Cord's Quest

I'm back.

Had a pretty decent time in Vancouver, but am glad to be home again.

My daughter had been sick for the last two weeks, as had my wife, and I was somewhat ill off and on.

Took our daughter to the doctor yesterday, and it looks like she probably had H1N1, which means my wife and I probably had it too. We're all doing pretty well now, though.
I guess that means we won't need to get the shots for it.

Hope everyone has been doing well.
 
Yeah, we all survived. It's just another flu.

All is mostly well. Still doing the StrongLifts programme, and have been doing so for three weeks. It's going well, and I have had some successes with it.

Like: I can now do a chin-up!

Like: I can overhead press 80lbs for 5x5 without undue strain.

Like: My squat form is better than ever.


I gotta go for a family walk now, so peep ya later!

Chin-Up?!?!?! WOOT SUCCESS!!!!

Hiya Cord!!! My apologies once again for not being here for ya, net down.

I missed ya. Hoped you're doing well. How are you? Did you happen to go to your Daughter's School for Remembrance Day?

Take Care, TTYL :)​
 
Oooh Glad to hear that you guys are all doing better!!!..Man, that damn flu is going around!!!....I hate how people say..."Flu Season"....like as if it's something to look forward to!....It's annoying that they attach such a wonderful word as "season" which represents the worlds changing beauties throughout the year to such a WHACK ASS time in which people get infected with disease and virus!.....Pttttrrrrr....."FLU FUCK YOUR DAYS" are going around is more like it....


....Regardless....:grouphug:....let's not talk about FLUs...hahahha...:D!!!...Love ya buddy.....!!!!
 
Hey all.

Thanks for popping by, everyone.

I haven't been here much lately - for a few days I couldn't log on - it just wouldn't let me in.

And I am spending most of my time on other fora these days.

Things are going pretty good. Weight loss has slowed to a crawl, which is annoying. However, fitness level continues to improve.

Set new PR's on my squats and overhead press the other day. That was pretty cool.

Not much else to report right now.
 
hey cord,
just wanted to say thankyou for always dropping in on my diary to check in on me. there's a whole bunch of us who joined the forum at around the same time and it seems most others i knew on here have slowly been leaving one by one. i myself have not been any better lol! this time i'm hoping to be on here abit more often because it helps keep me grounded in terms of accountability. with 6 weeks remaining to the end of the year i'm hoping to give it all i've got so that i can start 2010 on a new slate.

i hope that all's been well with you? i'm glad to see your still making great progress (especially since i last was on here!). will definitely keep popping in here. till next time, all the best cord :grouphug: xoxo
 
Looks like you've lost a few pounds since I last checked in with you so congrats! You're in the lower half of the 240's. I can't wait to get there! ;)
 
Yep, still gamely plugging away.

I've hit some new PR's for my lifts:

Squat: 190lbs 5x5
Bench press: 135lbs 5x5
Overhead Press: 85 lbs 5x5

Onward and upward from here!
 
Congrats on the PR. Its evidence all the hours logged are benefitting you :p

Keep the focus, looking at your meter, it looks like your on the back end of your goal.

Hoping everything is well!
 
You are just kickin' butt, aren't you?

You are an inspiration to me. I'll tackle this again... just in time for Thanksgiving. Hmmm.

It is, mostly. I admit to having stalled (or maintained) throughout October, but making small gains (or is that losses?) this month.
The weight slowly goes down - the lifting ability slowly goes up.

Yo, Chillen!

I'm just....chillin'. :)
 
Hey old buddy, haven't seen you around these parts in a while!

I hope everything is going according to plan!
 
Hey, Andy.

Actually, I'm spending my time on another diet forum these days.

Things are going well, though - thanks for asking.

Here, I'll even update my ticker for everyone.

Take care!
