I was watching Food Matters on Sunday. It was one of several things I watch that day
including but not limited to Parks and Recreation, Bill and Ted’s Excellent
Adventure, and burn notice. When one of the
speakers started talking about proper hydration techniques, and everyone who
knows me knows I fear dehydration above all ailments. David Wolfe is a bit of an extremist in my
mind, as he is all raw food. I will
admit I can’t get 100% on-board with all raw, all the time. It freaks me out a little. However, that being said some of the things
he had to say really spoke to me. Drink
two liters of water each morning first thing before you have coffee, tea, and
food, whatever. Now I drink a shit load
of H2O. I was up to 7 liters a day. I have cut back to 5 liters b/c I honestly
felt like I was drowning myself at 7. It
just didn’t feel right. The first thing
I was doing before the cold was to down a bottle of water before I got in the
shower. So, watching this cat speak I
was like I can do two liters each morning ain’t no thang. The last two mornings I have adopted it and
I have to tell you I am liking it a lot.
Yes, I pee like a race horse and sometimes the hour long commute is a
stretch. I mean I practically run into
the office and piss like a race horse, but a guy has to do what a guy has to
do. The last two days I have felt really
fucking good. You would have never guess
yesterday was a Monday. I felt great and
energized. Today, I was back at work by
6:45 after leaving at like 9. Coming
back from this cold is taking time. It
really kicked me in the nuts. However, I
am bouncing back. Slowly but surely I am
getting better. I am starting to take
small walks as I can finally breathe again.
I am working with my walking app again.
I mean it got restarted when my phone crashed, so it’s like a brand new
program. I am also back on the smoothies
for breakfast. Getting my kale in! Again, starting all things very slowly but we
are getting back into it. I am even
thinking about challenging myself to out swim myself from last year in Q4. I have not decided that yet. Again we are just taking things slow… however, I do have to run an pee again 2
litros de agua and 3 cups of coffee will do that to a man. This is like my 5th trip… oh well… happy last day of the quarter!!!
