Mutant Diet Phase 5 Finale

Earth 18 is a world stuck in the 19th century. Like my diet. Next week we go to Toronto. Mutant Diet Phase 5 Finale In the finale of a phase I guess I’m not supposed to tell you I gained weight, lost my temper, came quite close to putting my fist through a wall and generally swore enough to make members of the British Special Air Services blush. The level of violent feeling was fueled…

Mutant Diet Phase 5 Day 30

Earth 13 a world where it’s entirely supernatural. Even Superman. Kenora is near Lake-of-the-Woods Ontario, which is magical. Mutant Diet Phase 5 Day 30 Last day of Phase 5. I see the trainer and weigh in. Tomorrow I’ll reveal the results and plans for Q1 2018. I’ve had a lot of people in this journey tell me that diet is a bad word. (Besides, is it a noun, verb or pejorative term?) They want me…

Mutant Diet Phase 5 Day 28

Earth 11 is a world where the world is matriarchal in nature and the major superheroes are women. If I were in Ontario, I’d go to a beach near Picton for hangover recovery. Mutant Diet Phase 5 Day 28 I am an idiot. Here I am minding my own business at the company party this past Friday. And then unexpectedly I, and a fair few others, are being told the place is closing. I went…

Mutant Diet Phase 5 Day 26

Earth 9 has a woman Green Lantern that can raise the dead. Try Stratford Ontario for a change. Mutant Diet Phase 5 Day 26 I’m very happy to report that donuts have entered the dietary equation. Well, this is a planned cheat day which started around 3 PM yesterday. With concerts that have all my family members in them plus work social events, the decay of the diet/fitness process is unsurprising. Let’s see if I…

Mutant Diet Phase 5 Day 25

Earth 8 is a world that DC used to create a parallel Avengers universe. Do you see it? Niagara-on-the-Lake came to mind today. Mutant Diet Phase 5 Day 25 Today I’m going to talk about someone else’s journey as an illustration of the peculiar nature of third party perceptions of other’s appearance. There’s a fellow who works where I work but in a different office. I will call him Quintus. I see him once or…

Mutant Diet Phase 5 Day 24

I was looking for Earth 7, which apparently is a wasteland and I found this spooky image. Let’s go to Gravenhurst and hide from the news. Mutant Diet Phase 5 Day 24 OK. Today’s not going anywhere near according to plan. I did not plan for the shower head to break and spray water pretty much everywhere except on me. I could not find my building pass. I did not expect things to be going…

Mutant Diet Phase 5 Day 23

The heroes of Earth 6. I never heard of them either. The data is clean for Collingwood. Mutant Diet Phase 5 Day 23 I believe that dogs are bigger than cats. That’s about all I know today. From a diet/fitness perspective I know that coffee helps my short term awareness better than tea. I also know I’m supposed to see the personal trainer today and I want to feel whipped like a fondue at the…

Mutant Diet Phase 5 Day 21

These are heroes from DC’s Earth 4. I wonder how far I can go? People in Toronto think North Bay is north. Try Thunder Bay. Mutant Diet Phase 5 Day 21 It’s odd. Yesterday I broke the diet, but really only in the morning. By dinner I discovered I was starving and had a big meal of meat and vegetables. Much later I was hungry again but when I pondered what I would like to…
