Nuttin’ But Salads N=1 Experiment: Week 11 Summary

Cucumber salad with feta cheese and sautéed chicken

Week 10 was an anomaly due to a 1,700-mile road trip during which I gained a couple pounds eating regular food. Now I’m down a pound, from 163.8 (74.5 kg) to 162.6 (73.9 kg). I was a good boy this week.

Just got this “salad dressing shaker.” I thought it was a cruet.

Since I haven’t done nutritional analysis on these salads yet, I’m taking a general multivitamin. To help keep my blood pressure under control, I take magnesium oxide 800 mg/day and try to drink 2–3 cups of hibiscus tea/day. I’m not sure if the supplements are doing any good. The diet probably doesn’t meet the RDA for calcium but I’m not worried about it.

Not salad……..not gonna eat it.
