Nothing new
Wt 231.4
no walk
Todays weight loss surprised me. Food wise, it was another good day. A green smoothie for breakfast, a green smoothie, watermelon, and a banana for lunch, and a bowl of broccoli and cauliflower, and a peach and necterine for supper.
My foot hurt again, and as usual, the pain did get worst as the day went on.

New Low
wt 234.0
I woke up at 4am and got up and read for 2 hours. Then I was freezing, so I went and snuggled next to the Mrs. to get warm. I got up for good at 6:30, showered, and made a green smoothie. It rally hit the spot. Lunch was some leftover smoothie, watermelon, a banana, and some blueberries. Dinner was some cucumber and onions that had sat in vinegor, some cantelope, and a few filbert nuts. I have to admit, I am kind of unsatisfied, and I am sure I didn't get enough calories today. I checked the spinach container, and it had only 100 calories in it, and I havn't used it up yet. So I am pretty confident today was under 1000 calories, and that just isn't enough.
The Mrs. made an appointment for me with a foot specialist on friday. I am really missing walking and riding the bike. I'm pretty sure that it is tendonitis, and not plantar fascitis, or a srtess fracture. Hopefully I will find something out. My fear is she is going to want to give me a shot of cortisone. I have had them before, and am leary of them. I have heard of lingering problems if they are not located just right. Maybe I am putting the cart before the horse.
By the way, today was my lowest weight yet, which surprised me after my four day extravaganza. Although truth be told, none of those days were close to what I used to normally eat. I am so ready to step ont the scale and see 229!

Back to RAW
wt 237.6 37.45 bodyfat
no walk
I havn't blogged for several days, so i need to give a quick review. Wed thru sun were spent eating great cooked food. The first 5 days, I was in St. Louis with the mrs., and we ate very well. Then sat and sun were home with all the offspring, celebrating the mrs. birthday. We had our first ever shrimp boil for lunch on sat, and it was fantastic. Then for supper, 2 of the offspring made chicken wings, and the other one and a friend made a great homemade cake. Sunday was homemade egg mcmuffins, and then lunh out. Supper was tons of leftovers.
I only gained 3.4 pounds through all that, which really surprised me. I had to buy a new scale yesterday, and you will notice i am now posting my % bodyfat too. I am sure it is not real accurate, but it will give an idea of it. I actually was looking forward to getting back to raw. I know it sounds wierd, but while eating the cooked food, I could stuff myself, and be full, but never really feel satisfied. When raw, I usually quit eating long before feeling stuffed, and usually felt satisfied. Thats not to say I didn't crave a cookie or something while raw, but not near like I did while eating cooked.
Todays breakfast was a smoothie made of several handfuls of spinach, a little cilantro, and a handfull of blueberries. I put that in the blender along with a large glass of water, and 8 or so ice cubes. I had half of that for breakfast, and the other half right when I got home. Around 3pm i started really craving my second glass. (weird). Lunch was a banana and a small bowl of mixed fruit. Dinner was the glass of greens, and about 1/4 of a honeydew melon. I hope to make enough spinach smoothie tomorrow to have some to take for lunch too.
I still am not walking, as my left foot just isn't getting any better. I may break down and go to the Dr. (YUCH).
