I'm tired of trying....

-
basically I'm just tired. No, seriously!! I'm working really hard at eating right lately. Really hard. But life has rapidly gotten extremely busy in a short amount of time. I'm trying to write my proposal for my thesis (trying being the operative word), I would like to finish my thesis entirely by the end of summer, I'll be teaching summer school and getting ready to teach full time in July. I have quite a full plate and there isn't a lot of room for food on it (LOL, I crack me up). So I was thinking of trying something a little different with the food. Something where I don't have to think so much. Something where it's delivered to my door in the proper portion sizes and all I have to do is heat and eat. Something that would take the work out of eating right and yet still allow me to continue to lose weight. So, since I was avoiding writing my proposal and I felt like doing another video entry, here are more of my thoughts:




Nutrisystem has been around a long time. Their food sounds and looks good. I love the low glycemic index thingee, do you have any idea how hard it is to try and grab a snack and have to think how will this effect my blood sugar and will I be crashing in an hour??? It's a pain in the butt I tell you. But with Nutrisystem I wouldn't have to think twice. Eat the meals and snacks, add the fruits and veggies, not thinking about it so no chance to screw it up. So that's what I'm thinking. If you've tried it please feel free to share your experiences.

I did do nutri system I think twice a long time ago. Each time, I loathed most of the the lunch and dinner foods. It was bland and boring and some of it just sucked. Of course soon as I went off it, it just made me want to eat everything in sight. That being said, may be it's better food now.
I do know a few people that have had success losing about 30 lbs on this program but they do have the tendency to yo-yo back and forth up in weight later, but who doesn't? ha.
I know...I feel like I'm at the end of my rope with me weight and would consider a program such as this but I think I'll give ole WW a good try again as I need to cook for the family too.

There are many ways to measure success,

and today I found yet another one. The Great Aloha Run this morning was just awesome. I didn't break any records, it was not my best time by far, but I think this was one of my best races ever. After getting up at 4 a.m., driving to the finish line, catching a bus to the start, standing in line for the port-a-potties(more on this later), I still found myself with over 45 mins before the race started. So I found a place to sit and people watched for 1/2 an hour - that is always fun. Finally, at 6:45 we headed out to the start. One of the things the Great Aloha Run does is they have the Sounds of Freedom. These are military units from all over the island that run in formation singing cadence the whole way. They line up on the side of the road and they have a silent start 8 minutes before the race starts. It's always a special sight to see them go. I'm a flag waving fool and when I see our military I just get all gushy. I feel so proud to live in a country where young...

Colloidal Silver

-
colloidal silver is very fine particles that are suspended in liquid, usually water. This apparently has antimicrobial properties and has been used externally to treat wounds and burns to prevent infection. Working in the lab we get lots of nasty, nasty burns. You ain't been burned till you've been burned with hot sodium hydroxide - yow momma!!!! Anyway, we always kept a jar of colloidal silver around and used it on burns. It not only helped it heal it seemed to reduce the pain. I don't know how it just did. Now, some folks think you should drink this. They say it has antibiotic properties and is fairly harmless to drink. I don't know if that's true but it sure would be nice if it was. I hate taking antibiotics for a number of reasons. It would be nice to be able to drink something and have the same thing happen. colloidal silver has also been used to keep potable water drinkable for long periods. This sounds like some pretty amazing stuff. Being the scien...

My blog is great!!!

-
Look to the left there. My blog has been rated by blogged.com as Great!!! I scored 8.5 out of 10. Woo Hoo!!! I don't normally get excited over things like this, but I'm on a mission to create great blogs and this is just a little validation. So for some reason I was incredibly busy last night and stayed up way past my bedtime. As a result I didn't get up this morning. Well, that and the fact that is was freaking cold. We are in this spring weather cycle where it is warm and beautiful during the day, and cold, cold, cold at night. Makes for good sleeping but hard getting out of bed. Fe-Lady is raising funds for a really, really good cause. Go here and help her out why don'tcha. In my humble opinion there is not enough we can do to help out our American Heroes. So go, give, it'll feel good...... That's it for now. I need to get some work done.
