pfft

CT scan coming up for my kidney...I am getting tired of my doctor. I will tell her so when I see her on Friday. Frankly if the next time she calls me and doesn't say, "Hey mike, go have a couple of english ales on me", I am not gonna take her call.

Well technically I have to if I want to hear what she says...*sigh*

not much

2 more pounds gone.

I make a good Chicken Curry Salad...really.

Liver ultrasound tomorrow morning.

I still won't eat carrots as a snack. Oh and green tea Mio is great in bubble water made with my Soda Stream.

And now what is truly important...Mass Effect 3 will be on my doorstep next Tuesday. Take THAT dietetic no carb no meat no beer food diet shit! Femshep is back and ready to kick butt.

Better

6 pounds dropped
BP is now 145/98- about half of what it was last week hahaa....It seems I need to be at 120/80 but I will call this a win. Got my Fish Oil pills for my cholesterol for now. Liver ultrasound next Tuesday, BP check back with the Doc on Friday and I can have 35 grams of carbs PER MEAL!!! Per meal???!!! Holy shit that is like triple of what I have been doing.

I told the kid by summer I am gonna be driving around in the Jeep without my shirt on. She said I was gross.


SWTOR- AH'd a ton of my old mats that I no longer need for crafting. Hoping to have a good influx of cash when I log on tointe...I am around 100K credits short of what I need to train for my new speeder and buy it as well. It would be sweet if I can grab it this weekend.

Secret World. June. Yup, I am in. Too many good things being said about it.

Oh look, snack time...green tea and a pear. fml. Carry on.

really

So I have to say that I am truly excited about my doctor visit tomorrow. I want to see if 10 days of DIET FROM HELL AND LAND OF NO BEER has made any noticeable changes.

Plus, Mass Effect 3 is really falling from the skies. Nothing close to me yet but there is still hope!

Cool

My weight has gone down every day since I started eating this evil diet. Corn on the cob with fake butter. Yeah that is some livin'. Oh and wtf, every commercial on TV is for food- marrybacon.com- you can blow me. It looks like a really good burger though. Burger and a nice English ale fermented in an oak cask-food given to humans by the gods of goodness and taken away by the doctor of evil. fml

Just short of 39 on my Smuggler. Sitting on 140K credits. At 40 I need 240K credits to train for my new speeder. This is gonna be a tough one.

Oh look, almost time for my plum snack- yeah this is what I have come to.

Bit of a change

I need a place to enter my lifestyle changes so I can kinda track my progress and talk about games and such so now I have more to say.

Nutshell at this point- started weight at 270 but that was with clothes and after lunch on the Doc's scale. Today in the morning, I was 253.7. I am thinking that my initial weight in the morning was probably closer to 263ish and I think our scale is a bit low so lets be not kind and say 5 pounds down...in 5 frigging days. Yeah you get that if you cut out beer, bread, cheese, meat, carbs, cholesterol, and only eat boneless skinless chicken, turkey, fruit, grilled veggies and smoothies with a bit of organic non-fat yogurt and fruit. Oh don't forget the soy milk, the drink of the WEAK!! Yeah this is a lot of BS- but, when your blood pressure is so high the doctor is convinced you are having a heart attack, and you are trying to tell here that you feel fine...well.

So, currently on BP medicine and then this friday I go in to check it- I know it will continue but then I will probably start my cholesterol medicine. I will probably take something for diabetes too but the think is, if I drop say 50 pounds (shit that is a lot) or more, I have a feeling and so does the doc, that many of my issues will either go away or lessen tremendously. Hopefully the ultrasound of my liver goes well---LOL I feel like and old man. All I can say is after this I BETTER get into Comic-Con this year.

Ok there, that part is out of the way.

Mass Effect demo. WTF is wrong with me. I fired up the multi-player. Got in a game. Died in the forest 3 seconds and the match was over. I turned it off. Went back to my computer, fired up SWTOR and after playing my Jedi a bit, I returned to my Smuggler with renewed anticipation of hitting 50. Sadly though, I am sitting at 39.7 and I and still 100K short of my level 40 speeder training and then obviously 25k short of getting the speeder after I am trained to ride it. *sigh* What I need to do is stop dying while questing-the repair bills are killing me- heh.

So great week

The good news is that my "exercise" this weekend will consist of Mass Effect 3 multi-player demo. I am not going to look at the single player game- I don't want spoilers, I want the game. And I hope that Amazon does get some CE's in before it ships.

The bad- man, blood pressure medicine, cholesterol medication, diabetes diet, no cholesterol diet, no fat diet, no beer, no rum, no meat, no milk or cheese...shit. So far it has been 2 days of grilled skinless chicken (there are marinades and spices that will make this very good btw), grilled veggies and brown rice. I have some sort of cherrios cereal, egg beaters and soy milk for breakfast now. The goal is lower all the bad shit and lose a pound a week.

Let's see how this all goes.

So

the big physical today

Yeah, not totally looking forward to this.

I have a feeling I will have some copay's coming up at the pharmacy. *sigh* Good thing beer is the panacea for everything or I think I would be screwed.

gamin

Mass Effect 3 is officially preordered. Leveling is still going very slowly - yeah that's cool but man everyone is hitting 50 but me. Plus I keep thinking that I want to play my Jedi and not my Smuggler- eh...so much to do. Plus the b'day is coming- SR The Third is featured prominently on a list somewhere although if there IS a picture of a certain device on the front, I don't really see my mother-in- law grabbing that for me...heh.

Skyrim...need some Skyrim

Costume?

So, if I DO go to Comic Con, is this the outfit to wear?

repairs need to be done

Looks like my blog rss feeds are not doing much.

SWTOR-still going but ME3 is getting closer.

Oh and wow, what a hugely lame group of Superbowl commercials. Save a few. At least our food was good.
