Fat Metabolism 3 day clean

-

 I am in the mood for overkill. My life had become out of control. Waking up at 2 am, getting out of bed, drinking a few glasses of wine and eating a turkey sandwich loaded with mayo was occurring on a regular basis. Depression and anxiety were creeping deeper into my thoughts and ruining my life. I needed to create a clean slate. What pushed me to rethink my life and how I was living started on April 24 during one of my night time excursions to the fridge. Cernovich posted an excerpt from Rich Roll's book Finding Ultra. It was interesting so I followed the link to read more about Rich Roll. The following day I ordered the audio book and began listening as I walked or ran. The poignant question Rich asked himself was whether this is how he wanted to live the rest of his life? Is this it? 

That was April 24-Day 1. I did not give up alcohol or eating a crappy diet although I tried to do a better job. I began walking more and adding in more water, nutrient dense foods, reading 10 pages a day, and getting outside more. Also making sure I read my daily Bible passages. I fell off a few times but at least my focus had started to change. After 8 days of not really seeing any changes in my sleep, body, or mind I decided I needed something more stringent. 

Week 2 but Day of FF Fat Metabolism 

Monday May 2. The kids are back in school and it is time for me to get to work. Despite not having all of the ingredients for the fat metabolism drink, I began the 3 day booster. I felt energized. My mood went up and I did not feel hungry. Even when Tucker got into some trouble at school, my mood remained calm. V8 drink, smoothy for lunch, a healthy dinner of steak and caprese salad with 1 glass of red wine. 3 miles walking

Tuesday May 3 still feeling great. I did the v8 drinks, a lunch smoothy, and a dinner of steak and caprese again with 1 glass of wine. 7 miles

Wednesday May 4 feeling good but the hunger is creeping in. I realized afterward that I was not following the diet by adding carrots, celery, and cucumber slices to feel like I was actually eating food. My sleep was less than the previous 2 nights since I was a little worried about Cannon. Weighed myself after walking and morning v8 drink. It was 141. ugh. Gotta get it down. 5 miles 

Thursday May 5 weight 138  feeling a little bloated. I am not really going to the bathroom as regularly as I should. I also don't do the night time v8 drink. If I want the full benefit I have to start following directions. Today I shift to 5 day booster with a healthy lunch and dinner. Well...it did not work out that way. I fell off my plan. 4 miles

Friday May 6 back to the same ol' crappy food. I did do my morning v8 drink and it was awful. I realize that when I don't get proper sleep I end up eating and drinking more than I should. Which looks like turkey sandwich, cheese, mayo, chips, wine, and junk 7 miles 

Saturday May 7 I had a good sleep last night. I am not weighing myself until Monday morning. Hopefully I can do a better job on my food during the day today. I started with a v8 drink, water, coffee and supplements. A few bites of a scone ugh already cheating and it's only 7am. 

Goal is to get to 135 by next Friday. I know that my weight will fluctuate this weekend since I am not 100% following the diet. Monday I will do the full v8 drink and smoothy boost. I would also like to add in a little more jogging and weights. Walking is good because it doesn't increase my cortisol levels. Keep growing.

 How do you win the war? With good questions. Lost Tools of Writing has laid out an easy format for asking questions in other words-thinking.  Definition: Define your terms. We can’t understand it if we don’t know what it is. While definitions used to involve at least some thinking (at least alphabetizing and spelling), today’s technology has put digital dictionaries in our pockets. Guess what? By asking the questions “what group does it belong to?” and “how is it different from others in that group?” you and your students will be doing some serious thinking. Comparison: How is X like Y? What differences spring out of this similarity? Are these differences of “a certain kind of thing” or differences of “more/less”, “better/worse”, or “bigger/smaller”? Circumstance: What in the world is going on here? What in the world is going on somewhere else? Relations: What was the cause of X? What was the effect of X? Did this effect in turn cause something else? Just because somethin...

Let me tell you about a bear, a skunk, and a hen. Day 68

 I am nearing the end of the challenge. One more weekend, 3 days of school, 1 more faculty day, and a lacrosse playoff game. I am a little undecided about whether I will drink on Friday night. I guess I have to see what happens.  Up at 4:47 still tired but I figured I needed to get up to get my walk before it got too hot and muggy  I had toast, 3 eggs, and coffee. Afterwards I took the dogs for a walk. It was already muggy and buggy. Gross. We headed out to the field then turned down icehouse so Ripper could poop in the woods. Well I turned the corner and saw a black thing in the road. I feel like it was a bear. It looked narrow but it was too slow and deliberate to be a dog. We turned and ran the other way. The black spot was still there. Finally when I took a break to walk the dogs pulled me to the right towards a clump of trees. Right there in front of me was a skunk with its tail up ready to shoot. We got away from that before it was too late. THEN a hen skirted acros...

One week later

For 60 hours, I let all the requirements of 75 Hard fade away. I had wine, margaritas, junk food and no workouts. It is time to get back to it. I have to make a decision about the 55k. Am I in?  I continued living large for the entire week post-75 hard. It has been wild. Friday was my final day. The kids were waiting for their big playoff game while I finished my checklist and cooked burrito casserole. The game was exciting with the bomb threat, change of venue, and the eventual big win. I had my margaritas and burrito casserole. We hosted Ricardo from Germany and Nomar from Brooklyn, who will be coming here next year. On Saturday morning, the boys had an easy practice, I did my long run, and we just hung out all day. I really don't remember what else we did... Sunday was Father's Day. We argued about what to do and finally said, let's go to Portland. It was a beautiful, cool day. We ate at the Port Hole (something like that). It was so delicious. I had fish tacos, Tucker h...
