 Monday morning. Woke up in calm, peaceful Luleå, not far from the Arctic circle in Sweden.
Yesterday the family of my sons sister had to escape from water flooding their house while  asleep outside Houston, Texas. There are a lot of disasters every day around the world. Far away from our own comfort zone. This time the videos of rescued people, shelters and streets buried in meters of water come close. I can picture one of all the families  that lost everything.


I've got it all. The sun is shining. I have vacation today. I will have lunch with one of my best friends. I'm moving closer to the goals of my life.

The Ninja Diet: quality time with my caique

She is three years old and a caique. Roxy add some special color to my life. To be a parrot she's very tiny but has a huge caractar. She's funny, fast and fit! A great roll model for the Ninja Diet "eat like a bird".

We share the same taste for veggies and fruits.

 

She doesn't mind, her caregivers chicken on the plate.

The best meat when you are on a diet.

I'm planning my next grocery shopping.

Atumn is a great season for vegetables.

The Ninja Diet: great breakfast

The best summer breakfast: oatmeal with fresh raspberries.

The Ninja Diet: Ninja fast food

Green represent relaxation to me. At the moment stress has taken over my life in many ways. Stress is the worse enemy of weight loss. Food can have an calming impact. Stress also reduces the chances to good planning. I'm trying to reflect over my situation and how to stay in the good eating behavior. To have the fridge filled with healthy food and no bad temptations hiding in the cup board are a good start.
Here is a Ninja lunch made of left overs and other fridge findings.

 

Greece meatballs , baba  ganoch,  BBQ sauce and veggies.

The Ninja diet: visible milestone regardless of the fog

Some days are in life are more important than others. The day of the birth of my three sons. Other days you don't realize until a long time later what impact they had on your life.

The 16 of August 2017 I know for sure  was life changing. Despite of the morning fog, the sun was shining at noon and the rain fell all night. I believe in karma. What goes around comes around, one way or another. Positive or negative depending on your action.

The Ninja Diet: weight loss talk at the mall

 

 I get many questions from people who read my blog about my weight loss method.

I ran into Katarina at a store in Luleå. 

While discussing the hot topic a lady broke in with her opinion.

We figured out she was the mother of our sons former teacher.

Helena suggested us to

 diet every second day.

A petite lady telling us she felt fat and never satisfied with her body.

Luckily I have always mentally picture myself as thin,  but surprised when looking in the mirror...

Having this group talk about the blog was great!

It's nice to inspire other people.

Katarina is about to start a week on VLCD.

I wish her good luck!

 

While biking home last night the view of Luleå was beautiful.
