30 days at 100%!

Date July 24, 2005

30 days at 100%!
Woo-hoo! I feel GOOD! I hope I keep on feeling good. It’s going to be a big letdown if I don’t.
Supper was a tomato sandwich. Two big leaves of lettuce, a couple of slices of tomato, and dulse flakes. I left off the onion. I am beginning to not enjoy the strong [...]

I was feeling pretty good until

Date July 23, 2005

I was feeling pretty good until I put on the top and pants that I had on in the picture on May 22. I’d set up my camera on the tripod and took some “eight second looks”. I may never be seen in public again. I can put on a kaftan and skulk into Wal*Mart [...]

I didn’t have time to Body Flex

Date July 22, 2005

I didn’t have time to Body Flex this morning. I figure that this old bod needs some time to recover, anyway. Most recommendations are for three times a week, and this is the first day I’ve missed in more than that.
I’ve recorded everything I can think of on fitday and I went over my goal [...]

Today is 28 days 100% raw uncooked

Date July 21, 2005

Today is 28 days 100% raw uncooked no heat applied!
I’ve felt incredibly good today. I think that making sure I got enough to eat yesterday had something to do with it. I’ve missed 1200 calories today by a little bit but after I’d remembered some more yesterday, I ended up with more than 1200. I [...]

I didn’t eat anything this morning

Date July 20, 2005

I didn’t eat anything this morning before I went to work, in preparation for my lab work. My glucose was a little high–111. The top of the reference range is 105. Cholesterol was 151 (top is 200), triglycerides 69 (top is 165), VLDL (very low density lipoprotein) 13.8 (top is 47), coronary risk 34.6 which [...]

Another day, another dollar

Date July 20, 2005

Another day, another dollar as my mother would have said. I went by her grave this afternoon and the caladiums were blowing in the breeze and enjoying the rain. They’ve had lots of that lately. I hadn’t realized that they bloom but there were several jack in the pulpit-type blossoms. Since the rain was coming [...]

What a day today has been!

Date July 19, 2005

What a day today has been! I had one registrar on vacation and one in orientation. Then, the Blue Cross auditor was there and I had to get some things for her, last minute. It was a busy busy day and I didn’t get a whole lot of my own work done. PLUS, when I [...]

Day After Tomorrow isn’t so far-fetched

Date July 18, 2005

It’s sorta late but I got into watching a movie that one of the girls at work loaned me for the weekend. It was “Day After Tomorrow” and it isn’t so farfetched. As a matter of fact, it hits too close home with all the hurricanes that are hitting so early in the season.
I ate [...]

Just call me James Brown.

Date July 17, 2005

Just call me James Brown. I feel good! Budda budda budda buh!
Supper yesterday was watermelon (it’s better than the others I’ve bought this year) and a smoothie of bananas, half a pear, papaya, and blueberries. The papaya didn’t blend up really well so it wasn’t hard to swallow it slowly since I had to [...]

I woke, bright-eyed and bushy-tailed

Date July 16, 2005

I woke, bright-eyed and bushy-tailed, this morning before 5. My mind said this was a day to be able to stay in bed a little longer but my body said to get up so I did.
Since I had all the time in the world, I did my BodyFlex and took a turn on the Nordic [...]
