On Saturday July 28th, I started my “98% Diet” plan. My starting weight was 193lbs with a body fat % between 24-26% depending which of the two scales I use. The outcome I’m targetting to achieve is to hit a body fat % of 12% or less by August 2008, which would put me at [...]

This morning, around 2:30am I woke up with a bad case of heart-burn. It is only now that I realize that even then my spirit was talking to me in metaphor, for my heart was being set on fire and “heart-burn” seems an appropriate choice for a wake-up call, don’t you think?
