@akagami_shanks Did you decide what RMR your gonna put on it/ if any? I just ordered my P-10 and debating if I want to run an optic on it. Comes with supressor height sights so I'll at least be good there with my can on it until I decide what I wanna do.
I have an amazon bought optic on it, it was still like $150, but I don't plan on shooting every day so it does the job fine for me. AT3 tactical

I passed the conceal carry training. All 4 of my references submitted the questionnaire yesterday, i paid $76 to the state, and have to pay another $150 to my local PD

not too shabby though, many people take months of shooting to get comfortable and on my 4th time shooting i pass with flying colors, only missed one shot that was just a little bit to the right of the head, otherwise i was a deadshot and landed shots. Head, neck, chest area, spots that would pretty much immediately down an attacker

It's OK. IMO has gone a little too hard on the "wait a few days" type of quests, splitting strider into thief/archer kinda sucks especially with no advanced versions of either, some minor design choices that make me think "man I miss X from DD1..."
Not bad so far but not perfect.

cali has the most strict laws.

got a flashlight/laser combo, thought it wouldn't fit my gun so was set to return it, then i saw a YT vid that made me wanna try something and now i have installed it. Couldn't get the pin to come out for the magazine catch so i gave up on making the gun left handed friendly, and i had to buy a new mounting plate because the sight i bought uses a different style plate and my gun only came with a No 2. plate. Ugh. Gonna zero it at the range tuesday with my girlfriend and i'll have my home defense gun all set up

Would you ever want like an ar 15 or rsomething similar, like a long gun? Is there like a limit to how much you would spend on a gun, like a grand
would I get a long gun? Sure, but I'm not an enthusiast so I wouldn't drop like $2000 on a gun. My limit would prob be like $800. I have no real purpose for a rifle besides shooting it at the range, at that point I might as well just rent it lol

did you get a pretty good price for you glock that you bought, like below avg.? Are glocks your favorite gun brand?
from what the community said, I was slightly overcharged.

I bought it because it was the brand I was most comfortable with as when I went to the range 3 times before deciding to buy a gun I used a Glock all 3 times. So I'm immediately familiar with the gun. If I do buy another one I'll get a Springfield hellcat or something. slightly unlikely I'll buy another gun but you never know

so you don't plan on getting a concealed...permit.....iirc some states are like much more strict to get one than other states, like night and day.
Not at the moment, it's pretty expensive and a lengthy process. Also has a lot of restrictions that are currently being challenged in a federal appeals court so I'm kinda waiting and seeing what happens with that, I'm perfectly fine with not using it though, NJ has pretty low gun crime rates and I don't live in the hood anymore. Better safe than sorry though in the odd chance I actually do need to use it one day. All it takes is one incident.

GranTurismo posted...
so used guns are almost always pretty solid guns right? yeah i guess way better than buying a used watch. Still probably as good as new. Not sure if you would save a ton though.
Well they ARE used for a reason. I imagine most are fine though but you don't really get to break it in yourself and it might have more wear and tear than you think. I'm no expert though and probably never will be. I would have saved almost $300.

how much was this, from an online gun dealer...etc..., isn't online usually cheaper but much more of a hassle? Would you ever buy a used glock?
$709. In store in Howell NJ, I was hoping to buy a used one for cheaper that I saw they had on their website but they didn't end up having it. It's better to buy in person IMO, online in NJ charges too many fees and many dealers rather not deal with the hassle of making stuff NJ-compliant.

It's already instant, and with no background check if you're a criminal or have criminal intent, it's called stealing or buying it illegally.

I assumed the gun range would provide the ammo. Or at least the indoor ones. I don't know anything about it though.
Many ranges are bring your own ammo. The ones that do sell ammo tend to have it way overpriced. I got 5 boxes of 50 rounds each for a little over $100. At RTSP each box would be $29.99, and it would cost me over $150. Sure it's cheaper online but I was already there, so might as well.

I mean, if someone is threatening your safety and youre legally allowed to carry just aim for non vitals. People can shrug off pepper spray and tasers.
Can't legally carry until I take a $200 instruction/use of force course and pay another $200(soon to be $400) to the state, and then pay those fees again every 2 years lol.

I'm a pretty big guy but if the taser and pepper spray don't deter someone I guess I'll have to get down and dirty... I don't like fighting but if I have to I will.

Then I found she moved back down to England.

I suspected after she dumped me it was because she'd secretly been with the other guy behind my back.

a little tough love to myself but if it motivates anyone else, kudos.

You are overweight, it is not cool, or something to celebrate. Every pound you lose is a pound that you shouldn't have had in the first place, because you were enjoying yourself too much. The current you is what happens when you don't take care of your body and should serve as a reminder of what you could be if you ever forget that. Never stop working until you're happy with the you you are. The seats aren't too small on airplanes/amusement parks and there's nothing wrong with the weight limits on many activities, you're just too big because you were lazy and negligent and even when you saw a problem you didn't rectify it.

So do better, be better. Work harder than anyone so you can enjoy life, while you're still young or very soon you will be living a pathetic life, lonely and taking medication to combat your many weight related illnesses and injuries, to die a early death at the hands of a heart attack. Enjoy the fact that each day you wake up you are better and more healthier than the day before, never give up or lose sight of your goal. Everything in this world will be better when you return to the realm of the healthy.

Thanks for chiming in! So, after giving it some thought, I've come to a realization I might be experiencing this issue because I've recently started taking steroids. No, not the Mark McGwire kind that goes in your butt, but some medication the doctor prescribed for my mobility issues. It seems like I'm retaining fluids like crazy and not peeing them out. On the bright side, my pants are falling off because I'm shedding weight, so even with the scale saying that I know I am the right direction. I'm looking fabulous and feeling... well, let's just say not exactly fine. I keep telling myself I'm feeling fine, but truth be told, it's bothering me. Here's hoping I can start making some serious gains, maybe that can be a plus since I have lose so much good mass while losing weight.
here's what i do

abandon the scale, unless you spent thousands of dollars on it its unreliable, don't let it dictate your actions or progress. If people can notice your weight loss you're doing the right thing. You say you notice your clothes fitting better, thats a guarantee of weight loss right there.

Hell, my scale weighs me differently depending on where i'm standing in the house. In some spots it says I've gained almost 12 pounds since my last inbody scan 2 weeks ago(bullshit) and in other spots it says i've stayed the same, lost 2 pounds, or lost 14 pounds since then. Digital scale too.

I'm strictly following CICO, factually speaking there is no way my body composition is exactly the same as it was 2 or 3 weeks ago, or even last week given the massive deficits i have been putting up.

One good thing i read that keeps me on track that might help you is "Nobody would care if they said you could be 500 pounds and still have your ideal body"

Okay I am back at 197 on my Wii scale. I no when in got the lower number it could have just been a glitch or something. Because today it said since last week. I have gained 6 pounds. And while I am not great at eye balling weight gain and lost. I know that didn't happen. I also know that I could have gone up since I wasn't moving around at all last week. But again I know I did not gain all of that. So I am going to keep pushing. I know when I go to the doctor I will be out of the 100 club l when I have to weigh in with more then just shorts. But I am ready for that. I know all ready it is going to be hard. But in bracing myself. Anywho...inam thinking about getting some hooters. I am not giving up or giving in
But I had some the other day and Damn.
weight fluctuates a lot, theres no way people put on 6 pounds of true fat in a week or two unless they absolutely go bonkers and eat pure junk food all day every day. Sometimes we just retain a lot of water due to high sodium diets

Rest is as important as being in the gym. Remember that, your body needs to rest to build . As for your knees, you can try knee sleeves. I have some from Amazon for like 7 or 9 dollars something like that. And they work really well. They can go up to the 50s and more. But my little cheap ones have helped my knees on leg day.
yeah i didn't really feel like i needed to rest because i feel fine each day. my left knee is just bad and i need to strengthen it. I was gonna get up and get dressed to do classes today but my knee felt funny so i'm not gonna chance it ill just stay in this weekend.

on that note, i think my weight is stuck again lol scales are giving funny readings, i know they're inaccurate but in some cases it says i've gained weight. I won't live and die by the scale though i'll just continue working out and eating a lot less and eventually my body will have to give up and drop the weight

it's honestly astonishing how much weight loss just...varies. Everyone and their mom has a different opinion on weight loss and theres always studies and broscience and people debunking stuff. Just goes to show how complex the body is that theres no 100% guaranteed advice

on a side note. i'm finally getting into the groove of hitting the gym every day. I feel energized when i walk in and get changed, i sweat more, i push myself, i'm slimming down, people are noticing the difference, i'm eating a lot less too, like struggling to hit my BMR calories less. Weird feeling though to technically be more physically active than the average joe given my size lol. Felt a bit of a strain on my knees today though doing the leg press, I wanna do some free group classes tomorrow but i think I may need to just rest this weekend instead since i've been basically 5 days in a row and give my body time to heal

yeah ngl.... if i knew when i'd die i'd be far more likely to go big and press for more years. like if i live to 90 or something, i'd easily go for like 10 years worth of money.

so ill say 2-3 years for now. working on getting a lot healthier while i'm still young so i won't die of some health complication unless i get cancer or something. but $375k straight up is a life changing amount of money for me. I'd be able to pay all my bills off, repair my credit, put a down payment on a house, and live happily until I die. I'd take it a step further and get another $125k lol. Then I can start working on generational wealth and getting my mom taken care of

as to the dieting, in my case i still eat mostly the same foods i did pre-diet, but i'm a lot more careful of how much i'm eating. I set myftinesspal to about 10 pounds below my current weight, with aggressive 2 pounds per week loss, and i try to still be in a deficit below that number it gives me per day. It's not too hard given my size i can still comfortably eat 1500+ calories a day of pure food and i'm not even that hungry if i eat high in protein food. Yesterday i basically survived all day off a half rack of ribs and a few fries i had at 5am. wasn't even really hungry when i got home at 8pm but i ate because i was in a 1300+ calorie deficit below my daily goal for the day and i already did over an hour of exercise

I'm gonna get super serious about my dieting and exercising now. It's been a little over a month and i didn't lose as much as I hoped, I guess because i've been hanging out with my girlfriend and eating poorly some days, but I told her i can't be eating fast food like that anymore
