Italy day 2

I am officially craving sugar like a maniac.
I have to admit that I have had pasta (delicious delicious tasty tasty pasta mmmm) two days in a row, but other than that I have been eating regularly through the day including breakfast, tons of veggies and protein, and much smaller portions (I'm also starving - FYI)....a huge improvement. Although my hard working athletes can afford to consume some simple carbs, they are all really health conscious of course and I am already being "pushed" into the light  ha.
Another great influence is in the water department...a few skiers took one look at my giant swollen feet and lost their minds (after a few off-side jokes about my swollen appendages). One guy in particular is becoming quite the water-nazi and literally is force-feeding me mid treatment and wont let me get up from meals without consuming his water-quota. We'll see if he can drain these feet. I am trying to help by icing every night...my room has a bidet as most Italian washrooms do (if you don't know what this is  - check out http://www.wikihow.com/Use-a-Bidet) and both nights I have filled it with ice and soaked my little huge feet. Now, just to clarify - I have lined it with a bag both ice baths...lets review that usually they are for soaking genitals and I don't love the idea of my feet soaking where some has soaked their anus. Lined carefully with a bag and purple duct tape it is a convenient and clean place to get these feet on ice!

  1. Thanks to the guys who are making you drink water! A little late at the airport ??!! Hhhmmmm ............ perhaps you deserved snot man! FYI Italians use bidets for feet as well as genitals......... they do get scrubbed (the bidets that is). Keep up the good work and good luck to the team.
