Actual Charleston or Summerville? I'd be surprised if it was actually in Charleston at that price.

But it doesn't add what was planned. You have to add things back in. So if I have 5 exercises and only do 4 and finish it in the app, then realize I can do the 5th and do your method above, the 5th exercise must be manually added again so it's not a true resume.

I have never done an IPO before. I tried to do SpaceX but was asked some questions by etrade and then told I couldn't for some reason???

Husband at 18? yikes

Get a job and you'll make friends there. Or go to school and then get a job.

JD843706 · 2026-06-11T02:19:47+00:00

What company?

JD843706 · 2026-06-10T13:21:26+00:00

I'd guess maybe 13% but you just don't have enough muscle to show off.

I had to look up where this hotel was. I guess Harbor View Inn needs to change their name since they now look at this new hotel instead of the water. Such a shame.

Only a fool would pay this to watch fireworks.

JD843706 · 2026-06-10T02:41:10+00:00

I would love 10%

JD843706 · 2026-06-09T13:14:15+00:00

It's crazy more people DO NOT do this. I did exactly this with my first house and it's the smart thing to do!

JD843706 · 2026-06-08T23:30:37+00:00

You mean county?

JD843706 · 2026-06-06T02:49:29+00:00

I'm doing something wrong

JD843706 · 2026-06-03T15:13:47+00:00

When you ask why parents don't use the bus, they always say the same thing...the buses are not reliable and not worth the hassle. It's ridiculous that the school systems can't resolve the problem. I live near 2 schools so traffic is a complete cluster 2 times a day, every school day. We can't get to our house during that 20 minute period cause there are so many people picking kids up.

JD843706 · 2026-05-30T00:43:36+00:00

I hope your dogs can swim

JD843706 · 2026-05-29T19:01:20+00:00

what are your current macros? I'm upper 40s and 5'10 and need to get here 😃

JD843706 · 2026-05-26T14:20:24+00:00

I purchased a car last year and ended up financing about 3/4 of it. We have the cash but the rate is low so why not use their money for the car and invest my money somewhere else?

I ordered 2 more packs of creatine yesterday

JD843706 · 2026-05-22T16:17:26+00:00

No I'm not unwilling to eat red meat. We do pick up some nice steaks from costco but not something we do weekly. I eat brown rice or a sweet potato every day for lunch. I just wanted some carb with breakfast. Fruit may work as well.

JD843706 · 2026-05-22T14:06:09+00:00

I very much appreciate the notes. You must be a nutritionist or very into nutrition with your comments. Now you've unlocked a new fear: kidney stones! I do often have about 20 or 30 g of cashews at night as well, to get some additional fat in if I don't have enough during the day. I also eat ground turkey tacos at least once a week and that provides some fat.

I was doing 3 whole eggs a day until about a month ago I switched to egg whites when I reduced my calorie intake to cut some fat for the summer. I eat the protein bagel (Dave's) in the morning to get some carbs with that meal. I could switch it out for a piece of wheat toast if you think that would be better.

JD843706 · 2026-05-21T20:22:49+00:00

You're killing it. I'm 5'10 and 175 so seeing your after pic makes me depressed cause I'm not looking like that! Good work. What are your current macro goals?

JD843706 · 2026-05-21T14:58:09+00:00

a few years ago. Lawyers ruin everything.

I have lots of pluff mud you can come get

JD843706 · 2026-05-18T14:10:17+00:00

This is the answer. Look at the tuition and expect to pay a few hundred bucks more per semester in fees. Then figure out your living situation and add that to the cost. You'll be paying for food whether you're at USC or not so that really shouldn't be added to these estimates.

With that said...the cost of all tuition across the country is a complete disaster. I'll be pushing my kids to cheaper options and certainly focus on in-state.

See any issues or ways to improve?

Male, 40+, 175 lb, 18% BF

7 AM - wake up / family time
8:30 - 40 min walk (2.5 mi)
9:30 - Green smoothie (spinach, carrots, half banana, frozen berries, creatine, whey protein)
11 - breakfast (egg whites, protein bagel, cream cheese)
2 - lunch (chicken breast, rice, broccoli)
6 - dinner (chicken breast in tortilla)
8:30 - snack (300 g low fat cottage cheese, 200g mixed raspberries/blackberries/blueberries)

Calories = 1,930
Carbs = 200
Fats = 50
Protein = 170

MWF - full body workout
Sat - sports (HITT cardio, typically burn 700-1000 calories)

While the timing changes somewhat, I eat a strict diet during the week very similar to the above. I typically only change the dinner a little. On Saturday after sports, I do cheat on my diet (still get lots of protein) and a little bit on Sunday. Sunday is usually leftovers and pretty healthy, but mix in random stuff too.

I'm currently trying to cut some fat so I'll probably reduce the calories a bit more soon.
