Daily weight from January 1, 2011.

This is the last weight posting before November 14th. Tomorrow is a travel day, and I leave early for the airport... SoI won't be processing my blog until very late (I am scheduled to arrive at LAX at 8:15pm) in the evening. 

For the next 9 days, I will be blogging my food, and leaving off weight and charts. I will probably also have additional commentary on the food and the vacation activities, and maybe even some pics from the trip.

Daily Comment

Yesterday I felt old. That doesn't happen to me often, but yesterday, physically, I felt the myriad tiny pains I pay no attention to, the slowing down of reactions, of thoughts. It just felt 'old' to me. The sad thing was that this was after a reggae rehearsal that was just... brilliant. The drummer and I were really locked in, and both of us were smiling ear-to-ear. When it was over, and I left, I felt old walking up the stairs to my apartment...


I don't often feel this way. 

This evening, I felt a very sharp pain that seemed to be coming from my hip joint. It lasted past until I fell asleep.
