Spider-man and his offshoots give me the most comfort. Speaking of discomfort, hernia and all, I went horseback riding near Parksville.
Mutant Diet Phase 2 Day -2
In two days Phase 4 of the Mutant Diet starts which involves me preparing for October 6, the schedule date for my hernia repair. Somehow repair sounds better than “operation”.
The goal for the 31 day period is to max out muscle, lean out where possible and not – at the same time – annoy the hernia. The hernia itself has prior to this been a minor nuisance, but it’s interest in behaving like an alien and trying to escape through my belly button has given me my first real concern.
I am taking the last phases 6-day of zero carbs and sugars followed by a cheat day and tighten it to a cheat evening. That will be Sunday. That’s yoga and sushi night. I’m hoping for one beer night, but other than that there are no scheduled treats.
To this end, a lot of meat has been purchased and the bagged salads to be deployed.
Considering this is a mere 31 days (the last phase was 127), it does not feel as daunting.
My recent vacation was a bit more indulgent than I’d hoped so I have some work to do.
