Control

I am!!! And I'm starting to feel it again. Today is the first of June and I am making a change. I have been logging my food, but I have not been focusing on what I've been eating. So today it is back to eating good food. As an interesting side note, logging without focusing on food has really been a good thing. I feel like my relationship with food has changed. I do not view any food as an enemy. I also do not find myself craving things or binge eating. Nice. I'm still eating more sweets than I would like, but still a lot less then I would before. Food is just food. I am working on removing the emotions from food and I feel like I am succeeding. I still have to watch that I eat enough, but I really feel like my relationship with food has changed and that is a good thing.

So focusing on what I eat and working to hit my numbers. More activity, in spite of my injury. Starting today I will be using the treadmill to walk on. A. Lot. I didn't get to walk the dogs yesterday because of rain, but if the weather is nice I will definitely do it today. So it's moving, moving, moving. There will be no laying around doing nothing. I can watch TV while I walk on the treadmill. I can work on my proposal while I walk on the treadmill. No more hours spent sitting on my ass. I have this before and it lasted for a day or two, but this time I really mean it. I have got to lose some weight and the only way to do that is to get, and keep, moving.

Today's agenda includes; house cleaning, shopping, prepping food, cleaning the refrig, and lots and lots of walking. So I've sat here long enough, time to get moving.

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.
