Fat Nerd Fit

Lots of fun news going on in my world, but nothing I can officially announce, yet. I have several projects in the work that I’m super excited and hopeful for and I can’t wait to move forward with them. Things I can announce right now: 1) I’m all set for Dallas FanExpo in two weeks. I’ve got the tickets in hand, the days off of work, and cosplays in the works! 2) I am back in the fanfiction game and posting my stories on Archive Of Our Own https://archiveofourown.org/users/SouthernChickie/pseuds/SouthernChickie new Stargate stories are up and one is getting regular updates. 3) I’m one week away from finishing the AdvoCare One80 challenge and will be posting my updates. Once I get the all clear I’ll update you! FINGERS CROSSED!!!

I’m all caught up on Stargate: Origins and I’m still not quite sure what I think about it. I’ve been sitting here trying to come up with a decent summary of what’s going on and it’s a lot harder than it sounds like. Partially because so much is going on, but nothing really happens. The Professor is kidnapped by Nazis who want to go through the Stargate for Nazi reasons leaving Catharine behind on Earth to grab her friend Beal (who I cannot stress enough is NOT ERNEST) and his sidekick Wasif to go through the Stargate to rescue him. On Abydos, we are introduced to a new Goa’uld, Aset.

Aset easily captures the Nazis and the Professor. The head Nazi in a power move shows Aset some Nazi propaganda movies (which, it’s cool they used actual footage) and Aset falls for it. She decides that clearly the Tau’ri are ready to be s

I’ve hit a new milestone in my working out: I’m not eating enough. My usual regime used to be protein shake in the morning, protein bar for lunch, then a dinner. Now that I’ve added weights to my workouts I’m starving by the time I get home for dinner and am making bad food choices. February is the first month I gained weight when I weighted in at the end of the month. I blame bad food choices and lax commitment. I’m keeping up with my workouts but am adding more fuel to my lunches. For this week my food regime will be: protein shake for breakfast, lunch of roasted broccoli and brussels sprouts, with mashed sweet potatoes, and a banana, and dinner will be bean tacos, or a salad, or a sandwich on whole grain bread. I’m not letting this backslide stop me or slow me down. These things happen and the only way to move forward is to move forward. I’ve got my meal prep done. I’ve got my workout schedule in my planner. I’ve got determination and drive. Let’s do this!
