While driving home last night, somebody cut me off. Depending on my mood, I’m liable to say anything… in the midst of sort of swerving, Analise said the funniest thing….. she said in her 3yr old voice… ‘Holy Crap’…. i swear, it was the funniest thing…. she absolutely amazes us with her commentary, most of which is PG13… About 99% of the time, she has an answer for everything, but now and again, she’ll stop, think and just say, I dont know and gives us a puzzled look…
I’ve tried many many different workouts and diets, but never really had a good understanding about food and nutrition. Granted, I won’t disppell the long term benefits of the p90x program, which I only got through day 45 of the 90 day program. While I have unsuccessfully restarted this program several times since August 2009, I intend to complete the 90day program one day…From my last visit, my chiropractor, Jason Kaapke, shared with me this book called, 7 Principles of Fat Burning by Eric Berg. I picked it up from the Orland Park Border’s Books and began reading it. So far, I’ve really enjoyed and learned a lot from it. I normally dislike eating vegetables, thinking they dont taste good or dont fill me up. In the last week, I’ve been living on nearly 100% raw vegetables, fruit and nuts. It also involves drinking a detox drink 3x daily made of cranberry juice, lemon juice, apple cider vinegar and some apple juice…. you have just enough other stuff to offset the vinegar flavor…. also, there’s a green foods drink that I have 3x daily as well. It can be best described as what I imaged fresh cut grass dust in water would taste like… I’m used to it now, so I can down 8oz of it in 2-3 gulps without hesitation…
Anyway, I’ve lost about 5lbs, but it all comes down to how my eating and drinking habits may have been permanently changed… I have lost the cravings of salty food, sugary food, and fried foods… Feeling full through eating lots of vegetables, fruits, and nuts sounded so foreign to me, but my energy levels are up and my mood has been fairly level… I haven’t gone bipolar on my wife and kids in over a week. My mood usually fluctuates on how full or hungry I may be at the time. These days, I’m feeling good steadily through the day. Even when I’m getting hungry, I’m not hitting any crabby spells that used to happen x times daily…
Once the detoxing is over, I can reintroduce foods based on my body type. In the book itself, you take a quiz and you fall into a body type category which helps dictate what foods and exercise you should focus on. I will try to report back on how this goes, but so far I’m eating and feeling better….
Happy Birthday to Aidan Finkle! We’ll be seeing later today!
Well, Analise had a mostly uneventful chemo visit yesterday. Thank God.
Today I took she and Sophia for a dentist visit. Sophia did real well and Analise not so much. Analise was good up until it was her turn and she fought it all the way. Had to help hold her while Jennifer, cleaned her teeth. When Dr Vicki checked her, Analise decided to bit her finger. Hope she’s ok…
