For the past few weeks, I've been using my manual wheelchair, instead of the electric, which immediately made my muscles ache as they had not done much for many years. Yesterday, I decided to start walking again, and it feels great. I'm still ...

31 July 2019 I fasted 24 hours yesterday before eating about 400 calories. I hope to repeat that today, but it would be a first, and my chances are slim based on past performance. However, if you don't try, your hope will die. Everyone can ...

16 June 2019 - Diet Diary - So, of course having been less than 1 lb from my goal this morning, I had to engage in a little self-defeating behavior today and consume around 1500 calories. Wasn't really my intent but a waffle sounded really great ...
