Understanding the Struggle

Nothing but WATER

So for two days I've had nothing but water to drink...oh yeah, and some coffee:-)  The point is, no soda.  I'm addicted to nothing in my life.  

Peace!

I'm sick

I haven't left the house in four days. Today I thought I would feel much better, but thanks to some medicine (I think) I feel worse.

The good that has come from all of this is that I've spent some time looking at honeymoon sites. I'm tired. Time to rest...again.

Jumping Rope

Last week I purchased a jump rope after watching the preview to the De La Hoya/Mayweather fight. It looked easy and a great way to get in shape. Well, it's not easy, but the getting in shape part is right on.

Next weekend the fight is scheduled for HBO PPV at $50 and I for one will be buying and watching...maybe even jumping a little rope:-)

My new Toothbrush: A Week's Review

So I've had my new Oral-B Triumph toothbrush for about a week now and I must say that I really like it! It takes a minute to get used to the power of the Triumph, though I've never had any electric toothbrush before, but once I got the hang of it my teeth never felt cleaner.

A little tip if you're in the market for a new one...buy it at Amazon.com and you save like $40 and get free shipping. While the shipping was supposed to be 5-9 days, I got my toothbrush in 2 business days.

OK...time to go brush:-D

My new Toothbrush

I just placed the order for my first power toothbrush, the Oral-B Triumph! I'm pretty excited about it. As excited as one can be about brushing the teeth, that is.

Now I just have to wait for it to get here. Hopefully within a week and a few days my teeth will be living the life:-D

Link: The New Oral-B Triumph with Patented Smart Technology has a FlossAction™ head with MicroPulse™ bristles that clean deep between teeth for healthier gums and a healthier mouth.

Formula 50

Today I had the day off, so I went up to the court nice and early and played some basketball with my brother. Following the games I went to the store and tried Vitamin Water for the first time. WOW! I got some of the Formula 50 (I guess it's 50 Cents, the rapper, drink flavor) and it was SO GOOD!!!

I just got back from Target where I bought 36 bottles of the stuff (28 of Formula 50, 8 others to try). I know I go a bit extreme, but I'm telling you the stuff tastes good.

Check it out and go get ya some! Holla at cha boy!:-)

On the courts again:-)

Last night Bob and I went to the local basketball courts and took a few shots. It wasn't long before we were asked to play some 2-on-2. Of course we accepted, even though we haven't played in months. The competition was some newly graduated high school kids.

The first game ended something like 15-4 (we won). We then took on another teammate as did they and won 15-11. We lost the final game but it really didn't matter to me at this point. My knee was hurting and I was a little tired.

It appears that my knee is either messed up or needs some major rest. I haven't done anything on it since I hurt it running a couple of weeks ago. I will give it another week or so and then if nothing is better, I'm headed to the doctor I guess.

PS: The running event has never happened due to my knee. At this point it may not happen for some time. When I'm up to full strength or the knee just doesn't hurt anymore, I'll get back to running.

The more H2o you drink, the better it tastes

No, I didn't go out and get the water described below...yet. The reason I didn't is because I have a filtering system at my house. The water I drink at home will be from there and the water I buy for the road will be the below described.

So I think the more H2O you drink, the better it tastes. Today, thus far, I've had over 3 quarts of water or over 12 cups (8 oz). The water is tasting better and better.

I haven't felt horrible, but I haven't felt great either. Soda, coffee, caffeine, etc. have been running through my system for years and in "the beginning" none of those liquids were here. That probably means that they aren't the best for me either. So back to H2O I go to cleanse the system.

I'll let ya know the progress.

BIOTA Spring Water

I'm going back to drinking more water, for real this time. I'm feeling like an unhealthy dude trapped in a slim dude's body. Not good.

So tomorrow I am picking up some BIOTA Spring Water. Why BIOTA? Well, the bottle decomposes in 12 weeks! That's cool and good for the earth. Thanks Mark Lee for the heads up on this one.

Fries update

I just finished eating the cold McDonald's fries.  Unhealthy...so unhealthy.
