WOW! 1 day done…. 29 more to go. Now that is my positive thinking. Yesterday I had a salad for lunch. Sitting out in the sun, sweating in the heat with my button done shirt. I really felt like taking my shirt off and laying in the sun, but figured that wasn’t the best thing to do on the edict level. I could just imagine my boss or other people I work with pass me as I laid on a park bench with my pants rolled up and no shirt. If I had Brad Pitt’s abs already I might not mind.

Okay so I finished yesterday off with Tuna and a cucumber salad. Water and decaf tea. One entire day without coffee or alcohol. It has been a long time since I’ve done that, there is no memory of that – all those days have been washed away. So onward and upward. I met with a friend after work and walked through central park. It’s amazing how active the park is when the weather gets warm, people emerge, they appear out of no where and clog the green veins of the city. Bikers, runners, soccer players and all the people who have shrunken dogs. I find it quiet humorous at the sizes of the New York City K-9, its a city of toy dogs.

This morning is day 2. My legs are burning from yesterdays running and the two mile walk home. I did some stretching and ab workout this morning for about 20 minutes. I can feel my belly, but it still looks like an over-stuffed teddy bear. As I listen to Nirvana “Rape Me” I feel much better. I don’t need no coffee just some grundge music blasting in my ears as I work – modern day to ‘whistle as you work’. This morning I consumed a spinach omelet and a V-8. The no coffee isn’t as bad as I thought it would be, however, yesterday at my 3 O’clock low all i thought about was a Grande-Vanilla-Skim-Latte. Hmmmm I shouldn’t of wrote that, my mind is back to the starbucked fix.

I do feel like I have energy, not too much more. I’m not expecting much for the second day, but we live in a word of instant gratification. Why can’t our bodies work in the same respect as the speed of business, the speed of the internet, the speed of the city that never sleeps. I need a full upgrade to the 21st century body.
