J-Day - The 135th Day

Prosciutto & Goat Cheese Tomato Islands

Dear Ladies and Gents,

Several months ago one of our fellow LC menu bloggers (Vadim) made the outrageous suggestion that I should be a guest on Jimmy Moore's podcast show.

If you know Vadim, you know that he's got a heart of gold. I naturally appreciated his vote of confidence but his idea seemed extremely far-fetched. My reservations didn't dissuade Mr. V however. He went on to present my case directly to Jimmy. Soon after, much to my surprise, I received an e-mail from Mr. Moore himself. He actually wanted to have me as a guest on his program! Crazy!

The interview that's posted as today's podcast is the result of these wacky and unexpected turn of events. Please keep in mind that our chat was conducted back in January. That may be reflected in some of my statements (about weight, my exercise routine, etc.). To be honest, I was talking to Jimmy for nearly 50 minutes and I don't recall everything that we discussed. I just know that I had a good time and that Jimmy treated me with the utmost kindness and respect.

I also want to take this opportunity to share with you all another project that I've been working on for the past several months. It's a natural health website that I'm a partner/writer on. It mainly deals with issues relating to alternative and integrative medicine but it also reflects the dietary path I've chosen to follow. The name of that site is: HealthyFellow. I invite you all to visit any time and feel free to participate in any way that you'd like.

Update: Exercise Stats - Time: 65 minutes. Distance: 3.79 miles. Speed: 3.0 - 4.0. Incline: 3.0 - 5.0. Warm Up & Cool Down: Walking to and from the gym.

Finally, today is my typical "weigh in" day. So without further delay, here are my stats:
