So I have to say I hurt everywhere. I woke up this morning and took Master Brinker's advice and did a set of pushups when I hit the floor. But man were they hard! I remember last time I did the UBBT I hurt for the first 2 weeks.
The pushups were especially hard today because of my shoulder/arm/chest injury. I'm trying to get it back into shape so I had to space my sets out quite a bit today. But I managed to do over 200 today which is a good start.
Oddly enough I'm having a hard time with the acts of kindness. I feel like a jerk when I count giving the cat a treat as an act of kindness. I'm trying to think back through the day to what I did. I did hold the door for someone...that must count. I'm definitely going to have to try and keep this one in the front of my mind. I think this one is hard because it seems so easy when you first think about it. But it's hard when you have to start looking at your behaviour. I've already realized that I've missed some opportunities to be kind today. I should have let that car in front of me!
I still have to walk the dog and do some tai chi, but I'm almost done. And no t.v. for a second day. I've noticed a few extra minutes here and there since I wasn't being distracted by the television. But I do miss it. I like watching t.v. because it makes me feel connected to the world. I can watch the news, watch the latest show and talk about it with others. I think that's what I'm going to find difficult about the no t.v.. But I think I'll be able to better manage my time which is important and I'll have to find new ways to stay connected. Thank goodness for the internet!
So...lastly, what did I eat today? I ate 1 bran muffin, 2 pieces of peanut butter and honey toast, a roast beef and cheese sandwich, a banana, an orange and a bowl of stew with two pieces of buttered bread. I drank a pot of coffee and 6 glasses of water. 31 days no fast food.
I'm trying to change my diet for the better and when I was making up my requirements Master Binker suggested I blog every day so that people know what I'm eating. It's a lot harder to sneak a burger when you have to tell everyone about it. So far so good.

For the diet, you have a couple of very good resources to tap in to. :)
Absolutely count giving the cat a treat as an act of kindness. There are no rules that say acts of kindness are strictly for the humans. Kindness is kindness regardless of species. Don't forget the kindness that you do for yourself too.
