Weight update: progress!

Well, I'm not quite at a monthly check-in here, but progress is being made :p

Week 1 - 220.6lbs
Week 2 - 221.6lbs (+1 lb)
Week 3 - 216 lbs (-5.6 lbs)
Week 4 - 216.6 lbs (+.6 lbs)
Week 5 - 214.8 lbs (-5.8 lbs)
Week 6 - 215.6 lbs (+.8 lbs)
--missed a week
Week 7 - 216.8 lbs (+1.2 lbs)
Week 8 - 215.8 lbs (-1 lb)
Week 9 - 216 lbs (+.2 lbs)
---missed a week
Week 10 - 216.6 lbs (-.4 lbs)
Week 11 - 214.2 lbs (-1.4lbs)
Week 12 - 217 lbs (+2.8lbs)
Week 13 - 214.2 lbs (-2.8lbs)
Week 14 - 210.4 lbs (-3.8 lbs)

My 5% weight loss goal with Weight Watchers is 11lbs (209.6 lbs), so I'm aaaalmost there. After that my 10% goal is 22 lbs or 198.6 lbs. Right now I'm not sure what my ultimate weight goal should be. Certainly, getting under 200 lbs (first time in 5 years) would be good and what the doctor ordered as a minimum, so that'd be good. According to the CDC's BMI calculator thingie (and I know - BMI doesn't take into account bone structure or muscle-mass) a healthy weight range would be 123 to 166 lbs.

For the time being, I think getting under 180 lbs would be good. If I can keep losing about .5lbs a week (which is less than I've been losing, but still) I can probably get to that weight in over a year. I'm curious to see what I'll be like this time next year!

[STO] PVP as War, PVP as Sport.

In the middle of last year, I read a little on a thread about "Combat as Sport versus Combat as War." It was referencing a very long opinion post for Dungeons & Dragons 5th Edition (currently in development). Intriguing as it was, though, is was concerning a tabletop role-playing game. Could it offer anything worth noting about Star Trek Online's PVP? I think so.

[STO] Dilithium Tracker 5/9/13

Won't be long until The Legacy of Romulus is upon us. Moreover, Star Trek: Into Darkness is staring down upon us. All in all, I'd say its great month for Star Trek fans. In the meantime, Star Trek Online is continuing on, the economy is still going along, and Neverwinter (now in open beta) is showing a brand new economy as it tries to find its legs.

[STO] Master Keys without spending a dime.

Cryptic/PWE just unveiled the latest lockbox for Star Trek Online: the Temporal Lock Box . Its time-travel themed, with all sorts of neat ships, consoles, etc., both to be won on random chance and via Lobi. You should really take a look - they're very cool looking . Now, given that Master Keys cost $1.25 each (well, less if you buy 10-packs), you might be hesitant to go after them. You might also be leery of the whole lockbox scheme. And, that's understandable. Goodness knows Pavlovian responses aren't limited to just dogs! So, how to play without paying...?
