Had a great trip up to the mountains this weekend. Drove my 1200 GS about 100 miles outside of NYC to the little town of Grahmsville, NY. The weather was near perfect leaving the city but became colder the closer I got to my destination. It was snowing by the time I arrived. Thank god I had on my Carhart snowsuit and several other layers of winter gear. I'll take snow over rain any day.
Got to the cabin and immediately went grouse hunting. Then went and checked on a covered bridge that was damaged durring hurricane Irene. The town is working with FEMA to get the damaged areas rebuit. Then went to the town of Rosco for dinner and drinks then slept by the fire in the darknes of the mountains. With no light polution around the stars were as bright as the lights in times square.

I EAT LIKE THIS
I eat a modified Mediterranean/Atkins style diet.
FOR ME a perfect day of eating it would look like this:
6:00am bowl of oatmeal and fruit, no sugar, large green tea
9:00am egg white vegetable omelet w salt and pepper
12:00pm lean turkey meat and cooked green vegetables possibly a baked sweet potato. Multi-vitamin
3:00pm strong coffee and a chocolate chip cookie (this is the modified part but I'm also trying to have some fun and stay human. Besides this should be the last carbs for the day. Only meat, vegetables and water until bed.)
6:00pm green vegetable salad baked or broiled fish or chicken
9:00pm protein shake or fruit or a scoop of peanut butter OR some other healthy snack before getting 8 hours sleep. Sleep is KEY!
I play by the 80:20 rule meaning that I stick to the above 80% of the time.
• buy organic when possible
• keep red meat to a minimum (like once a month)
• learn about the benefits of quinoa and kale
• Buy Dr. Atkins' book on the Atkins diet.
• Buy Bill Philip's book titled Body For Life
Send me any questions you may have!
