I went home for lunch today. On my way, I was behind a guy whose original style jeep bore a sticker: Kill Your Television. Of course, now I am thinking about, "1984" and, "Brave New World." Great books!
So I am on Day 10 of the Atkins diet and have lost 10 lbs. since last Wednesday. Things are going well. I am still experiencing a decreased appetite. I was at a family dinner 2 nights ago and I had to reject Chocolate Cake and Blackberry Cobbler (which I love!!) Since I am in the Induction Phase, it is more important now than ever that I be disciplined.
When I look back on what I have done in the last year, I am surprised. Feeling powerless about a few things that plague our society, I decided to make changes in my own life that will hopefully have a ripple effect. I'm not much in the mood to explain just what those are but let's look back at what I have done and am doing. (And please remember, this is a journal and will not be widely entertaining.)
6-13-02 Canceled my cable TV I really cannot believe it has been a year. For those who wonder how I could have possibly entertained myself in the last year, please read through my Projects list.
1-1-03 Began my support of PBS/WFYI through donations and volunteering.
1-06-03 I quit smoking. Fantastic decision.
7-23-03 I started to curb my addiction to Carbs and Caffeine.
