The desert trip was a success in more ways than one. I took limited food which was mostly fruit. I road the wheeler on one of the roughest routes in the state, Devils Racetrack, what a workout. Two of the three days I did my Couch to 5k runs. The weather was perfect being in the low 70's. The last two run of week 4 was for 1.93 and 2.01 miles. Not much in mileage, but I am doing the best I can that my body will allow. The swell in the hands and over all pain is better than I ever expected. I don't want to get my hope up but the eating is all I have changed. With no wheat, no dairy, no corn and no sugar except the sugar substitutes in the whey protein just might be the answer. I don't know. It is hard for me to eat this way but the alternative is taking all of the meds that cost a fortune and are so unnatural. I feel better eating this way. I was 233.2 on 4/1 and today the 30th I am 222.4 for a loss of 10.8 pounds. Having lost 20.8 pounds from the start of the year is making me feel so much better. Running is becoming easier but I am still struggling with my wind. I will overcome this and I will be back soon. Never give up on making change that improve your body. Trying different approaches with the alternative medicines is helping.
