Year-End Summary

Well, I've reached it: New Year's Eve, the night I referenced in The "First" Post back on June 1. And once June 18th came around, I began keto and pretty much stayed on it when I wasn't flirting with a semi-starvation approach with the only exception being that ONE Sonic mixup of the LOADED WITH SUGAR sugar-free bomb!

Later, on November 23 the BIGGEST thing from 2020 for me came online: I became carnivore while also abandoning all those sugar-free crutches! I went from hitting a wall for 3 weeks to instant weightloss, all thanks to Kelly Hogan's YouTube channel. While I won't know exactly where I am on the scale until January 14th's weigh-in, I am confidant The 17th Expedition will crush the prior three Expeditions because of this pivotal move. Who knows, perhaps it'll beat out June-July's The 13th Expedition? At any rate, since June 18, I've lost somewhere around 70 lbs / 31 KG.

I've put myself in a good position for a strong showing in 2021. Usually this time of year is all about playing catchup; I'm already in rhythm.

Site News

Yes, I'm back on GitHub. While I like the extended functionality of Wordpress, my website was under attack from Ukraine for 3 minutes this morning (263 methods) as I was finishing up my workout. I don't mind the bots from Singapore, Prague, Russia, and France that stop by briefly to let me know they're malicious—I wave back—but Ukraine has GOT to SIMMA DOWN!

It's really hard to feel secure with Wordpress. As it is, I didn't trust my installation for I was running two abandoned plugins. AND since I already had my setup on GitHub ready to roll, after a few DNS changes, it was a seamless transition.

And honestly, for a site like this, I really don't need dynamic capability.
