The intermittent fasting by starting my day with the bulletproof coffee seems to be making a big difference on the scale. And it also seems to be helping me have a higher level of energy, and more stable energy level through the day as well. My husband is now hooked on the coffee as well. He decided to give it a try on Tuesday, and has opted for it every morning since. :) He might be able to lose about 10 to 15 pounds, but not really any more than that...so he is not doing it for the weight loss. Rather, he likes how he feels when he starts his morning with it.
My daughter is off to "skid school" this morning. We had our other daughter go when she was learning to drive as well. They have race car drivers, and cops teach the class, at an old airfield base. The students use their cars, and learn about how to handle a car most effectively in emergency situations, and the dangers of distracted driving, and of tailgating. It really is a terrific course that teaches the "real" driving skills that you can't effectively learn in driver's ed. I made my husband go with her, because I think he will pick up a few things...as I did!
I am grateful for:
my creative spirit
my sense of experimentation with my diet...continually tweaking and adjusting to get the results I want.
That my family is happy and healthy.
My husband's new job which should create more and better opportunities for him.
the rain!
my CSA...and all the great food I pick up each week.
my FS buddies, and their inspiration and humor.
