More Birds of Prey although one is a bat and another a ninja. Very sunny in Vancouver today. Mutant Diet Phase 8 Day 69 I must be on a better dietary track. I was freaking out last night because I had an early light dinner and then when I got back from shopping (always eat before shopping) I was ravenous. I ate quinoa soup and small batch of nachos to stop me from wanting to…
I always liked the big team pictures. I guy using my last name is making me worried for Ontario. Mutant Diet Phase 8 Day 68 As of today, I have three days in a row with no mess ups. I did have Chinese food in the mall at dinner. I had meat and veggies and skipped the rice or noodles. With the sauces and stuff, I’m sure there was bad stuff in the meal. However,…
It would be OK if you thought I liked the way the Birds of Prey characters were drawn. New Brunswick sure had a flip-flop election. Mutant Diet Phase 8 Day 67 I can declare yesterday a rare success in diet. I burned 1500 more calories than I ate and the food was on track. I am a little closer to my 2-week chocolate and sweets prohibition. But chemically I feel weird. The body seems to…
Birds of Prey, which has a batgirl in it. Hmm. Anyway, let’s try Burns Lake BC. Mutant Diet Phase 8 Day 66 Not great but better. I finally filled in a diet chart and I clearly can’t eat chocolate almonds anymore. 5.5 calories per gram. Ouch. The weights went up in half my exercises. My chiropractor likes the new muscles because, somehow, it makes adjustments easier. My right hip and mid-back were out of whack.…
In honour of Stan Lee, who passed away at 95, here are three of his famous characters. Let’s hide on Denman Island. Mutant Diet Phase 8 Day 65 I think I might be serious about this now. I have supplies. I can’t sabotage this anymore. But the trick is not to invoke the rebellious child response. I have to go back to a strict diet without becoming pissed off about it. Let’s do this. I…
A team called Birds of Prey. I caught some of West Vancouver‘s Remembrance Day ceremony today. Mutant Diet Phase 8 Day 63 It seems funny to be worrying about a diet on Remembrance Day. The job today is to find my inner peace and to look forward to how I get a grip on myself. This does not explain why I lost my shit on a lady honking at me in a parking lot. The…
Batman and friends in the jungle. I updated the Vancouver page. Mutant Diet Phase 8 Day 62 Commence panicking. I have to bring this phase back onto the tracks. I took yesterday off and my wife and I hung out and escaped the children. It was really nice. We ate well at a fully vegan restaurant in Yaletown. (See link.) But it wasn’t on the strict track. There was alcohol. So now I face the…
More Earth 2 with a creepier Batman. I’m going to explore Yaletown in Vancouver tomorrow. Mutant Diet Phase 8 Day 60 Well, so far so bad. My efforts at yoga yesterday were greeted with the spectacular realization that my shoulders could not hold my arms in place for warrior 2, side angle stretch or triangle pose. They were still knackered from the personal trainer workout. The only thing, however, keeping me from giving up are…
The Justice Society is from Earth 2. Winnipeg. -6 and light snow. Mutant Diet Phase 8 Day 59 The cake was good yesterday. Today I saw the massage therapist who managed to make my hip feel like it was about a foot away from my body without actually working directly on it. My quads and IT band are screwy. I can’t wait until yoga later. I paid for the class in advance; I’m going. I…
More Earth 2. Let’s got to Toronto the home of carbon tax insanity. Mutant Diet Phase 8 Day 58 It’s taking time to recover from the frustration of the doctor’s visit. Yesterday I did 2/3 of the high intensity workout. I probably could have plugged through all of it, but today I see the trainer and I didn’t want to be healing up. I bought weight lifting gloves because the calluses on my hands are…
