Wednesday Weigh-In 20220801

The brownies that I ate the night before my previous weigh-in made me really sluggish the morning after. It was so bad that I took a sick day off from work. Then on Monday I collapsed into bed, still clothed, to nap before going to bed. And on Tuesday morning my body temperature was elevated. I usually run cool, but it was as high as 99.9F. I felt woosy, exhausted and had no appetite.

I've been reading Health Via Food, by William Howard Hay, and I got inspired to switch my breakfast from sausage and bottled vegetable to fresh fruit such as an apple or pineapple chunks. I survived, and not only that, I was revived. So for a while I've been eating in very small amounts. This explains my lower weight and waist size.

I'm surprised that my weight and fattiness numbers are lower this week. I'd pigged out on brownies last night. As if the brownies themselves weren't bad enough, I spread Nutella on top and embedded milk chocolate chips in that gooey top layer.

I've been taking a break from daily cholestrol-lowering medication. This is day thirty of my experiment to see if muscle and tendon pain, muscle weakness, fatigue and exercise intolerance is due to the rosuvastatin. My doctor recently doubled the dose, but my numbers didn't improve. Yet I feel even worse than ever, so why should I bother with it? I had an amazing improvement in strength after I discontinnued Vytorin many years ago. At that time, I had been going to a gym regularly. When I stopped that med, I was able to increase the weights on the Nautilis machines with dramatic suddeness. I do feel better now, too. Installing two window air conditioners was nearly effortless, and my back pain (due to muscle weakness) is gone.

In overturning Roe v. Wade, the Supreme Court essentially declared itself incompetent with its statement that the original ruling was “egregiously wrong and on a collision course with the Constitution from the day it was decided.” I wonder what the Supreme Court will say about this in another 50 years.
