day 4 .5

Dear Blogging Peeps


an update


Thanks for everyone who checked on me during my sniffling phase.
Perhaps it was re re induction introduction flu.
Perhaps it was the real flu. I did have a very difficult case last week.
And worked almost every day between my two jobs.
And we did have one heck of a snow storm.... with more to come.
And more than 3 of those days had no heat... it was like 62 degrees INSIDE!


My Liquid Protein Fast is still going great. 
A little hunger. Made easier by a few bites of solid matter.
(I'm not purist - even in this!)
My neighbor, who is in some ways my biggest critic fan, came by. 
And looked at me and said "Ohhhh!" before I could even tell her 
about the fasting and The Twins. So the difference in just this many days 
is noticeable. My neighbors love my fat pictures all around the apartment.


I wanted to keep going on this phase, the liquid phase, until I have to stop. 
Maybe a week; maybe 10 days. I don't like to broadcast my plans 
because it feels like failure, or worse, if the plans have to change. 
Not that there's anything wrong with Bloggers who change alot; there's not.
But some things I can step out on, and feel comfortable with an announcement.


So as long as all check points are "go," then so am I.
I added the extra protein. That was a good idea.
And started taking the vitamin again.... just a good daily one.
Centrum in this case... nothing fancy or organic. Just simple. 
Centrum Silver because it won't cause heartburn, which I once had,
but not ever since going LoCarb. I haven't really taken a vitamin in over a year.
I also take a GNC vit B complex now that I don't live on Monster drinks.


I mentioned that I will reward myself for stopping the Monster Abuse
by getting some Beatles on iTunes.... which is bound to come in handy when I
take my drive to California. It's really just simple math. I take the $$ I once spent 
on 3 (or more, actually) Monsters a day. In one month, I could get the whole Anthology.


So the update is good, no? I am not so strong, but I am determined. 
It's like a learning phase to me. Thanks for coming along!


By the by - I am 5'2" and my last weight was 140. Before this fast.
Still in the over-weight category.  So no immediate danger 
of me falling off the egde of the metabolic earth!  For now!

who is that  :D

Thank You Kindly,
