Day 36

I hope to have the pictures I took on Sunday up on the site as soon as I figure out how to do it.


Ice Cream Headache

Man, it's so cold outside I have an ice cream headache. I think it's colder than yesterday. My solutions, two scarves. No really, it works. Also, Eucerin for those of you have to brave the elements. But it's like NINE degrees outside. I love winter but when it's too cold for me, there's problems. I've lost my favorite mittens too:(

I would walk 19,000 steps

Friday, I walked like 19,000 steps (which is something obscene like 13 miles.) I had my first glass of wine in a month. One was fine. Weird. Sam and I split the veggies and cheese thing at Sisters. He hates olives and brocolli and I hate celery so we swap veggies. This is why we are friends:)

Cholesterol countdown

So besides the olive oil and garlic tablets I've been taking, I discovered that Primrose is supposed to help in that area too. It's also great, in particular, for women for PMS and to help prevent breast cancer. However, it doesn't work for everyone but I'll try it for 3 or 4 months. The evidence is still a bit sketchy. I may try some vitamin B and E which is supposed to help with "women's" issues.


Exercise Overload

I've been trying to channel all my work frustrations into exercise but that just makes me tired and more grumpy. So I'm going to ease off a bit. I don't need to do kickboxing more than once or twice a week and especially do like an hour of yoga after I've done 15,000 steps. BTW, I do feel better this morning. I would suggest the Burt's Bees therapeutic bath crystals. I was so achy from stress and the cold and it works wonders!
