Moving seems like it’ll be a weight loss activity.
The kitchen, obviously, had more ready access to calories.
With a soda fountain you may never lose weight 🙂
Whereas at a highly physical job you’re not really going to down calories.
Half a sandwich, 16oz juice, 16oz milk, did it for me on a roughly 6 hour shift, moderate in effort – there was one hour where I did solidly 30 flights carrying boxes and totes down some annoyingly small stairs – my feet way to big for each step.
The only one running boxes at the time, only two of us in the house because…the driver of another three man crew threw a hissy fit and no shit drove off simply having had my crew lead, the job’s crew lead, tell him that we needed to get our truck where he was parked.
That he’d started loading the wrong truck.

Mind you it’s only two days in, moving apparently subbed for kitchen work – as I didn’t receive an emailed kitchen schedule, and my psyche is far better.
I punched out at 330pm, and just sighed at having no gym to go have a blast lifting weights and being social at.
There was an urge to go run bleachers.
I liked that I felt this urge.
I genuinely am at about the point of training for moving outside of work.
I want loads of physical activity.
Getting used to 100 flights of stairs would serve multiple purposes.
•mover job = easier
•for cardio, running them
•weight loss, for abs & more handsome= pretty boy status as well as mover job = easier
Win Win Win
And for kicks shoulder something as I do so. Maybe my 70lb heavy bag, maybe rebuild a sandbag.
The customer didn’t believe that I sprinted when I was in high school, but I ran the 200m at only 20-30lbs lighter than I am now.
•don’t be a germaphobe
•be highly physical, at work + outside of work
•lift weights
•run bleachers
•ask out the pretty ones til you have the three girlfriends that you joke about having
•see if a swim buoy and wetsuit allow for winter swimming – I like swimming, the lake could be on the table this way
…..
I felt this in the past, and am experiencing it immediately again now that I’m working moving jobs.
•I want to be physical!
•I want to be social!
Moving puts you in a good place for both!
As you have to be good with the customers, where shooting the shit – plus politeness, makes the day go better, and the high level of physicality entailed by the job keeps your feet wet for loving and having a robust physicality as well.

16oz of honey roasted peanuts is 2619 calories, 122g protein – at the regular grocery store it costs $2.50, while it may be less elsewhere.
That’s better than both 1000 nutritious calories, and 40g protein per dollar in an easy to snack on hands free package.
This package, while I’ve yet to bring it to work, has supplied me with two after work snacks so far, about 40% of the package each time.
In the next few days I’ll buy two or three, so as to both have plenty on hand, and to see if this pattern holds so as to not waste them by overstocking myself up.
I actually still had the unfinished one from 2½ years ago, about 20% left in fact – I tossed it out last night
…..
I’m eating pretty clean right now, real nutritious.
Meat for dinner, ½ salami sandwich for lunch, cranberry juice, milk, peanuts, a little bit of cookies.
Moving is probably making this more streamlined, instinctive.
I feel so good right now. The bad don’t matter. The following FEELS SO RIGHT…it’s my time.
…..
My God, I drove into work this morning WITHOUT a sense of dread!
I haven’t watched porn or masturbated since before my first shift here.
So far I’m batting .500 on “lifting after work”, but – free – I don’t give a damn whether this is .000 or 1.000!
Persistence & Tenacity
