My wife’s favorite flower is the full size, yellow daffodil. She likes the mini’s and the whites, too, but her preference is for the full size, yellow. We look forward to their emergence every January / February as they bring with them the start of a new year and the approaching end of Winter. | |
But the yellow blossoms fade and then wither… And then, usually towards the end of March we start to see the sprouts of the California Poppy!! A few weeks later… Blossoms! | |
Granted, we only have ours as a bit of trim at the top of the front garden. Some of our neighbors have their whole front yards strewn with bright orange and green! And so, walking around the neighborhood in the bright California morning sunshine, we enjoy the month of April… | |

Day 7 / Week 1 – Down 1lb (Down 7lbs & 1.5in To Date)
Posted in Diets, General Comments, Health, Juice/Blend Fasting, Walking, tagged 2023 Day 7 (365), 2023 Week 1 (365), Bananas, Beats Per Minute, Bloat, BPM, Celery, Diet, Fasting, Fluid Retention, General Comments, Health, Heart Rate, HR, Juicing, Naked "Green Machine" Drink, Shiva, Spinach, V8 Juice, Walking, Water Pills, White Onion on August 26, 2023| Leave a Comment »
It’s the end of Day 7 of my current “Juice / Blend” fast. …Early evening. | |
Diet: I woke up this morning feeling terrific! No bloat anywhere as near as I can tell (feel). I’ve skipped the water pill again today. I made up the “swamp-juice” for the next couple of days: small banana (4), spinach (2), celery (2), white onion (1), apple juice 128fl oz, V8 (low sodium) 46fl oz, V8 – Strawberry / banana 46fl oz, Naked “Green Machine” 64fl oz and approximately 48oz of ice cubes. | |
A lot more energy today. I’ve definitely started the “oily” skin transition between the “start” and “normal” period fast. From prior fasts, this transition can last from three to five days. After that, my skin should feel smooth without the “oily” sensation. It’s hard to describe. …Moist without being wet. A bit like you’ve just come out of the shower and you’ve toweled off, but you’re not 100% dry. | |
Shiva’s walk was mostly uneventful… Just a short walk around the corner and back home. She was bouncing / dancing, waiting to get the leash on and didn’t seem overly tired at the end. She stumbled three times, though. Once badly. I’m still carrying the lifting strap in case she goes down and can’t get back to her feet on her own. | |
I did my two laps (walking) around the block after we walked Shiva. My heart rate was higher on the max rate, the average and the duration of high. Today, it was 114bpm average (30bpm higher than yesterday) and a 152 max bpm (5bpm higher than yesterday). Not great news, but I didn’t feel bad (at all) during the walk. I still want to target an increase to 3 laps on Monday, but now I think I have to play it by ear and see how I am tomorrow (Sunday). | |
Day 7 : End of Week 1 – weight 365lbs (down 1lbs, down 7lbs total); today’s (muffin) waist 58 inches (down .5in, down 1.5in total). | |

Day 6 – Down 4lbs (Down 6lbs & 1in To Date)

It’s the end of Day 6 of my current “Juice / Blend” fast. Posting as I watch the 49er pre-season game. | |
Health: I got the results from the aborted continuous heart rate monitor. It was “normal”. I’m allergic to some of the glue used on medical tape / patches, so I wasn’t able to wear the monitor device for the full week. I only had it on for about 11 hours, before I had to remove it (due to blistering). | |
Diet: I woke up this morning feeling good. Yesterday’s bloating is gone. I passed another couple of small kidney grains this early afternoon. Since I lost the weight / fluid, I’ve skipped the water pill again today. | |
It feels like I’m through the worst of the “start of fast” period. Still tire quickly, but as of today it feels like the days of intense tiredness are gone. I’ve started the “oily” skin transition between the “start” and “normal” periods which I didn’t feel I’d had yet. Better late than never… | |
Shiva’s walk was uneventful… Just a short walk around the corner and back home. She was bouncing waiting to get the leash on and didn’t seem overly tired at the end. | |
I did my two laps (walking) around the block after we walked Shiva. My HR had one blip / crest at 147bpm after Shiva’s walk. My heart rate was higher on the max rate, but lower on the average and the duration of high. Today, it was 82 bpm average and a 147 max bpm. The average is now back to the first two days of the fast and down 10bpm from yesterday’s average, although 20+bpm (over yesterday’s) for the Max HR during the walk. Still targeting an increase to 3 laps on Monday… | |
Day 6 – weight 366lbs (down 4lbs, down 6lbs total); today’s (muffin) waist 58.5 inches (down 0in, down 1in total). | |

Day 5 – Bounce: Up 3lbs (Down 2lbs To Date)
Posted in Diets, Health, Juice/Blend Fasting, Walking, tagged 2023 Day 5 (370), Beats Per Minute, Bloat, BPM, Diet, Fasting, Fluid Retention, Health, Heart Rate, HR, Juicing, Shiva, Walking, Water Pills on August 24, 2023| Leave a Comment »
It’s the middle of Day 5 of my current “Juice / Blend” fast. Again, I feel okay as far as finishing the day, so I’m not waiting until the end of day to post. | |
Health: I got my results back from my heart ultrasound (on Tuesday): slightly enlarged right ventricle, but not changed since 2017. Enlarged right ventricles are typically the result of “prolonged” high blood pressure. Other than that, everything’s good (well, “normal range” anyway). | |
Diet: I woke up this morning feeling good but bloated. My lats, shoulders and biceps felt pumped as if I’d had just finished a workout. (I hadn’t.) As of now (3:30pm), my lats are the only thing which still feel bloated and them, only slightly. I passed a couple of small kidney grains this morning and that may explain the weight increase this morning. I’ll have a better idea if I’m losing weight again tomorrow. If I gain or stay the same, I’ll have to go back on my water pill. I stopped it on Day 1 to see if the fast would effect my water / fluid retention. I feel it (fasting) has helped me to not retain fluids in the past, so this is just a bit of an “uncontrolled” test. | |
I still can’t say I’m through the worst of the “start of fast” period. From experience, it takes (me) about three days of intense tiredness before I can settle into the juice / blend fast. So, I should be done with the initial period by now. The reality is “not so much” this time. I’m still VERY tired. I still lack energy and am very sleepy. There is also an “oily” skin transition between the “start” and “normal” periods which I don’t feel I’ve had yet. | |
Shiva’s walk was uneventful… Just a short walk around the corner and back home. | |
I did two laps (walking) around the block this morning after we walked Shiva. My HR had two blips / crests up to 123bpm during Shiva’s walk. It fell sharply after I dropped off Hil and Shiva. My heart rate was higher yesterday. Today, it was 93 bpm average and a 123 max bpm. This is now back to the first two days of the fast and again down 10bpm from yesterday’s average and 30bpm for the Max HR during the walk. If my HR stays down, I’ll try to increase to 3 laps on Monday… | |
Day 5 – weight 370lbs (up 3lbs, down 2lbs total); today’s (muffin) waist 58.5 inches (down .5in, down 1in total). | |

Day 4 – Down 1lb (5 To Date)

It’s the middle of Day 4 of my current “Juice / Blend” fast. I feel ok, so I’m not waiting until the end of day to post. | |
Diet: I am still waking up feeling good to great. Again, my fingers feel thin and my ankles look thinner (to me anyway), although the upper arch on my left foot is raised. I have the start of gout related arthritis there. I finally have a slight decrease on waist measurement. Not much, but better than nothing and I definitely feel smaller. | |
I did two laps (walking) around the block this morning after we did a short walk with Shiva. My HR was sub-110s during Shiva’s walk. It went higher after I dropped off Hil and Shiva. My heart rate was much higher yesterday – 120’s bpm for most of first and second lap and 150’s bpm for the final third of the second lap. Today, it was 114 bpm average and a 133 max bpm. I’ll have to wait a few days to see if any pattern is emerging… | |
Shiva is still looking forward to her morning walk, but it’s apparent she doesn’t have the will to go very far. The spirit is willing, but the flesh is getting older and weaker… | |
I hope I’m through the worst of the “start of fast” period. From my experience, it takes (me) about three days of intense tiredness before I can settle into the juice / blend fast. After that, I’m substantially less tired, but as much as I feel full of energy, it’s really only a few minutes of energy. This can go on for a while (several weeks). Eventually, I’ll come to a balance and be less tired and start to pick up more stamina. That’s my experience anyway… | |
Hil went to the supermarket and got me stocked up on spinach and celery for my juice / blend. I’ll make the new batch this evening or in the morning. It should be enough to get me through the rest of the week. These first few days, I’ve been getting by with frozen smoothie blend packets from Costco. I don’t usually do this, but I wanted to get into the fast with a minimum of hassle. From now on, it’ll be mostly blended veggies and fruit juice. What I call “swamp juice” – because it looks like swamp water. LoL! | |
Day 4 – weight 367lbs (down 1lb, 5lbs total); today’s (muffin) waist 59 inches (down .5in). | |

Day 3 – Walking BPM Not Good

It’s night at the end of Day 3 of my current “Juice” fast. | |
(Same as yesterday…) No real diet news to report… I woke feeling even healthier after two days / nights of juicing. My fingers feel thinner and my ankles look thinner (to me anyway). No change on waist measurement, but I definitely feel lighter and better. | |
I did two laps (walking) around the block this morning after we did a short walk with Shiva. My HR was 110s during Shiva’s walk. It went higher after I dropped off Hil and Shiva. My heart rate was much higher than the last two days (sub-90s) – 120’s bpm for most of first and second lap and 150’s bpm for the final third of the second lap. Some shortness of breath, some chest tightness and some sweating. | |
Good news is that Shiva jumped to her feet this morning anxious to go for the walk and she didn’t stumble during the walk – but she did limp. Again, we only took her to the corner and back (maybe 100yds total). | |
I went to the hospital for another round of chest ultrasounds of my heart. It took a bit longer than normal because they had to give me an IV of contrast fluid. What should have been about 45minutes ended up closer to 90minutes. The tech said I’ll get the results online in a couple of days. | |
Day 3 – weight 368lbs; today’s (muffin) waist 59.5 inches. | |

Posted in Diets, Health, Juice/Blend Fasting, Walking, tagged 2023 Day 2 (370), Diet, Fasting, Health, Juicing, Shiva, Walking on August 21, 2023| Leave a Comment »
It’s evening on the end of Day 2 of my latest “Juice” fasting. | |
No real diet news to report… I feel a bit healthier even if it’s just after one day of juicing. It’s interesting how quickly one (well, me anyway) can start to “feel” healthier inside. I know it’s probably more psychological than real, but it still feels good. The sun’s a little brighter and the air smells a little cleaner. LoL! | |
I did two laps (walking) around the block this evening (5pm) and I just had a brief blip in my heart rate up to 93bpm. Most of the walk was sub-85bpm. A little chest tightness and shortness of breath, but every time I felt that way, my pulse was in the low 80’s. It felt strange walking in the evening sun instead of in the morning as we usually do. | |
The big thing on the near horizon is our dog (Shiva) is starting to go downhill. She’s beginning to have serious problems getting to her feet and we’ve had to halt her morning walks around the block. Actually, we gave that up several weeks ago and she’s only been able to handle going around the corner (and a bit), before coming back home. She’s still “game”. She wants to go for the walk and she struggles to a sitting position when she hears us jiggle the lead, but her back legs are both splayed outwards… I have to use a lifting strap to boost her to her feet and she’s “mostly” okay as long as the surface isn’t too slippery. We went out and bought some runners and spot rugs to help her and they do seem to be working for her. We also have been putting her “booties” on her, which seem to helping her walk on our tile and wood floors. She’s stumbles walking with and without her shoes, but with them, her rear legs aren’t sliding when she stands still. | |
It’s hard deciding when’s the right time… She’s still eating most meals and drinking and some times she really shows interest… Other times she’s just panting and / or flat on her side sleeping. I told Hil I won’t see her (Shiva) in pain. Hil agreed, but losing Shiva will be very hard on both of us. | |

Each of us can maintain an effort level of about half our maximum perceived effort almost indefinitely, regardless of what that perceived effort level is. We may not be able to maintain it continuously, but with a few exceptions, most of us can move our bodies at about half of our perceived maximum for as long as we want. | |
