2014 The 5 Bite Diet Day 16

I was not feeling real good today. I had a small touch of the runs in the morning. This did not stop my determination to continue with this diet. Later in the day it went away around noon. I really did not feel like eating lunch, but I forced myself to eat. I think it actually helped. By the time I ate dinner my stomach felt much better. I have been drinking a lot of coffee these past few days. I cut back on the coffee and drank more water today. I have no idea if the coffee played a role in anything in particular. I guess I was trying to used the caffeine to help cut the hunger. That being said, things are better now and I will see how things fare this weekend.

5 30 2012 The 5 Bite Diet Day 16

Still Standing Yall! My Spirits are on the up and up. My Energy is good.

I went to see a specialist today and he thinks maybe my gout is acting up. I do not agree with him and will schedule a second opinion. I had gout. I know how it feels. You cant mistake it for anything else. It is hell and way worse than what I am going through now. Jeez!!! I have not had a gout flare up for over 8 years. This guy is fresh out of Med school and I am his new guinea pig. I will pass. His does not have a clue.



Anyway I have a natural cure for gout. It saved my life and it was almost free. Yes less than one US dollar.

My rings are getting lose, not quite there yet. I hate health issues. It can really bring me down. I have enough issues with weight, let alone other deals. Good Grief!!!

Results thus far:

(Please let me know if I mess up on my math below, I might add or subtract incorrectly)

Day 01 = (0.0) = 00.0 lbs loss current weight: 190.0 lbs (just starting)
Day 02 = (2.0) = 02.0 lbs loss current weight: 188.0 lbs (nice)
Day 03 = (1.6) = 03.6 lbs loss current weight: 186.4 lbs (this is how we do it)
Day 04 = (1.8) = 05.4 lbs loss current weight: 184.6 lbs (lovely)
Day 05 = (1.2) = 06.6 lbs loss current weight: 183.4 lbs (interesting)
Day 06 = (1.8) = 08.4 lbs loss current weight: 181.6 lbs (oh, yeah)
Day 07 = (1.2) = 09.6 lbs loss current weight: 180.4 lbs (keep it coming)
Day 08 = (0.4) =  10.0 lbs loss current weight: 180.0 lbs (Battle On!!!)
Day 09 = (0.8) =  10.8 lbs loss current weight: 179.2 lbs (Yo!)
Day 10 = (0.8) =  11.6 lbs loss current weight: 178.4 lbs (OK?)
Day 11 = (1.0) =  12.6 lbs loss current weight: 177.4 lbs (OK part 2)
Day 12 = (1.2) =  13.8 lbs loss current weight: 176.2 lbs (OK part 3)
Day 13 = (0.8) =  14.6 lbs loss current weight: 175.4 lbs (Jeez)
Day 14 =(+4.0) = 10.6 lbs loss current weight: 179.4 lbs (Just Shoot Me)
Day 15 =(+0.4) = 10.2 lbs loss current weight: 179.8 lbs (Hold the Line!!!)
Day 16 =  (1.0) = 11.2 lbs loss current weight: 178.8 lbs (Fighting Back)

I am Battling Back. I wont be defeated. I will keep pushing forward. I told the folks at church that I must be off my feet. They said they could accommodate me. They even have golf carts to take me around the place and I could sit at the conference Center with my foot elevated. I even got a fancy boot today, form the Doctor, to put on my foot when I walk. It is not bad, but I can not drive with it.

I dont know what the immediate future holds as far as my illness, but I will continue with the 5 Bite Diet for now. I will stick to only protein unless I have no other choices. I have to leave some things in Gods hands.

Have a Healthy Day my Friends and Family. I must keep Focused. I must hold Fast. Great things are just waiting around the corner.

Todays Menu: Black coffee, H20, Seltzer Water, Bulletproof Coffee and Grilled T-Bone Steak.

It aint about how hard ya hit. Its about how hard you can get it and keep moving forward. How much you can take and keep moving forward. - Rocky Balboa

9 16 2012 Supplemental Vanguard

Good Day!!! My Spirits and Energy levels are nice.

I hope everyone is doing well. Where has the time gone? Where indeed. I have been working hard on many fronts right now. I ended up working Saturday on a special project at my place of employment. So only one day off this weekend.

I have been doing very well. I am focusing my spar time to thoughts of what should "be" and what should "be not". With what your may ask. With what indeed!!! So folks may think this is easy, well my friends and family it is not, at least for me.



OK, back to reality or is it??? So what in the heck is going on? I wish I had all the answers my Friends and Family, yet sadly I dont. No worries yall, no worries at at all. Ooh so optimistic. Why not? Hey I have a nice little tight group here and "WE" have what we have, which is not much at the moment. HA! So that leads me to the next statement:  "Is There Anyone Out There?" Five simple words that say a lot. What do they mean to me: Well, they mean .................. well.......... now that is a tough one. I guess it means how many people out there think like me. I am comfortable to say most of the regular folks that comment here or email me do or they would not bother.

So now I will finally reveal my long awaited plans to "TAKE OVER THE WORLD" HA!!! Alright that was just a joke yall. Well I dont want to be corrupted by fame and fortune dont ya know? LOL!!!

Hey what is a humble guy to do? Yes, I am humble as humble as they come. For the most part I am just a simple person on a mission. I try to use my little brain to come up with what I think is right. So there you go.

Have a Healthy Day my Friends and Family. Live Long, Be Strong and Always Battle On!!!

Keep Reaching for the Stars

Cheers,

Dave

5 16 2012 The 5 Bite Diet Day 2

Good day. My Spirits are great. My Energy levels are good.

OK day 2 in progress and feeling great. I have a really good feeling about this, and I will try not to get too ahead of myself. Now if I can just stay healthy during this period things should progress the way it should without outside interference. HA!!!

I just hate obsessing about food. I love to eat. I love the taste of food, the textures, and the smell. I want to think of food as just fuel, but I can’t. How can I when I a somewhat an armature cook/chef or food artesian.  Food in my hands is like clay to a sculptor. It’s like canvas to a painter. You get the message.

So that is how it is with me. I don’t regret it one bit other than I have handled or mishandled my food intake for way too long. Choices………….. we all must make choices. Which one is right? Which one is wrong? How do we know? For me I have to experiment. Yes that nasty word that begins with an “E”. Yes, I have fallen on my face at times ………….. OK many times.

That being said I have also have had some success. There were some “doubters” and some “haters” that thought I would fail. They thought I was crazy. Crazy? Hmm ……… I need to think about that one, crazy huh …………. Or do I? HA!!! Anyway I can look them in the face and say guess “WHO” is not at 280 lbs anymore? Yet, they still criticize me on how I have lost the weight. Go figure.

Dave what’s all this jibber jabber? Get on with the results, will ya? Sure why not.

Results thus far:

Day 1 = (0.0) = 00.0             current weight: 190 lbs (just starting)
Day 2 = (2.0) = 02.0 lbs loss current weight: 188 lbs (nice)


Great start, yes? Maybe. Yall all know those first few pounds I usually credit to water weight. So the loss is defiantly good if not great, but I will see where I am at on......... lets say Day 7 or 8 and then my Friends and Family, then we will see what we will see. Ya see? HA!!!


I will make an effort to keep my homemade update chart as "even" as possible. I may have to add a zero here and there to balance it out, but it should be easy to read and reflect what is really happening . So how low can I go? Lets find out together.


I always appreciate encouragement and support. I will work on issues with folks having trouble joining the blog. Just continue to email me as you have in the past. The email for this blog is the same as the other blog. That never changes no matter how many blogs I open or close. I still have a lot of small details to workout. I will get there soon I hope.


Have a Healthy Day my Friends and Family. Off to a good start. Time to be positive and focused at the task at hand.


Todays Menu: Black coffee, H20, Seltzer Water, Andouille Sausage and Supreme Pizza.


Just Chillin

Cheers,


Dave
