31/12/22 ^^^My enemy is Sugar and Flour.

I ate capati, then chocolate, and then 3-in-1 coffee.

Blew away Dry Run during dinner.

What is the lesson?

I need to stick to the Diet Axiom.


 I have to follow the protocol.

There goes my Dry Run.  OK, today is the last day.  From now on it is about looking forward.

mm

31/12/22 ^^^It feels great when I focus on diet and exercise

 Truly, I had found the key to my Kingdome Come.  It's all here...



Hey thanks for believing in me.
MY OH MY, SLADE


I am so hyped up for  2023.  I will fight gout and win.  Today is already the Dry Run.  This is a daily commitment until 23/3/23.

I want it bad enough.  70 kg by Ramadan.
Then by Syawal is the 10 K Training.
2023 is my Training Year.

I will fight the pain.  Keep pushing the limit.

This is nothing more than SSIDSLIP:

Do not eat things that man makes.

Today I must do the afternoon walk.  I need to fight gout first, then obesity, and finally hypertension. The cataract is given.  All will be over by Ramadan.

NO SNACKING!
I need to regulate my blood sugar.  I can do that by not taking Sugar and Flour for 2 weeks.  I have been wanting to quit sugar since 2021.

For dinner, I made a conscious decision to eat capati.

31/12/22 ^^^The Dry Run had started

 I am doing the Supersets right now.  I'm taking it really easy so that I don't strain my knee.

On weekend I eat 2 full-course meals. No oatmeal and skipping rice.

I notice, if I exercise, I am not hungry.

So skipping breakfast is working.

mm

>>>#31/12/22 Think only of the Resolution

 The differentiator is diet and exercise.  As long as I stay within the framework, I'll be OK.  The major differentiator [] (is) the 16/8 IF.

Next are the OMEH and 2MEH.  Although my knee hurt when I exercise, I still have to do it:

Superset One

1.  Bicep

2.  Tricep

3. Squat

4.  Military Press

5.  Chest Fly

6.  Shoulder Extension


Superset Two

1.  Squat
2.  Upright Row
3.  Roman Deadlift
4.  Military Press
5.  Lunge
6.  Bend Over Row

Superset Three

1. Kettlebell Exercise

    • Deadlift X 10
    • Goblet Squat x 10
    • Russian Swing x 15
    • High Pull/Vertical Row x 10
    • Around the World x 15 LR
    • Russian Twist x 10


30/12/22 ***Just had the best shepherd pie I ever tasted

It was baked like a lasagna.

That was the closure for 2022:

  • Shepherds' Pie
  • Duck with Salted Egg and Pasta
  • Pepperoni Pizza
  • Seafood Pizza
  • Ice Cream and Peanut Butter Waffle
  • Long Black Coffee
 Tomorrow is a dry run beginning with the morning walk.

I am so enthusiastic to start a new life next year. A life of training.  I am enthusiastic to lose THIRTY KG.  That will be the central theme,

This obesity business is really a serious business.  Both sides of the family are fat.  Here I am aiming to win the Ultimate Health and Happiness trophy.

This will be my obsession.  I will talk of nothing else for the next 3 months.  I want to get w[i]ll (well) and run again.  40% of the US population are insulin resistant.  That is pretty scary.

-------------------------------------------------------------
Sure, tomorrow is the dry run.  I will religiously follow the 2023 Resolution to the hilt.  I will make it [] (to) the 70 kg by the first of Ramadan.

Come, Sarah.. we enjoy Lite  FM in bed.

30/12/22 ^^^According to Mark Sisson, we need to eat less by fasting

 One more day to go to 2023.  By then, I will follow the 2023 Resolution for 3 months.

I got to fight Insulin Resistance:


mm

30/12/22 ^^^I have to refrain from eating breakfast

Then at 11:30 am, I'll go for my apple and oatmeal lunch.

The cleaner I eat the less illness I encounter.

Let's revisit this:


Always, it is the ability to withstand hunger.  If I cannot go for delayed gratification, then I cannot win the Universe Within.

DELAYED GRATIFICATION - 70 kg in 3 months.

Let's see what Mark Sisson has to say.


Just execute the plan.  Then patiently wait for the result.

Eating one serving of rice doesn't help.  For the past 6 months, my weight stalled.  From 1/7/22 it was 103.6 kg.  Today is 101.8 kg.  That is a 6 months snapshot. 

I need a different strategy.  Damn right I will fight obesity and gout.  Therefore I change what I eat.  We'll try this for another 3 months.  Skip breakfast.

What causes the weight to stall?  
Insulin resistance.

What causes insulin resistance?
3-in-1 Coffee and Jacob's Cream Crackers.

I must cut Sugar and Flour beginning today.  This is my mantra for the next 3 months.  I need to be thin.

The hunger subsided after 11:00 am.

That is a good start...

mm    


 




>>>#30/12/22 Starting from basics, following the rhythm of oud music

 Certainly, I have to eat right.  I'm not too sure if I can move more right now.

I am skipping breakfast.  Just to test the effectiveness.

mm

29/12/22 ^^^Beautiful Spanish Guitar

 This is a therapy:


What do we talk about?  Anything and everything about possibilities.  We got to cross the chasm.  Only then will we see beyond sight.  Otherwise, we are stuck in the current mindset.  My mindset now is the mindset of illness.  I need to move to the mindset of health.

What is the vehicle to take me there?

I decided that it would be the oud music.

Yes indeed.

mm

29/12/22 ^^^It is discomforting to live with an illness

 This is true when the illness restricts your movement.  Therefore, the idea is to move more by using the upper body more.  I am starting that tonight.

I cannot sit still.  I need to lose 30 kg.  I'll do whatever it takes to lose that much.

The toughest battle is the battle within.  I got to fight gout, hypertension, prediabetes, and cataract.  All by being THIN.  Forget about the external world.

Let's hold on to these assertions:

“If we could give every individual the right amount of nourishment and exercise, not too little and not too much, we would have the safest way to health.” – Hippocrates

“These small things – nutrition, place, climate, recreation, the whole casuistry of selfishness – are inconceivably more important than everything one has taken to be important so far.” – Friedrich Nietzsche

“Exercise is king, nutrition is Queen, put them together and you’ve got a kingdom.” - The Universe Within

I shall fight these: 

Pain, fatigue, brain fog, etc.

This still holds true:


I'll do it.  This is the real hero's journey.

mm

29/12/222 ***I cannot afford downtime

From now until 7/1/23, I need to go easy on the exercise.  Cannot afford to miss the Van Gogh exhibition.

My priority is to get thin.  That means the emphasis is on food management.  Exercise is limited to walking.  That's what I do for the next 3 months.  

It seems that this is not a short-term measure.  30 kg in 6 months.  And then the running.  This requires total commitment.  Not enough that I put in the effort.

The weight problem is serious.  I need to walk at least AHAD.  Definitely I need to eat sensibly. My Target is to lose 10 kg in January.

I have to do it.  This is already critical.  The culprit is the 3-in-1 Coffee.  

-----------------------------------------------------------------

Very well, beginning tomorrow, I enforce my 2023 resolution.

No breakfast, ACV, no 3-in-1 Coffee, Oatmeal Lunch, single serving dinner, exercise 2 hours a day, 2MEH.  These are my 2023 improvements.

>>>#29/12/22 Missed the alarm entirely

 I'm going to follow the daily routine I had set for  next year.

Some people want to use you, some people want to be used by you.

I am crazy and I admit I am crazy.  There are other crazy people who don't admit they are crazy and yet they are pretty high on the list.

Today I skip breakfast.

mm

28/12/22 ###Enjoying the Best of Burt Bacharach

I like songs composed by Burt Bacharach.  So soothing.  I can think clearly while listening to his various artists.

This is my favorite:

I tell you what...  Beginning tonight, we just go easy until 1/1/2023.  Whenever I can, I listen to Els.  Then back to Easy Listening again.

mm


 

28/12/22 ^^^Fought fatigue and won

 Looks like the state of mind is dependent on the neurotransmitters.  That is then dependent on what we eat and how often we move.

This Jazz Lounge is really excellent.  I decided to only listen to Els in 2023.  The rest is Jazz and Lite.

It doesn't matter, really.  I am so alert after dinner that I just want to flow.

I am listening to Jazz Sexiest Ladies. Not too bad at all.  Too slow, but I hang on.

I just leave all these behind me for good in 2022:

  • 3-in-1 Coffee
  • Fag
  • Dope
  • Cunt
  • Sugar and Flour

Fly me to the moon...

I like the jazz version.

mm

28/12/22 ^^^I have to fight fatigue

 So so tiring.  How about 2 doses of everything?  Cod Liver Oil, Multi B, and Magnesium?  A single dose starts to show effects.  I'll do double doses.  Let's wait for a while.

I feel pretty uplifted by the doses.

OK, let's start to look into the 2023 1st Quarter Planning:

  • Wake up at 7:30 am
  • Brisk Walk: 8:00 am - 9:00 am
  • ACV at 10:00 am
  • OMEH and 2MEH:  10:00 am - 5:00 pm
  • Oatmeal Lunch at 12:00 noon
  • Brisk Walk:  6:00 pm - 7:00 pm
  • Full Meal Dinner at 8:00 pm
  • Sleep at 10:00 pm
I will be thin again if I do this for 3 months before Ramadan 23/3/23.

There you go...  A plan that I can follow.

mm

 

28/12/22 ***Gotta beat the Cabin Fever

I am going to have laksa and chendol this afternoon.

Man, this fatigue is overwhelming,

mm

28/12/22 ###Still within the Golden Holiday phase

I'm tired of doing the same thing day in, and day out.  The medications make me fatigued.  

I need to start walking again.  The normal walk.  Not the marking time type.  That caused inflammation.

mm

28/12/22 ***Not all days are monotonous

 There are days when the sun is brighter.  Today is a gloomy day to start with.  Nevertheless, I am quite happy with my interaction with Els.  I now know that I am wanted or perhaps desired by her.  It is a comforting feeling.

I also have to say that I am pretty much at home with Lite FM.  The songs are very much synchronized in forming the Cybernetic Loop.  TraXX has a lot to learn about synchronicity should they want to qualify as a Trailblazer.  The proof is in the quality of the output that I produce.

I say that from this day onwards, I move with greater certainty with Els.  She is really a very special girl.  A one in a million. Younger men don't know how to react to this ball of energy.  I like to set her free and just watch her fly as freely as a bird.  No ownership whatsoever.  Just Secure Attachment.

mm

28/12/22 ^^^The knee pain make me appreciate the marathon even more

 Imagine the complexity of the knee and the ability to run long distances.  Now, imagine the same knee which is so fragile that a simple exercise causes some serious inflammation that lasts for a week.

I believe I can still beat the illness with physiotherapy.  Very slowly, starting with walking.

Bebe, I have a proposition for you. If you deplore and despise me and my style, please let me know now. That way I will let you be. Otherwise, I will act normally and connect with you as often as possible. Consider this your chance to get rid of me. Fair?

Pretty straightforward proposition.

OK, so you don't hate me. That is a relief. With regard to the twin outfit, nope. Nope, not me. Too much of an individual to lose my identity.


And so, that settles it. By 24/12/24 I will support you with your nafkah (sustenance). Even then, you are free as a bird. I don't believe in Total Ownership. You can do whatever you like. Like the dowry, I just want to give you the money.


Awww Els, you should have taken the dowry. That way, things are cut and dry. Now I don't know if you accept me as a husband.
I mean as your husband. Because based on the "33 888" epiphany, you are my third wife. ASK WITHOUT HIDDEN MOTIVES AND BE SURROUNDED BY YOUR ANSWER; BE ENVELOPED BY WHAT YOU DESIRE This is the wisdom of ages. Ask as if it is already happening.

Anyway, everything counts but nothing matters. So personally, you as my wife count.

When I think about it, I figured that I probably had made a major blunder. I should have wooed you much longer than to rush into marriage. Imagine, I am already your sweetie when I blew it. Well, some guys have all the luck... Me, I always love you since day one.
So bebe, tell me the formula to win your heart for the rest of your life. How do I tickle your fancy?

So, Sarah...  That is the nature of the relationship.  It is a very sad position to be in.
