Big team shots are fun. Taber Alberta picked up a fresh hotel listing yesterday. Mutant Diet Phase 3 Day 116 How do you turn bad feelings, which indicate progress, into a positive attitude? I am developing a theory that most barbarism is the result of glucose deprivation. The worse I feel during each ultra low sugar/carb run, the more I notice delardification. But I feel bad. Angry. Sad. The smell of cigarette smoke is 10…
I love finding these old covers. Did you know Lillooet and Lytton, BC recorded a temperature of 44.4° C in July 1941? Mutant Diet Phase 3 Day 115 Don’t you hate it when you make an effort to go to bed earlier, but you don’t feel like you slept well? At the trainer yesterday, it was a weigh-in. My weight was the same, but the percent body fat dropped 3.7% from the previous week, and…
The Justice League infighting. Did you know there’s a Woodstock Ontario and a Woodstock New Brunswick? Mutant Diet Phase 3 Day 114 My quads, which are fine now, were put into perspective by finding out that a friend broke his elbow in an accident involving shrubbery and another friend’s father is undergoing open heart surgery today. Holy crap. Maybe that’s why I had a little more energy this morning on the bicycle. Today is a…
The Justice League of America. Here’s how to find all the Biking articles on my BC travel site. Mutant Diet Phase 3 Day 113 It’s Monday. Do you know where your abs are? I had an extra 1.5 km on my morning ride. Long story as to why, but I landed downtown much warmer than planned. The day following the cheat day was no 100% but I could tell the chemistry was going back to…
The Justice League from the 1990s. New travel article! Crescent Beach, Surrey BC. Mutant Diet Phase 3 Day 112 What a cheat day! Ice Cream, waffles, raspberries, steak, beer, Doritos. Yum. However, my digestive system said, “are you a complete f__king idiot?” And, once again, a quick reaction from my system. This makes today’s process of getting back on the ultra low sugar/carb horse easier. However, I have only about 8 hours before the symptoms…
I was looking for a Justice League image and found the Thing vs The Hulk. The next travel articles will be about a hidden corner of Surrey BC. Mutant Diet Phase 3 Day 110 My quads are like hunks of tissue hanging off a stick. I went for a run yesterday with a friend – one minute running, one minute walking – for about 20 minutes. It went well except my quads did not react…
Another old Justice League cover. It’s challenging not to think about chocolate. Mutant Diet Phase 3 Day 109 Yes, there are limits. I hit one at 10 PM last night when I had to go to bed. One of the frustrating aspects of this process is I eat a satisfying meal of meat and vegetables and then, about an hour later, the stomach says, “OK. Where’s the rest of it?” The energy variances are annoying…
Another Justice League / Justice Society cover. It’s hard not to think about Williams Lake. Mutant Diet Phase 3 Day 108 I am now wondering what to think the day after a long awaited movement on the scale. We know the scale isn’t everything, but if you walk into a cardiologist’s office, and you have a blood pressure that’s not perfect, they’re going to ask you to lose weight as a first comment. I am…
Another Justice League cover from the old days. New Hornby Island article written by friends! Mutant Diet Phase 3 Day 107 Ouch. It was an 8 AM personal trainer session so that, ironically, I could attend a team lunch. My last personal trainer session was June 27, which was three weeks ago. During that time I’ve been doing this ultra-low carb process with a cheat day either on the 5th or 6th day of the…
Retro Justice League from a comic that cost 12¢. New travel article! I went cycling on my cheat day. An Easy Vancouver Bike Ride Mutant Diet Phase 3 Day 106 Monday. Blah. Yesterday was supposed to be a non-cheat day and it was, mostly, with the exception of sushi for dinner. There was a fair bit of temptation but I dodged it. This is notable in that normally I would have said, “bugger it; I’ll…
