Day 30 - Review

How do I Feel?


Still feeling the cold today, although it wasn't as bad as yesterday.  Only one more day of diet (and daily blog posts) after this.  Read on for more details.





Meals for Today:


Breakfast - Cheese Omelet with Bacon



Since this is the only meal that was originally cooked today, it got the honor of the lead picture.  But hey, it's an omelet, a good omelet, but an omelet nonetheless.

Lunch - Leftover Flank Steak Salad



We're trying to clean out all of the leftovers in the refrigerator, so this became today's lunch.  Even rewarmed, the flank steak is still good. 

Dinner - Leftover Chili



Yup, more leftovers.  Don't worry, we have a yet-to-be-made-this-month recipe ready for tomorrow. 

Snacks:


  • 2 manderina
  • apple
  • dark chocolate


Exercise for Today:


I was up and about all day today.  It was very busy so I've already reached the 10,000 step mark at 6:00 PM with 10,829. 

Daily Summary:


Outside of being a bit cold this evening, this hasn't been a bad day.  Busy days make thinking (or not thinking) about food easier to do. I did go to the doctor today and, in addition to my weight loss, both my blood sugar and blood pressure are in really good shape.  I'm still on the blood pressure medicine (but hadn't taken it since I ran out on Saturday) and it doesn't look like he'll put me on diabetes medication for now. 

Stats for Today:


I only lost .3 pounds at the morning weigh-in, but that puts me at 14.9 pounds for the month.  Even at the weight check at the doctor's office, I was near my morning weight.  I'd like to get to 15 pounds by Wednesday morning's weigh-in - the final one for the month - but I'm not going to kill myself to get there.  I think I've had a pretty good month, but would like to finish strong. 
Location: Lynchburg, TN, USA

Corregidor Island, Manila Bay, Philippines

Last March, we took a trip back to the Philippines so my wife could visit her family.  It's been a couple of years since we've had the chance to see them and they hadn't had an opportunity to meet Zachary.  The wife's family lives in a suburb of Manila called Taguig City.  So while on the trip, I took a couple of days to slip away and visit Corregidor Island in Manila Bay. Before we get into the trip, let's look a little at the history of the island.

Jack Daniel Distillery - Lynchburg, TN

This may be an obvious post, given that we live in Lynchburg, but the Jack Daniel Distillery is a neat place to visit.  Holding the distinction as the oldest registered distillery in the United States, is the location where every drop of Jack Daniel whiskey is produced.  The history of the distillery is interesting as well, as Jack Daniel was an actual historic person.  Jasper Newton "Jack" Daniel was born in 1850.  The exact date of his birth is in some dispute. Jack was one of 13 children born to his father Calaway Daniel.  His mother Lucinda Cook Daniel bore 10 of those children prior to her death. Calaway Daniel remarried, but apparently Jack did not like his step-mother.  After his father's death in the Civil War, Jack ran away from home at the age of 7.
