Feeling Better

Jul 20, 2008 19:29

 I've been on the medication for about two weeks and I feel better.  It's affected my appetite - I eat alot less and I have taken it to heart.  What an excellent opportunity to stop overeating, only eat when hungry, and to cut the junk out of my diet.  I've lost about 4 pounds and increased my exercise as well, and I think I'm in the best shape that I've been in for years!

Today, I did an 18-mile bike ride at the beach.  I wore sweats, as it was supposed to be cold an foggy at the beach, and living 30 miles away in the valley in a different climate zone, I thought I would be OK.  But, the sun did come out, and although I my legs were covered, it did get hot.  I put sunscreen on my face but not my arms, and now they are burnt and draining the liquids right out of me.  I guess I'll be peeling soon.

So, I leave on Wednesday for Hanover on a red-eye flight.  Somehow, I am looking forward more to the flight than the destination.  I love looking out the window at humanity but not being in it.  I am looking forward to relaxing and being a kid again.  And I hope I can get all my work done before I leave.  And there's alot of it.

Toodles, diary, I should have alot to write about next week.  I bought a microphone that attachs to my iPod and becomes a dictaphone machine, syncs to iTunes, and gives me a quicker way of disseminating information.  Although I have to listen to myself and type it in, maybe my thoughts will be quicker and truer to my heart. 

work, medication
