Do or do not, there is no try

-
Okay, time to draw a line in the sand. Time to stop the BS and get serious. For weeks I've been saying I need to get back on track, start eating right, stop eating carbs, blah, blah, blah.... I start, either paleo or carb night, and go a few days then bam - eat something that I shouldn't and ruin everything. So today is the day that BS ends. I know that I can do ultra low carb with a cheat day once a week and do well - so it's time to do it. A huge part of the problem is the way I've been phrasing it and thinking of it in my head. I keep saying I'm going to try this.....I will try to eat ultra low carb.....I have nothing to eat.....I have to eat rice.....BS all of it BS!!!!! So starting right here, right now that all changes. I WILL eat ultra low carb. I WILL do that for 9 days and then have a cheat day on the 10th (next Sunday). I will work out EVERY SINGLE DAY!!!! Even if that only means walking the dogs. I WILL do it!!!! I started wearing my Fitbit again and I will use it to keep me on track. I WILL walk 10,000 steps per day, even if that means getting on the treadmill at night. I WILL do my PT exercises and I WILL do WODs here at home. I have taken the month off from Crossfit, but that is no reason to sit on my a*s and do nothing. I am an adult. I control my own thoughts and actions. I will stop this nonsense now. Right now.

The plan for today is as follows:
- My healthy breakfast.
- I have to buy lunch, so I will NOT eat the rice that comes with it. Also, no sauces......
- Come home and HIIT and a short WOD (no dog walking tonight since Hubby works)
- A low carb dinner that I make myself.
- Water, water, water.......

There!! Not really all that hard. I will do this. I am in control, I have the power to make choices.... I am in control!!!!!

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.
