I went to sleep about 9pm last night, and slept deeply until I was Woken up at 5:40 this morning by my alarm. Oops forgot to turn it off yesterday since its my day off today. But I had some things I had to get done this morning before I start the routine today. Because […]

After having such a rough time of it last year on the juice portion of the fast, I decided to take matters in my own hands. Last year I bought prepared juices and had a fairly rough time. I’m not sure if it’s just that my stomach didn’t like the extras that come with commercially […]

Last year, I did a milk cure for 3 weeks, blogged it and regained my health and perspective in the process. This year, I’m going to do it again. I’ve had a number of people ask me why I’m doing it for a second year and if its going to be a yearly ritual.  This […]

This month has been an exercise in frustration. Within a day or two of writing my last post, I was down to 179 pounds!  Wow, 21 pounds gone and I was out of the 180’s. Life was good I thought. But then I ended up gaining about 3 pounds in the month and when I […]

Wow, what a month. After a few months of calorie restriction that didn’t go anywhere along with copious amounts of exercise where I ended up gaining weight, I went on a 3 week milk cure and lost almost 6 pounds in three weeks. This month I embarked on my ketogenic (low carbohydrate) eating plan. I […]

So this past month was a game changer.  But probably not in the way that any average person would think.  I’m changing my way of thinking about all this because I’m realizing a bunch of things I thought and blogged was wrong. So mea-culpa. If you don’t know, these posts are written early and scheduled […]
