Finally, a full day at home

     It has been non-stop since I got back from Mongolia. First, I had to move. I had three weeks before I had to return the apartment. I moved several boxes a day. Then my father came to help. While he was here, we had to drive to Kochi, which took three days. I drove 12 hours each way. Then it was moving week for both me and my cousins. A day before we actually moved the last of the furniture, my cousins got a phone call. It was dreadful news. Their father had passed away due to his illness. As soon as we finished moving, or more like shoving things into the house, they had to prepare to go back to Mongolia for the funeral. That week was horrible.      Then it was time to look for a parking spot for the car. The house comes with a parking spot, but we have two cars, so we needed to find a spot for the second car. It was a stressful week right after my cousins had left for Mongolia, because I had to park the car at the coin parking since my cousin hadn’t f...

Going out is a hassle.

 Today, I had a dental appointment. Going out in this heat, I didn't want to but I had to.  As soon as I open the door and step out, the humidity and the heat hit me. I immediately start sweating, and I can feel that my cap is getting wet. I was worried about my body because my stomach was weird last night which made me vomit.  Then as soon as you step into a carriage of the train, it is cold. I felt cold. The extremes of hot and cold affect my body. It sounds weird, but I usually get cold during the summer in Japan because of this.  My dentist got a new chair, and it looked very fancy. She told me that I need a small-headed toothbrush for my molars because my Oral-B head is not small enough to reach back there. So, I got one. On the way home, I stopped by the supermarket. Purchased avocados to make a toast. It was yum.  Right now, I am sitting and finishing my last assignments of a course I am taking online, and sweating.  Oh, I restarted my fasting and di...

2024.12.02: Day maybe 39

     Well, it is officially Christmas month.     I checked my blood glucose level this morning, it is within the normal range.      I started to rewatch Dr. Mindy Pelz. I love how she describes fasting and food. I stumbled upon Glucose Revolution . Dr.  Jessie Inchauspé explains how glucose works and when to eat.     Oh, I made this for my friend's daughter.     It is magnetic seasons. She can place the flowers, leaves and snow on the background. Hoping that she will like it and use it. I think that is it for now. See you in the next one.

2024.10.07: Day 9

     So, I weighed myself this morning. I have lost 3.5 kilograms this week. However, my blood glucose level was higher. Well, I contribute that for bread with jam. Then I tried some of my clothes and they are starting to get loose. In this case, "loose" is a tiny bit of room.         Then, I had to leave for my x-ray appointment and physical therapy. I walked so much. I was so thankful that I was not in so much pain. It hurts sometimes but it doesn't last long.         I had another bread with jam before 3pm. I realized that I don' feel hunger after 3 pm. I think my body is getting used to it. Now, I can vary my fasting durations. There are specifics that I forgot. I read them in "Fast Like a Girl" by Dr. Mindy Pelz. I loved the book and learned so much. Also, she has tons of informative videos on her YouTube channel.         That is it for today. See you.
