    Me too. My buddy told me about them, he's waiting for wherever to get them back in stock. It's funny cuz him and I had just talked about how clutch transition contacts would be for our morning surfs when the sun rises while were in the water, and then boom, few weeks later he's like ya those exist and I'm getting some samples. It's the Acuvue Brand (link to transition contacts)

    I majored in business with a management information systems focus

    It's kind of like that I suppose. The MIS program at my school sucked. I took a web development class, systems analysis & design, databases, mobile app development, and network securities. I don't do any of that now though haha. My official title is IT project manager. I don't ever understand any of the IT talk that goes on, I just manage the projects timeline, budget, resources. Best part, I get the blame when the project is behind, and no credit for completing a successful project. Hooray.

    So you boss all the IT guys around lol

    Yeah my new boss found out today that I can run analyses with large database information. I was meeting with one of the guys whos designing algorithms to basically catch fraud waste and abuse of Medicaid dollars which read procedure and diagnostic code patterns in claims systems.
    I was trying to use the system and put together a few things and my boss is like OMG! You can do data mining! We need you in our analytics dept!
    I’m slowly backing away like nooo nooo I don’t do computer shit lol

    I admire people who enjoy doing all that. Not my thing.

    New low for check in's today! #202.4 this morning. Feeling pretty good still. Food is still about 2700 and only 0 minutes cardio. Carbs are still roughly 300g. Pumps and energy are going good. Can't imagine staying too long at this though before I need to drop food again. Although I am extremely happy where I am right now - I'd like my back and legs to lean out just a bit more. If only we could pick and choose where we lose fat LOL

    I wish we could pick. I want more fat on my waist and less on my quads.
    I have to get super skinny to have solid quads. I’d rather have a little around the mid section.
    I’m odd as I don’t like/want washboard abs

    Has anyone one here looked into cool sculpting?

    Funny because my quads are lean even at higher bf% and my belly is the last fat to go.

    I think a lot of people are like that. Belly is the last bit. Mine its the quads and back but belly fat slims down first around 155-170 mark.

    I think no matter what we are always unhappy with what our body does haha

    I think my beer belly is already fading. You can make out an outline of my abs when they’re flexed during a lift. They’re in there somewhere they’re just a little shy.

    I’m sore as shit from yesterday’s shoulders and traps and even more sore from Monday’s leg day. My friend wanted to surf after work today but I don’t think my body can move enough for that right now :laugh:

    5 kids, work swing shift most of the year days/ midnight shift. I love training in the gym, it improves all aspects of my life but dayum if it isn't a struggle to get in there. I like to get strong but flexibility & stamina are places I need to make improvements.
