  1. I've lost 16.4 lbs so far in 2020.  Feeling much better.  Starting to cramp slightly at night, so I need to push more water and electrolytes.

    Had my refeed today. Was ~90 hours fasted. Went to Mighty Fine and got the Beast in a bowl with bacon and chili (carbs, I know).  Added pickles and grilled japs/onions.  Forgot to add the cheese.  I thought it was automatic.  I also had some onion rings.  Next time I'd add cheese and lose the onion rings.

    I expect to gain some at tomorrow's weigh-in with the 50-60 carbs I ingested and the water I'm going to drink tonight.  You'd think that expectation was obvious, but I lost 0.2 on Sunday after eating 2+ lbs of bbq on Saturday. So who knows?

  2. I'm a total fatass again. I let the last few months of 2019 really sabotage me.  But having the calendar flip into 2020 has motivated me.  I've been back on the horse since midnight January 1st.  I fasted till Saturday, then had bbq for lunch and dinner (leftovers), and have been fasting since then.  I've lost 14 lbs so far.

    2020 goal: lose 150+ lbs.

    I want to lose another 10-15 lbs and then go back to the gym like I was doing pre-Thanksgiving.  I need to be down to a manageable weight so I can workout. Shouldn't take too much longer.

    I'm weighing every day and taking video of it.  I created a youtube page to keep track of all my weigh-ins and refeeds.  I'm hoping this will help keep me on track.  Every 50 lbs I lose, I'll take a couple photos and create a quick before & after video for youtube.

    My hometown lost to Carthage because of the head coach. I love what Troy Rogers has done for them, but we are going home because of what he did not do.

    Hail Mary was an awful decision. 

    And I was saying all 2nd half he should have replaced #8 on D. Put in 2 WRs at DB. They attacked #8 over and over and over.

  4. I had the displeasure of using TexanLive on Saturday to watch the Lampasas vs. Liberty Hill game. The cameraman was so awful, that every big play or TD was missed in the first half. It was unwatchable. Might as well have listened to a radio call of the game. I didn't even bother watching the 2nd half. It was that bad.

    I sent TexanLive a polite message to complain and request a refund of $9.95. I was ignored completely. No response. So I messaged again just now and they sent a flippant reply that they reviewed the game and only a couple plays were missed. Sure. Let's say 5 out of 50 plays were missed, but those 5 were long TD passes. Give me a break.

    They prefer bad press than refunding me $10. Fine. I'll never use them again, and I'll inform everyone I have access to that they don't know how to handle customer service in a professional manner.

  5. I always see lots of love for Matt.  I've never really had anything against him and he does good work.  But he completely ignores me on twitter and forums.  Not sure why.  Maybe it's coincidence?  Maybe he hates FanstandATX, which I'm associated with?  I don't know.

  6. Carthage fans talk a ton of trash.  They are pretty arrogant.  I guess they have reason to be with their success the last dozen years.  They sound like a lot of East Texas fans.  The football played in their bubble is the best kind, and nobody else can compare.  SEC!  I really hope their team thinks like they do.  That they can show up Friday and roll their helmet out on the field and expect a 49-14 blowout win.  They just beat a 9-4 Midlothian Heritage team 24-7 last week.  Lampasas is a better team than MH, but the Dawgs expect total domination. 

    I keep hearing that they have 2 corners that can hang with anyone Lampasas has, and that one of them will shut down Porter.  Lampasas has 4 legit WRs with speed.  Can they cover them all on every play?  They claim their LBs will stuff the run with ease.  Will they do that consistently when Lampasas spreads them out with 4 wide and forces them to think coverage first?

    I've even seen the claim that their DL is so big and fast that the Lampasas OL will be completely overrun and Ace won't be able to see over them because he's short. Ok.  Ace sees over his 6'5 guards just fine, and he's actually more dynamic on the run.  Those DBs will have to consistently cover the WRs breaking off routes and adlibbing for Ace as he rolls out and threatens to keep it.  Wait too long, and Ace runs.  Come up on him too quick, and he'll dump it over you to the receiver.

    I have no idea if the Lampasas D can stop Carthage.  I fear they'll get worn down eventually.  That Carthage OL is gigantic.  Lampasas is going to have to swarm all night.

    If Lampasas can bait them into a shootout, I think they have a good chance.

    I’d be shocked if it’s an affair unless it was somebody in the organization or married to somebody. Wondering more and more if it’s nose candy or something.

     

    Nevermind. I see that it was addressed on the previous page.
