Back to Reality

Posted by todd @ 10:26 AM, Wednesday Nov 26th, 2008

It has certainly been awhile since I wrote anything here, which makes no difference as no one reads it, but I think this illustrates an important point. If you go back and look at many of my posts I make commitments to do such and such every day or every morning or for a [...]

Check-Up

Posted by todd @ 10:22 PM, Monday Aug 11th, 2008

It’s now time to revisit my 2008 goals I so ambitiously set last December. We’re now more than halfway through the year with only 5 months left, and as I peruse the list I see some goals that certainly will be difficult to complete in the rest of the time allotted. Fortunately I [...]

Mass Gain Phase

Posted by todd @ 5:18 PM, Monday Apr 7th, 2008

After being sick a couple weeks ago I lost some weight, but I’m still somewhere in the 190 range. I’d like to get up over 200 before starting a cutting phase. I know some people don’t like the idea of cutting and bulking, but to me it makes the most sense. Gaining [...]

The Cost of Eating Well

Posted by todd @ 10:36 AM, Thursday Jan 24th, 2008

As I peruse many other sites and forums about how we should be eating, especially those that propose low carbohydrate diets, I find that many people are a little bit concerned with how much it costs to eat the way of our paleolithic ancestors. As a college student I can empathize with these cost [...]

Food Outlook and Menu

Posted by todd @ 6:09 PM, Monday Jan 14th, 2008

Now that I have settled back into college and established somewhat of a routine, I can figure out what I’m going to eat and plan more effectively. I still have a long way to go and would like to find out exactly how much it costs me eating this way compared to other options, [...]

I couldn’t update last night because I didn’t have my computer, but here’s what I had yesterday…
Breakfast – fruit smoothie
Lunch – salad w/ broccoli, nuts, and seeds

7 day trial update

Posted by todd @ 8:10 PM, Monday Jan 7th, 2008

I have cut my finger while cutting a coconut, so I’ll have to keep this short. Yesterday and today I had the same breakfast and lunch, fruit smoothie and salad respectively, with my usual toppings of broccoli, sunflower seeds, and almonds on the salad. I also had one apple each day and snacked [...]

Day 1

Posted by todd @ 12:15 PM, Sunday Jan 6th, 2008

Today is the first day of my 7 day trial of eating just vegetables, fruit, and nuts. Last night for my final meal I had some excellent grouper and a few scallops, so maybe that will last me through the week. I also snacked on some dark chocolate, which I won’t do this [...]

Preparing for 7 day Primal/Vegan Trial

Posted by todd @ 10:05 PM, Friday Jan 4th, 2008

I’ve been gathering food for going back to school and for my 7 day trial of eating just vegetables, fruits and nuts. So basically a vegan diet without grains or any sort of refined carbs and sugar. I imagine I’ll eat pretty much the same types of food at each meal every day, [...]

Intermittent Fasting

Posted by todd @ 7:47 PM, Thursday Jan 3rd, 2008

As I read more on Art De Vany and Mark Sisson’s blog, I continue to encounter a topic called intermittent fasting. All it really is is fasting for a short period of time such as 6pm to noon the next day. The logic behind this is that our ancestors of many thousands of [...]
