I found this cool Wolverine/Captain America image. Technically Logan was around during WWII. It’s time to check in on St. John’s NL. Mutant Diet Phase 10a Day 10 Good lord that was ridiculous. Yesterday I had the sore mid-back muscles. I went to the gym with the intent to do legs. But some of the leg stuff requires I hold my back in place. By the time I returned to work, I was a mess.…
I needed a classic Spider-man today. Apparently the municipality of Saanich has a greater population than the City of Victoria. Mutant Diet Phase 10a Day 9Monday was more of a 2500 calorie day than 2000, but it was better than last week by far. We shall see what kind of focus I can muster today. I went to bed last night surprisingly ache-free, but then in the middle of the night the mid-back was complaining.…
From Amazing Spider-man 94. From the look of her, isn’t Aunt May really more of a Great Aunt? In Calgary, 6 horses dead in chuck wagon races. Yikes. Mutant Diet Phase 10a Day 8 I would look for a big reset button image if I had more time. The failing mental focus and the access to tempting food products derailed me. I still see the personal trainer today and weigh-in. Sigh. However, it has not…
From Amazing Spider-man 97. A friend of mine had breakfast in Kamloops. Mutant Diet Phase 10a Day 7 The diet went to hell Friday night and I’ve not recovered. The whole thing is on me, of course, but if I don’t attribute weakness to specific influences, I can’t plan to adapt to them. So, today I blame mental and physical fatigue. But what to do about it? Obviously, duh, rest. But as many of you…
Green Arrow is preparing for a final season on TV. I haven’t done a shout out to BC’s Sunshine Coast in a while. Mutant Diet Phase 10a Day 5 The calorie count seems a bit high in my estimates, but when free food with refined carbs are tossed around I tend to aim high on the calorie count. The massage therapist appointment helped the back muscles but really made me loopy. For example, the chocolate…
I needed some old fashioned comic book images. Did you see my piece on Vancouver Harbour tours? Mutant Diet Phase 10a Day 4I went to the massage therapist as my mid back was super tight. Holy crap that was intense. I was seeing tweety-birds when I got off the bench. It seems that my chest is curling forward and thus putting strain on the muscles connected to the spine. I have to imagine there’s a…
This is a fake Spider-man getting whumped by Jessica Jones. Manitoba’s Falcon Lake UFO Mystery turns 50. Mutant Diet Phase 10a Day 3Day 2 went really well until we went out for dinner with an out-of-town guest. However, my body this morning is not feeling too far off track because I jumped straight back into the process — and my bicycle. I have a chance to be totally on the mark for today. Tomorrow has…
All the speculation on the last Spider-man movie had me wondering about other female characters. It took a bit to find a Black Cat image that wasn’t hyper-sexy. A man in Nova Scotia is very fond of his truck. Mutant Diet Phase 10a Day 2Good news I did a nearly textbook Day 1. I have to be super careful about tight spots. Mid back, calf, the gout joint and a couple more. I tried to…
I found this cool X-Men image. I never did get to see that last movie. A beautiful day in Vancouver today. Mutant Diet Phase 10a Day 1 I’m calling this Phase 10a because it’s only 26 days until family vacation where I don’t intend to do much diet/fitness. I hope to be active, but not actively trying to push myself to lose weight or gain strength. I read somewhere online that no one wants to…
This is a rare blog entry not relating to diet and fitness. I had a light bulb go off on my ongoing discussion with the Vancouver School Board regarding the lack of music in the schools. Here’s what I wrote on July 1. Hi Trustees and Superintendent, Happy Canada Day! Due to the holiday I finally managed to get to some of my to do list! I’ve been having a lot of trouble with the…
