Observations and opinions
- Working at my desk on my husband's expenses, the never-ending papers from kids classrooms, and various piles of stuff does NOT burn many calories at all, as confirmed by my bodybugg yesterday.
- I love the idea of organic, vegetarian, chemical-free everything. But I also love Diet Mountain Dew, lots of caffeine, and artificial citrus scents, a la AirWick Sparkling Citrus plug-ins.
- Staying at home and getting a little bored, but not falling into the "my life is boring and I'm depressed" mindset is an awesome way to get lots and lots of the little stuff done.
- Sometimes (like right now) living in boyland is tough. Sometimes (like most of the time) it's delightful. What am I going to do about it? In a few minutes, Tim and I are heading to Costco, like everyone else in Placer County does on a Sunday afternoon.
- I'm really really happy the school lockdowns are over now that the man making the threats was apprehended. Turns out that the worst of it was Thursday, when coincidentally, I was at the elementary school from 11:00 till 2:20. I feel relieved to have been with one of my kids that day, even though I didn't know what was going on at the time.
- Lots of my on-line friends are using Tony of DreamBodies for on-line training, and are getting wonderful results. He has most of them drink an apple cider vinegar and lemon juice shot several times a day. I think (just my opinion) that the benefit of the acv/lj concoction is that it reminds you that you are on a program and helps you to stay on track. I'd be surprised if it actually has fat-burning properties. But (true confession) I occasionally mix myself the acv/lj concoction, just in case it really does do something magical!
- Next time I write, pictures!

Lemon Juice is just Citric Acid.
Seems to be a preferred ingredient in designer fatburning products.
I'll make no secret of the fact, that Fat burners / detox plans in my opinon, are rubbish.
A good diet, and training regime can give you what you want, without stimluents.
Nobody, not even people with Heart problems, or food related conditions like Coeliacs, should be non-responders to diet and training.
You're doing brilliantly, and that's not even in doubt for a second.
You should be very proud, os well done and GOOD LUCK.

Caffeine, if used judiciously (don't tank up on it everyday), will improve your performance in endurance events. You'll want to use it for your upcoming half-marathon. It is magical stuff when you do it right.
