My weight is fluctuating so much. When we came back from the beach it went up to 157!!!
I about had a cow.
This morning it is down to 152 still higher than before the weekend. So need to be careful with my food intake. Had one "beer" last night the remaining one. Jeff asked me if I wanted him to get me more, I hesitated and him/hawed then said no. I was happy with that.
Started off the morning with a kale, blueberry, milk, protein powder, tumeric (may decrease inflamation) and maca powder http://www.vegkitchen.com/nutrition/...efits-of-maca/ ) and an indian blend of spices. Good, getting used to these new flavors.

The indian spice mix is called :
Kapha Surya Spice Blend
According to Ayurveda, a balanced diet contains all six tastes, sweet, sour, salty, pungent, bitter, and astringent, at every meal. Surya Spice Blends are delicious mixes of herbs and spices lovingly crafted for you to easily enjoy these balancing flavors in your diet.
Kapha Surya Spice Blend - A delicious spicy blend of superior quality coriander, ginger, mustard, turmeric, cinnamon, and cayenne; designed to invigorate a Kapha mind-body type.
I bought it from the www.chopra.com if anyone is interested in learning about Ayurveda.
These are their recommendations to improve my kapha tendencies:
Body - Take a yoga class to connect to your body and invoke your natural energy
- Perform a vigorous daily self massage with Invigorating herbalized oil
- Take deep breaths throughout the day
- Favor spicy foods with a predominance of pungent, bitter, and astringent tastes
- Walk 5-15 minutes after eating to aid digestion
- Drink Invigorating Tea
- Put your full attention on your meals when eating
Mind- Meditate twice a day to clear the mind and rejuvenate the body
- Wear invigorating fragrances
- Listen to up-beat sounds to invoke your natural energy
- Organize the clutter in your environment – your outer world reflects your inner world
- Awaken at sunrise and create an invigorating morning routine
- Diffuse invigorating fragrances into your environment
- Favor bright, strong, bold colors with vivid shapes and designs
- Look for opportunities to be more spontaneous
- Embrace uncertainty
