10 K

I went to see a sleep doctor prior to going to the Philippines. He placed me on some test and the result indicated that I have a severe case of apnea. It means that I involuntary stop breathing 15 times/hour on my sleep times. My throat collapses when I'm laying down on my back and air cannot get in, thus the snoring and gasping at night as what my wife complains about.He told me to use a CPAP machine, it forces air in my nose and should "fix" my problem. Before I left his office, he looked at me and told me to also lose 15 lbs. as I am looking pudgy. The nerve of that guy calling me " pudgy".
Eight days in boracay and I've already lost 8 lbs. My pedometer is indicating that I'm averaging 10k a day with my walking around and about.I haven't had a softdrink since I came here and there are no stores that sells chocolate bars. I have been eating a lot of mangoes and drinking lots of water and I'm sweating all the time. This is like being on the "Biggest Loser" campus without working out as hard.
I haven't had a single allergic reactions so far including that of eating uncooked onions which I'm highly allergic to. Really cool.
