160 lbs
Category: body
Eating more carbs is helping me put on weight. Clearly it was the food group I was lacking in most. Strangely it is addicting. I used to have a protein shake for break (banana, milk + whey protein.) Now I eat a bowl of cereal with milk and honey. Before I would not be hungry till lunch or dinner. Now I snack incessantly during the day.

I just hope I can stop before I become fat and that I didn't open Pandora box.

I never had heartburn again. I think it was from that freakishly sour green apple before bed followed by yoga right after dinnertime the next day.

What do you eat throughout the day? I think you should make your breakfast more balanced - for eg. eat those kashi cereal with 13g of protein per serving or add a hardboiled egg to the breakfast. The idea of introducing carbohydrates to your meal was not only to balance out the excessive amounts of proteins you were consuming but also to make sure that you didn't go hungry and/or empty-stomach for an extended period of time - a factor that increases risk for heartburn.

Summer Cold
Category: health
Yuck, at first I thought it was allergies but now I think I have a cold. It started out with inhaling a bug hukibg at ghr forge followed by being massively allergic to all the perfumes at the concert.

In order to treat it I tried the Netti pot. Usually, I am ok with it, but this time I turned my head near the end and I swear the water came out my eye which was unpleasant. On the other hand clean sinuses feel so nice.

I decided to take nyquil. Hopefully I won't go crazy like (e:tinypliny) did in benedryl, lol.

I looked up mechanisms of benadryl and claritin. I was going to make a post about it but got distracted...

Stuck at Bennette beach
Category: beach
Not us, but everyone else seems to have though parking on the muddy grass was a good idea. The beach was packed like I never saw it and there were multiple tow trucks pulling people out. We ended up leaving and going to Wendy.

Despite what everyone else says I have never been here. It us missing all if the eye candy from Bennette.

This one girl decided to drive straight into a ditch at like a 45� angle. I tried to get a better pic but they were yelling at us.

Paddle Boats
These ones hold four people and a cooler. The only problem is how would we get it to and from the waterfront. Well that and the $500 price tag.

Maybe like how they have the things for boats to go on behind cars they make them for these as well.... Guessing most people who buy these pay to get them delivered and then they stay at that pond or lake or what ever place they are buying them for.....

Seems like a worthwhile investment to me if you are fond of going on the lake and totally affordable for such a nifty thing! Are you sure its $500 and not $5000 or $50K?
tinypliny - 05/30/11 11:23
People just haul on the top of their cars. And that is cheaper than a laptop or even some of the ipads!

Hoak's On Route 5t
Category: food
(e:terry), (e:mike), (e:libertad) and I were searching for a new lunch place today. After like an hour if thinking if somewhere to go we decided RI head out down 5 ans follow the lake. After Mike ans libertads awedul experience at Dug'a Dive last year we decided tto skip it and end up going until we saw Hoak's. I am glad. The food was great. Everything I ate was delicious and we got to sit in the sun, outaide in the lake to eat.

I wish I took a picture of the appetizers. Mushroom capacity stuffed with seafood.

Mike got a grilled shrimp Salad, and libertad and terry at roast need on weck.

I got fried clam strips and fries.
