Augmented August
I've adopted some bad habits and am like 7-10 pounds heavier than where I want to be compared to a month ago.
I start a new job next week, gonna pay like 35% more approximately factoring in bonuses and stuff. Might as well treat it like a new job, new me, new life.
The plan:
- Continue going to the gym daily before work, except WALK to the gym as opposed to drive, then after the workout, JOG back. Walking to it so that I don't arrive a sweaty phark on the benches.
- I work remote and I own a treadmill. Walk on it for 20 minutes a day, maybe some or all of that can be during my shift. Strive for 15k+ steps every day, tracked on my Smart Watch.
- Stop smoking black & milds. They've creeped up on me, I used to do it once or twice a week, lately been doing it almost daily. Bad habit, just gonna cold turkey it.
- Get back into green a little as my way to feel something without Calories. No I never get munchies, srs. Also I only try to get to like 2-3/10, never too crazy high.
- Except Saturdays, track my macros via MyFitnessPal every day, primarily focusing on Calories tbh, but I avoid carbs wherever I can by default anyways.
- Except Saturdays, no more drinking. This is a big part of why I'm weighing more than I'd like, srs.
- Except Saturdays, groceries only. No more uber eats / restaurant foods.
- Except Sundays - if unsuccessful on Saturdays with scoring a chick that is - no fapping, and if I do fap, only once a week.
Let's gooooooooooooooooooooooooooo.
I'm posting this now to get a headstart and make it more easy to habitualize these things come August, I'm starting July 25th.
If anyone wants to come up with their own Augmented August, feel free to post here and share updates about how it's going. I'll post in this thread myself from time to time with updates.

Posting to sub and track progress. Hopefully other miscers join in. Things have been going great for me lately, but I did change up my lifting schedule so instead of PPL hitting each one day/week(Sat., Sun., and Wed.) I’m doing PushPull and hitting legs during each workout 4 days/week(Sat.,Sun., Wed., and Thurs.). This is my first week of the new program so I’ll be interested to see how much it helps over the course of the month. Already do no porn and no fap, but I have sex multiple times/week so that’s easy. And I already limit alcohol to 1-2 days/week at the most. Diet is really good, but I am thinking about replacing coffee with tea. Not sure about that one yet though.
