This Wolverine image symbolizes the challenge. Thoughts going to Halifax after the hurricane. Mutant Diet Phase 11 Day 1 I am committed to 82 days for Phase 11, which takes me to November 29. Ugh.

Deadlift 250 pounds and weigh 250 pounds. I…

Mutant Diet Phase 10b Day 16 Medical professionals have been consulted. More sleep is needed. The sleep deprivation and consequential fatigue explain much. A new magic pill is heading my way. My doctor said I was easy to work with because I was on top of everything. My wife pointed out that…
Werewolf by Night was announced by Marvel. A new listing for Winlaw, BC. Mutant Diet Phase 10b Day 15Yesterday was a cheat day. You can tell how much you enjoy a cheat day by how much the taste of what you are eating resonates. However, it’s back to super strict until Wednesday when I weigh in for the last time on Phase 10b. I will take a mini break and restart September 9 with Phase…
Winter Soldier was a significant upgrade to a teenaged sidekick. They say PEI is a hot real estate market. Mutant Diet Phase 10b Day 14 Yesterday, we moved the big kid to UBC Residence.

I watched Avengers Endgame on Blu-ray. Let’s go to Saskatchewan. Mutant Diet Phase 10b Day 10 Despite my shocking indiscretions with chocolate my calorie burn is still 1670 more than intake.
