I seem to be getting a lot more mentions on twitter recently. Replying to popular tweeters seems to be the best way to get these. I'm following mostly Scott Adams and Stefan Molyneux but you can see my main list at http://87sc.com
I've tweeted 11 straight days about my ExcelDiet.com, The idea is for public expression of my weight loss ot help me lose weight.
Health
- Forgetting to take my vitamins
- Metformin didn't work
- Trying to lose 10 lbs in 10 weeks
- Sitting on exercise ball at work
- Juggled at lunch
- Standing for 10 minutes every hour
- Bought and took PQQ from Vitamin Shoppe $20 from Life Extension tweet
- Blood pressure = 117/84
- heart rate = 68
- The LifeExtension.com website referred to something called The CR Way, which means Calorie Restriction. I want to do some research on this to see if it can help lower my blood sugar
Metformin didn't work
I tried to test the effect of Metformin on me and found it had an insignificant effect. I want to do better more accurate testing to determine what works and what doesn't. This seems to be a theme in my life as in the past I tried to see which trading strategies worked and which didn't.
So one day with Metformin my blood sugar dropped 12 points and one day without it, it dropped 10 points.
Brain Freeze and Cherry Drink lowers Blood Sugar
I'm not sure why but a long walk in the sun + a cherry medium frozen Dunkin Donuts drink + Metformin (I think) caused my blood sugar to reach lows I haven't seen since I started testing.
While I was drinking it I was getting brain and chest freezes that were so painful.
I tested once and got a 63. I was so shocked I tested again and got a 75.
Free Speech
I've watche a few videos with Mike Cernovich and Alex Jones on Free Speech. Mostly on how "they" are trying to silence speech.
I see a tweet from Howard Dean who is a democrat and ran for president a few years back that "Hate speech isn't free speech." I'm not for hate speech but who is to say what is hate speech and what isn't. The most obvious line about free speech is "You can't yell fire in a crowded theatre."
Work
I have a big deadline every 21st of the month as some reports are due. I have to collect PowerPoint slides from 5 different groups and put out 8 separate decks with about 45 - 65 slides. There is a lot of work that goes into producing these documents.
I set a schedule in the beginning of the month and had deadlines on Tuesday and Wednesday that were missing my 3 different groups. Then on the final day a number of slides were missing. In addition people miss the deadline and don't even email me to say "sorry, something came up, yada, yada, yada and I'll get you the slides tomorrow.
I try to publicly shame them by highlighting their tasks in red. I'm not sure if this helps or hurts as it could get someone to make they get me the documents on time or it could piss them off and make sure they get them to me late.
I thought about cc'ing their bosses, maybe having a meeting or even meeting in person. I could talk with their suppliers as one person said technology made a change without notifying them.
One thing that pisses me off at work is seeing that many people have a higher title and work in an office where I have a measly cubicle. This focus gets me angry and bitter. I think the only way to get a better title may be to get a new job. The other thing to do is just focus on doing the best job I can do and let whatever comes my way come.
Reading
I didn't read much this week except for Charles Munger who is Warren Buffett's partner at Berkshire Hathaway and his speech to Harvard on Psychology of Human Misjudgement.
Dog - Lola
She's trying everything this morning to get treats
- Whining
- Crying
- Wagging tail
- Winking at me
Terrorism and islam
I don't hate muslims and not all of them are terrorists, but it's sickening what these people do in the name of islam. Do we want to bring these people here? With their culture that:
- Suppresses free speech
- Encourages violence and death against
- Homosexuals
- People who leave the religion
- People who draw cartoons or criticize their false
prophet
I'm so fed up with hearing about this and their backwards beliefs.
