    Had another little blip yesterday but back on track again - McD's messed up my sons order and he wouldn't eat what they gave and I should have just binned it but I gave in and ate it - was too far away from the restaurant by the time we realised - am in a little pain today but will make sure I check orders before I leave next time - it didn't make me crave either which is good so no major damage done

    5 mile walk to Publix.
    Dom D'Agastino keeps mentioning King Arthur's Sardines so I decided to buy a tin of them and see how they taste. I've never been much of a sardine fan but will try them....

    Guess that's King OSCAR not Arthur. :)

    I've been taking magnesium & potassium supplements, but need to increase my sodium. Also I think my protein has been too low. I'm 47 and don't exercize. But don't want to lose any existing muscle.

    Another day. Another health walk to the grocery store. 2.5 miles of blue skies, sunshine and happy walking tunes.

    Another day, another health walk to the grocery store. A little over 3 miles. Ran out of half and half this AM and got a new C battery to replace the one in the smoke alarm that started chirping about 3 AM. :o

    Have decided to do a fast for the final days of August, and then am going to do a back to basics meat month challenge, have been eating ZC but the last week have had a few things that have made me very inflamed and I need to find out what it is, so going to be eliminating a lot more stuff from my diet to see if it helps - will be giving up coffee and dairy for the whole of September to see how it makes me feel

    Have ended up finishing August really badly, found out my Grandad died on Saturday and I have ended up bingeing badly, which is very annoying but I will get back on track, have done it before and know I can again.
