Wonder Woman clobbers Green Lantern. I haven’t been to Campbell River in years. Mutant Diet Phase 8 Day 46 Argh. Food is annoying. I picked up my daughter from a choir practice and she hadn’t eaten. She wanted pizza. So we stopped at a place that sold us a medium for the price of a small and of course I sit in a car with fresh pizza. I think I’d have more self-control were Salma…
Wonder Woman and Cheetah, who’ll be the bad guy in the movie. Maybe the Toronto Zoo? Mutant Diet Phase 8 Day 45 OK, so, that’s basically another two days hosed due to my weak will and fatigue. The fitness is fine; there’s lots of muscle building, but damn. I get too tired and I eat badly. I skipped cycling today because I’m almost a month with this cold and I have to find some rest…
I officially declare it Wonder Woman Week. Mutant Diet Phase 8 Day 44 It’s time for me to lose my mind. Oops. I just thought I lost it. Wait, it’s over there in a crumpled bag. I tried very hard to get to sleep early and I’m not sure how well it went. The nightmare of not being able to find a bathroom woke me up and then after going to the bathroom, I realized…
Cool Avengers group shot. I wonder what they are thinking in Chilliwack. Mutant Diet Phase 8 Day 43 It’s time to reflect on why I let the weekend slide. I missed two days of documenting and tried to stay on track, but … no. So, what’s the deal? I did yoga and a bit of strength training on Saturday. Sunday was a rest day due to many commitments. But I ate. I am tired. Grumpy.…
From the #1 New Avengers issue. Today is civic voting day in Vancouver and other parts of BC. Mutant Diet Phase 8 Day 41 I almost didn’t complete this entry or yesterday’s diet sheet. I didn’t tally it up because the count was fucked up and would have been inaccurate. But I went to the gym yesterday and upgraded my kettlebell burpees to red (36 kg / 79 lbs). This means is did a burpee…
Superheroes have to eat too you know. I’d like to catch a west coast sunset in Victoria today. Mutant Diet Phase 8 Day 40 When I saw how difficult it was for others in my family just to chart their food, it made me realize that what I’m doing documentation-wise is kind of abnormal in a good way. Mind you, I don’t think I’m eating better. Yesterday was a mess, but fatigue and time demands…
Which ones are the Skrull imposters? Richmond BC is having an election this week too. Mutant Diet Phase 8 Day 39 It occurred to me this morning that it takes 3 full days to shake off the negative psychological effects of weighing in and looking at the numbers. I’m about half way through this. It’s best not to speak of it. Today is Thursday. I look forward to seeing what the gym holds for homework.
I thought this New Avengers image looked cool. I need to catch a sunset from Lighthouse Park in West Vancouver to relieve stress. Mutant Diet Phase 8 Day 38 The upshot of reviewing all my recent measurements is that since Sept 11, when I started Phase 8, I have lost an inch in the waist and the chest but only .2 pounds. Let’s be frank, I handled it well, but all the voices from childhood…
More New Avengers. I bet it’s quieter in Cottage Country right now. Mutant Diet Phase 8 Day 37 I weigh in and measure today. I’m not sure what results I’m going to publish as I doubt it will be notable. What I’m trying to do is connect how I feel about my workouts and body and connect them – without judgement – to the numbers. Considering I’m trying to bulk up in muscle, it will…
New Avengers fighting some fake Avengers. Rachel Notely mentioned Salt Spring Island on the weekend. Mutant Diet Phase 8 Day 36 Well. I can say that if you want to clear gunk out of your body due to a cold, try riding over the Burrard Street Bridge in 8° weather. The cold is still gripping me but I’m not in the mood. I have a weigh-in tomorrow and I need to get a grip on…
