A busy day today. Out the door at 7 am. My 1st stop was Northfield, OH, for my 1st meeting with Society of Children's Book Writers and Illustrators SCBWI. As an illustrator, I was way out of my league, as most in the group have made a living at it, some for decades. But it's always a great boost in creative energy.

After that, it was Cleveland Heights to check on a bathroom job, then to Eastlake to look at another bathroom job, this time for my brother. After that, it was a stop at his place in Perry, to chat about the job, and other odds and ends. I finally got home about 530

Breakfast – burrito
Lunch – big Mac and fries
Dinner – to plain pieces of stake
Snacks – peanut butter pretzels

Day 180 : Friday


05/13/2016
steps 9006
weight 195

Well it's been 6 months now since I started Diet 1, and I've lost about 15 lbs.
I go up and down nearly every day, but mostly down.
I'm working on the idea of starting a 1 day a week, fast, as I seem to be able to hold a certain weight within a pound or 2, but find it harder and harder to drop much without undue Diet 1 stress.
A 1 day fast, usually drops 2- 3 lbs, and for the 1 day it's tolerable. After that, I go back to my Diet 1 routine, which holds it at that level.

Breakfast – cereal and banana
Lunch – meatloaf sandwich
Dinner – plain meatloaf with some carrots
Snacks – ice cream, cheese

1 bite at a time, and 1 day at a time!

194 lbs. today on the VA scales, and of course celebrated by eating too much.
Spent most of the day at Bernie's bike shop and pigged out on snacks.

I did get started on a new kids story, “Grandma's Magic Duck.” When an elderly lady lets out a loud fart, she explains to her granddaughter that it's an invisible dock, named Chuck, that follows her around.

It was a beautiful sunrise on the lake today, and we'll probably be heading back Conneaut around 11 AM.

I'd like to do a few more touristy things while we are out this way, but Gina will want to get back to her cats.

Today won't be much of a fast day, but probably half of the food intake of the last 2 days.

Breakfast – Keisha and a croissant
Lunch – cereal and banana
Dinner –
Snacks – cheese and popcorn

weight ?

I'm up at 4:30 and waiting for the sunrise. I really should be fasting today, but that will have to wait.

One thing I noticed yesterday, was that even natural sugar, like eating an apple, leaves an unpleasant aftertaste.

I also noticed that that I had almost no ringing in the ears. As with most things, I don't really take any time trying to the analyze it, just some days I notice it's there and some days not. This morning as I write this, yes, but I can't say how much, only that there is ringing in the ears. We did get a lot of walking in today :o)

Breakfast – eggs, meat,
Lunch – to much
Dinner – to much
Snacks – way to much
