Day #19 weigh-in: 120.0, down .8 pound from yesterday and 3.4 pounds from Day #1. Basal temp: 96.34. The surf was too cold for swimming, so I spend the morning reading books in the shade on the beach. Heavenly!
Reminder: Our goal is to consume as close to 1000 calories as possible each day of this 28-day diet, while maintaining the high nutrition and 80% alkaline/20% acid ratio of our OsteoDiet. At the end of the 28 days, we’ll determine our Metabolic Function Index, a measure of our metabolic rate, using the tables in Dr. Sanford Siegal’s book, Is Your Thyroid Making You Fat?.
