Thanks!
Re: finding something to do curls with, I remembered yesterday I have a set of those exercise band. If I use the toughest one and stand on it so that the handles only go up to my knees without stretching, I can stand straight up and do biceps curls that are actually slightly more challenging than on the machine. I could only do about 18 before the burn as opposed to 23 reps I was at on the machine. Not sure how much more of the band I can stand on to make them tougher. I don't think it's intended for a person to stand really close to the handles and stretch the hell out of it. |

Ran a new PR for my neighborhood loop. 4.2 miles and I finally cracked 40 minutes. Also, my weight was flat after the week long business trip.
Glad not to have backslid in my struggle to stop being a FFPOS. |

After 2 days of the ACV, my eyesight is back to 20/20, my junk has grown 3 inches, and I am now fluent in Gaelic. ACV is the shit !!
Actually I've lost 3 pounds and haven't changed any major eating /workout habits. May be something to this stuff. |

Welp. Definitely hit the end of the easy water-weight losing phase. 212.4 lbs 2 days ago, 213 lbs yesterday, 212.6 lbs today.
Now it becomes a grueling waiting game. Gotta keep on trucking. |

211.4 lbs. It asked me if I wanted to recalculate my goals since I've lost over 10 lbs, said yes, and it erased my weight lost so far badge.
But I'm halfway to 200 lbs. |

Is anyone else getting agita from the ACV? I'm diluting 1 tsp in my 24 oz water bottle 3x a day and still having issues.
I need to at least give this a fair try for my uric acid based kidney stones (although any weight loss would be a nice plus), as nothing else is helping much... |

I've had kidney stones and gout in my ankles from uric acid. I tried the prescription drugs. They didn't help. I read about and started drinking one glass of 100% Cherry Juice a day. Knock on wood...I haven't had a problem with gout since. It will breakdown the acid and allow you to pass it through urine. Just make sure it is the 100% pure stuff, like Nestle Juicy Juice.

Having my usual bounce back on weight loss with only a net of 2 lbs in 10 day.

I have not weighed in. I don't think I want to. I wasn't very good over the weekend. I went to a beer fest, ate pizza, and then went to a St. Patty's Day party - where I ate, then I left.
I did however walk quite a bit on Friday and Sunday, and am hoping to get back to the ice rink today. Finally ordered new skating boots too!!! (this part I am super excited about) |
