Tanks Giving

So I went to Sacramento this Thanksgiving. It was at my brother and sister-in-laws house. Had a ton of fun! The picture you see is what I took of my brother's dog. I wanted to do some animal portraits. Expand my market. The next day, we got to go rock climbing at this place called Pipeworks. I wish there were more places like that in LA or even Visalia. Such a cool place. Its funny because on thanksgiving I started to read this book called Body Type Diet and Lifetime Nutrition Plan by Elliot Abravanel. It talks about why certain diets only work for certain people and their body type. You take a quiz to find out what body type you are and then it tells you what you can or can not eat. I found out I was a Thyroid type and that basically everthing I was eating was the worst thing for my type. It also explained why despite running and working out at least 4 times a week, not one pound was being shed. So now I eat meat at practically every meal, can't snack and my food portions are super small compared to what I was eating. I feel light though and I have noticed that a lot has changed. So far, I wake up so much easier (this morning went on a run at 6:30am), I no longer fart (which those who know me might be in shock over that alone), and surprisingly, I feel like I have more energy despite my strict no caffein, no sugar rules. So today is day 4 of my diet. They say that I will lose 5% of my weight in the first week alone. Pretty crazy! Lets see if I can keep up with it. I figure the diet + working out will shed the pounds off the fastest. I just want to lose at least 20 pounds by Christmas. That way when we have our family get togethers....I don't have to explain how I gained all this weight due to the anti-anxiety medicine I was taking. My body hates me when I take medicine. Seriously.
