This is a cool cover I never saw before. Just go to Niagara Falls and click on something will you?

Mutant Diet Phase 7 Day 21
Sunday. The Vancouver Sun Run is on and that makes for traffic hell until well into the afternoon. Lucky for them it’s sunny, but I hope the runners are wearing an extra layer. 5° C.

Due to a supply problem, and the fact I was really hungry this morning, I took a Double Smoked Bacon sandwich at Starbucks. It has a bun so that’s a carbohydrate no-no on the Mutant Diet, but Starbucks had the calorie count online of 490.

Yesterday was more or less back on track after the Friday evening blow out.

The challenge here is the intensity of the correction phase. The Diet Fix book talks about enjoyment but enjoying a weight loss regime is as sensible to me as enjoying a forensic tax audit or un-anaesthetized dental surgery.

The weight correction phase reminds me of physical training where you need to strain the muscle the right amount to cause growth without causing injury.

You want to strangle the calorie and refined carb flow to as low an extent without

  • inducing a starvation response in your metabolism or,
  • ending up being arrested in a grocery store’s baked goods section after a psychotic break.

I never did like the look of tightropes.
