Scoping Out My Addictions - Challenge V - Day 20

Assessment - Day 20 (Tuesday)

A pretty good day - staying on the diet, staying away from fried chicken, eating at home to fix that particular issue. After forgetting to schedule Cross Fit on Monday, I was back to it yesterday - doing deadlifts (with barely any weight, granted). This morning I did a Periscope (watch below) following my workout - and talk a bit about my addictions, as well as my workouts.



I did a Periscope yesterday as well, but failed to record it properly so that Katch.me could archive it. It's somewhere on my phone, but I think I'll be re-recording it's content later today. Be sure to follow me on Twitter & Periscope at @RichHopkins, and check in to my Periscopes at http://katch.me/RichHopkins.

Goals Review: 

Goal - 195 lbs  202 lbs

Start of Day 2 - 213 Went off diet, as outlined above. Steak, two KFC Chicken Breasts, M&M's, Snickers, stuffed potato burrito & some other one dollar spicy burrito from Taco Bell. I know - just horrible, especially after the good start, and the workout.

Goal - Website Revised - Investigated the viability of having someone on Fiverr do it.
Goal - Podcast Restarted - I have a plan in place.
Goal - Speak & Deliver book ready for printing - it's this week or never. I have most of it written via blog posts over the last six years. Must compile, edit, add some content, and mock it up for Create Space. 
Goal - Schedule 25 speeches - Must create call list
Goal Blog 3x week - None.
Goal - Periscope - Yes! Even if it's lost to history. 


Ancillary activities - Took Riley to Barnes & Noble so she could get a book for school - well, two of them, since the first didn't have one, and reserved it for her at another. I stayed in the car, and let her look for it, deal with customers service, etc., all on her own. Good life skills for her, and an excuse for me to sit in the car and listen to sports radio! Evaluated at Talking Ideas Toastmasters at noon. Spent time at Costco with my wife.

Podcasts - I'm going to list what I listen to, both to provide you with some listening material, and to track how much time I'm spending on podcasts.
