Just made a new post this morning about CSS Variables!

And this afternoon I'm picking up a new kitten! There will be plenty of pictures being shared on Twitter!

I got great feedback here and had fun messing around with some PWA stuff as a small task on the side because I was curious.

Discussion was really helpful and interesting.

This thread was also a ton of fun!

I had a bad calf injury last November where I ended up putting on some weight, so I'm pretty stoked that I've dropped about 11 pounds in less than a month and more coming off. I've been eating better, sleeping more and been training like a mofo. 💪

Wow! Are you following any specific diet or just overall healthier foods?

Mainly eating less (not starving myself) and not really eating as many carbs. I haven't eaten any pasta in the past month and I'll only occasionally have bread if eating a sandwich. Mostly lots of fluids (water, tea), protein (chicken, tofu) and veggies/fruits. I also generally don't eat anything after 7pm.

I've always trained at the gym by myself but to kickstart things, I joined an Orange Theory. I didn't think I would like group sessions, but so far I like it and I'm not as jiggly now 😉

Carbs only would make me put on the pounds. 🙃

I painted my apartment and finished all my stories for the current sprint before the weekend hit. Also I got news that Winds of Winter might be coming out before summer 2020 which I consider a massive personal win.
