Weight

"I don't know what the freak, freak is happening… old-age, or older-age rather, but I'm ballooning. I won'’t disclose me my exact weight, but it'’s significantly more robust that it has been in the last eight years since I started low-carbing it. For no reason my middle is mui grande and I've been only slightly eating less low-carb lately. I think I may have ruined my body's ability to make use of the food I eat. Any amount of carbs, my body doesn'’t know what to do with it, and it immediately stores it as fat. This may be OK if I keep my carb-intake low for the rest of my life, but what about the long-term health implications? I hear I can ruin my kidneys of I keep eating so much protein etc. I'’ve pretty much written that one off because I think I would have seen signs of kidney trouble by now after 8 years of eating low-carb. But I guess those effects are latent and I wonÂ’t have viable kidneys when I'm 80 years old or something. Also, I'’m missing out on variety of food on my life which doesn't weigh too heavily, but I like sweets (obviously, that'’s why I needed to go on a diet in the first place), in small quantities that is every once in a while, and actually whenever I get my hands on some I DO over do it. I have also been contemplating doing more aerobic exercise along with my weight training to burn more calories and fat while I build muscle which is also contributing to my '‘bulkiness'’."

That was a couple months ago and now I'm into Phase 3 of a workout I got from MensHealth.com. It has really worked for me. I look better and feel better in just 3 months. Just about every part of me has expanded in a good way. The total workout is 10 phases and exercises are numerous, working every muscle group. I'm getting great results. I'm definitely sticking with this till the end of all phases, and I know I will lookand feel better about myself for it.

I'm not sure if having healthy kidneys and eating too much protein is necessarily bad for you. I can tell you that after having undetected high blood pressure for a while, my kidneys are not functioning as they should be. I've had to cut down on my protein intake because of that. I do know too much protein makes your kidneys work harder. Good luck with your diet.

Fake feelings and such

 Getting old is getting old—the journey to a realm of limited possibilities, new possibilities, and lost chances. I don't want to stay in bed all day—that's not me. I want to keep going, growing, evolving, and not waiting for anyone's permission. In the back of my mind, I wait for permission, but in the front of my mind, I know that is not the way I want to be.

Shake shake shake Sonora,

How many times can you die? Try it and let me know. Count the ways of letting yourself go into a space of emptiness. Let all of yourself go and linger in the void. The void is not what it used to be, emptiness, liminal spaces, thoughtlessness. It’s now a place free of acquaintances, responsibility, purchases, social medias begging for your posts and content. The void is now a safe place of free-thought and free will to be yourself away from opinions and conformity. Die there and be free. Be brave and cut your ties, your ropes and chains. Die there and walk away from it all, all the expectations and illusions of fashion and consumerism. Let those trapped call you dead and forgotten. You’re free.

Aaahhh. Kentucky

Middle of nowhere Kentucky. Small clinic amongst the whisky and bourbon distilleries. Beautiful land, rolling hills, faint smell of smoked barrels and grains. Where America was fought for over slavery and freedom.
