Yesterday was a liquids day on the food calendar we are following for The Lord's Table. I had hot tea, V-8 Juice, water, and beef bouillon. I am surprised by how agreeable my system is to ingesting only liquids. Today is a half day—meaning we are to eat half what we would otherwise eat. I had a small bowl of Special K with non-fat milk for breakfast. I shall have tea and spring water throughout the day. We shall have leftovers from Monday's spaghetti with Italian sausage and marinara sauce for dinner. The program is working well, I am learning a good deal, and I am very enthusiastic about the lessons. The program may be taken online at no charge. I recommend it highly.

Laura and I began a Bible study program called "The Lord's Table" last Saturday. It is a Bible-based, 60-Day interactive course that will teach one to enjoy a newfound relationship with the Lord and how to find freedom from bad eating habits. The course is taught at Harvest Christian Center each Saturday morning and will last 12 weeks.

We are following the scheduled eating plan. Yesterday, the first day, was a "half day," meaning we ate half of what we would otherwise eat. Today is a "liquid day." Any liquids are allowed, but no solid food is to be eaten. We have V8 Juice, grapefruit juice, cranberry juice, and beef consommé. Tomorrow, will be a "normal day." And so it goes.
