Filed under: 40 Days
A week ago today I was enjoying a wonderful private screening (free tickets) at the Angelika of Julie and Julia while I gorged myself on all things delicious and bad for you. I also got on our rickety scale and marked myself at 214. Today I’m 209. And my belly feels great.
I can’t stop thinking about movies. I heard the series Band of Brothers was good. I’ve also been wanting to see G.I. Joe but over the past several years I just can’t seem to bring myself to pay $72 at the movie theater when I know my local Blockbuster will hook me up with $1.99 on new releases. Oh – and also the fact that I’m going 40 days without movies. Why again did I agree to that? And why again is it so hard to go without watching anything?
Today for breakfast I kept it simple. Grass-fed beef, eggs, and onions. Lunch was also delicious as I scarfed beef tacos: grass-fed beef browned in tomato paste with sea salt, cracked pepper, and chili powder. Added some organic pintos mashed up with brown rice for some rockin’ tacos. For a snack I had crispy walnuts/almonds/cashews with grapes and cherries.
I went for a power walk with my hottie. Sweated a little. And was thankful I live in an area with huge oak trees that hang into the street and homes that are from a long time ago. The breeze was amazing, and the feel of fall around the corner and sitting by the fire pit made me smile. As a part of the cleanse I’m challenging myself to move more. Its amazing how I can live in a high-paced city and lifestyle but find myself not moving much at all. Why is that?
Finally I washed my hair. And this time with shampoo. That’s right, I’ve been getting into the habit of showering without actually cleaning my hair. Surprisingly my hair looks great and I don’t have to use product. My goal is to only get 1 cut before 2010. I will need to time it perfectly.
