Fantastic Four image in honour of my new arms. Someone go to Anguilla and let me know what it’s like. Mutant Diet Phase 2 Day 16 Today is a personal trainer and workout session and I’ll be publishing results tomorrow.

This image represents how I feel about clothes shopping. Vancouver decided to turn cold again. Barbados sounds good. Please go there for me. Mutant Diet Phase 2 Day 15 As I mentioned yesterday I was going to see what Park Royal had to offer in the way of shirts. So we went to 7, count ’em, seven stores and I tried on no shirts. Even if the styles were what I wanted, I say nothing…
I was searching for best dressed superhero and found Anne Hathaway’s Catwoman. For another kind of hot … Antigua Mutant Diet Phase 2 Day 14 Nothing makes you feel worse in a diet/fitness context than clothes shopping. It’s not only the frustration with sizing (that doesn’t make sense) but it’s also, if you are on a diet, you are never near the size you want to be. Anyone who knows me knows I don’t shop.…
This is a panel from an early Thor/Hulk fight. Next Thor movie will feature another battle. Every few years they talk about Turks and Caicos becoming a Canadian province. Probably that feeling comes to Ottawa every February. Mutant Diet Phase 2 Day 13 My eyebrows lost weight. I told my wife this and she laughed. It’s true. When I grab my eyebrows, they aren’t as fat. Sadly, the quick summary of my what I think…
I found this JLA/Avengers crossover image. So fun. I still want a warm escape. What about Martinique? Mutant Diet Phase 2 Day 12 They mysteries of measuring biological changes continues. My blood pressure last night was officially in the OK zone. During the day yesterday at the gym I had that lightheaded feeling that I associate with my BP dropping. There’s the other light headed feeling that is due to exertion. I know the difference.…
I found this cool Avengers team picture. I’m still fantasizing about a warm destination. Let’s try Belize. I visited there once. Mutant Diet Phase 2 Day 11 It’s day 11. A palindrome day. OK, so it’s official I’m taking BP meds until I’m more consistently able to mediate my way to a lower BP. I am blaming situational stress … oooh maybe like frigging dieting, an ailing parent, a mess at a volunteer job, 8…
I was looking for an X-Men picture and I found this cool Guardians of the Galaxy image instead. I checked and it’s not raining in Aruba right now. Mutant Diet Phase 2 Day 10 Let’s see if we can find some clarity. … . Nope. Too busy. It switched from Canadian Winter to Pacific Northwest Power Rain in a 48-hour period. The weather applies to a diet/fitness routine in that I’m walking less. Of course…
While looking for something else, I found this cool retro X-Men image. Although warmer today, I’d rather be rained on in the Cayman Islands. Mutant Diet Phase 2 Day 9 This is one of these days where the word gloomy would apply. I had that moment during a diet/fitness regime where you feel hopeless. The sheer size of the problem becomes clear and feeling daunted occurs. It may not help that relatives and friends of…
This is Medusa, an Inhuman. My son and I started a new series. I always wanted to visit Dominica, not to be confused with the Dominican Republic. Mutant Diet Phase 2 Day 8 I have the dumbest bet ever with my personal trainer that involves peeing on a stick and not losing weight. She thinks that if I stay in a state of ketosis by way of reducing carbs as much as possible, I will…
Supergirl and Flash from a comic book. I re-watched the crossover on TV last night. Sorry to mention it, but it’s 28° in the British Virgin Islands. Mutant Diet Phase 2 Day 7 Ow. Ow. Ow. Legs. Ow. I don’t think I mentioned yesterday that on Friday I did this exercise with my personal trainer that involved a Bulgarian bag.
