The longest journey starts...
...with but a single step. Okay. Finished the Colonblow stuff at lunch-time today. Still waiting for results. It tasted pretty foul, and I felt uncomfortably full all last night and this morning. I've been drinking water and pomegranate juice (antioxidant power!) all day. Lunch was mom's tacos: I...

STEP ONE
Well, due to some scheduling problems with my son's basketball schedule, my singing schedule, and the Daddy Weekends, I didn't get to start my "Colon Blow" last night as I had planned. So, since I would have to wait two more weeks if I don't do it this weekend, I'm doing it tonight. My only worry is...

All the Kits Are Here...
So I'm ready to begin this radical approach getting this weight off. I will do the colon cleanse this weekend. Then I'm gearing up for two weeks of low carb before I go on a 10 to 20 day cleansing fast. I've got to get a lot of stuff out of the house, and I need to get some fresh veggies and stuff...

Trying Something New
I ordered a special kit last week in preparation for a kick-start to my diet. It's one of two kits that I am going to try as an adjunct to my low-carb diet. Both kits are designed to cleanse the body of waste. The first is called Colon Blow, and it is designed to thoroughly clean out the colon. The...

Company Holiday Party Today
This is the second one in two weeks. The original party was postponed because a number of people were unable to make it through the ice and snow to the office for the first party. But those of us who did make it had brought our contributions and, of course, those things had to be eaten. They...

It's Hard to Be Strong
I am counting down the days until January 2. On January 2, the one-month moratorium on gifts begins, ending 33 days later on Valentine's Day. You see, I am sitting here, desperately trying to keep to my diet, and all these gifts are pouring in at the office, at church, and at home. In the past few...

Back on the Wagon
At last, I am buckling down to really get this lower-carb / controlled-carb thing back into my life. Things have slowed down and stabilised enough that I feel comfortable returning to what is, after all, a rather labour intensive way of eating. I mixed up a huge batch of chicken salad on Sunday, and...

A Totally Low-Carb Day....
a repost from April 12...but instructive in how a low-carb dieter's meals should be structured. Today's meals. As I was ill yesterday, I didn't get up until 10, so only two meals today, plus a small snack in midafternoon. Brunch was a skillet casserole of browned ground beef with a bit of onion and...

Hydration Update
<repost from Feb. 3, 2004.> Dreah recently inquired whether I had kept up the hydration boot camp regimen, and, if so, what it had done for me. I must confess that I am the most inconsistent person on the face of the planet. And my job situation does not permit me to have a timer beeping at me every...

Ah, Wonderful Anorexia
I love it when this happens, because it always means that my body has shifted into fat-burning mode and I'm about to lose some serious poundage. Now, before you get your knickers in a twist, I am not referring to the medical condition known as anorexia nervosa. That's a horse of a different colour....
