
 
OMFG!!!! I hadn’t checked in a few days!
I’ve officially lost 101.4 lbs. I wasn’t expecting to see that as I’ve been really waiting for that first weigh-in with a 100 lbs loss. I expected to see it next week not today. I’m so freaking excited! This is a milestone that has been with me from the beginning. I knew I needed to lose over 100 lbs, but the reality of attaining that goal seemed so far away and so unattainable that I nearly gave up many times. I’m nearly in tears writing this...sounds silly for an old guy I know, but I’m full-on emotional about this one.

Damn it! Usually when I celebrate something there’s ice cream involved...Doh! Life is cruel.:rofl:

please stay safe everyone!:love:

I celebrated with pancakes this morning. OMG! I forgot how good those are. I also did no workout...I wasn’t really wanting a day off, but I took it anyway. Rosin Dabs are a thing at my house right now. :cheesygrinsmiley:
 
Killer back workout this morning. I then did my normal 45 minute walk. Feel really good and we are staying home and staying safe. I hope everyone is doing the same.

I checked in on the Tropicana Cookies clone and she’s coming back to life. Poor little thing...She got shocked pretty bad, but the new leaves are coming in green and there’s new root growth which is the key. I’m pretty sure she’s going to start filling out nicely in the next few weeks. I’m looking forward to this one. Enjoy!




 
It was a sewing day here. My wife and I made 14 cloth masks for our daughter's family and ourselves. I spent my grow improvement money on a pair of civilian powered CBRN/NBC full face masks and a bunch of P3 ULPA (ultra Low Penetration Air) filters which filter out 99.9999+% of viruses to 0.12 microns. Military surplus would have been cheaper, but make the wearer look like an alien. I'm not out to scare the kiddies or soccer moms yet.
 
Great workouts this week. I’m feeling really good physically, but still anxious about losing more fat for some reason. It’s becoming more of an obsession and really irritating at times. I really need to chill and stop worrying about it...at least that’s what my wife keeps telling me. She’s normally right...or so she says...

Be safe please! :love:

Cut up 1-2 ripe bananas and freeze them. Then put them in a food processor with about 2 tbsp almond butter. A pinch of salt and cinnamon. A few raisins never hurt either. Might need to add a bit of milk, I always used almond milk cause I was on a Whole30. Makes a great ice cream like treat.
 
Rib day...yes, I’m eating ribs. Hahaha!

The Tropicana Cookies clone is still alive and looking much better than a week ago. The new root growth looks really healthy. I topped her today to promote some side shoots. She’ll get a fresh bucket this week—probably tomorrow—I’m keeping her at a 3 ml Calmag, 3 ml grow, 3 ml micro, 3 ml bloom, and 2 ml hydroguard (all per gallon of RO). I normally do 3 gallons per bucket. Very simple and easy is the way I like it.

I hope everyone is staying safe and healthy. Happy Easter!
