They are in the Eating for Life book which I have started using for

many of my meals.

I feel that we need to use our best judgement. Berries are low in

sugar and healthy. Any nutrition plan that would prohibit blueberries

is too strict. The authorized foods list is not all inclusive in my

opinion.

We need to use some common sense. Eating blueberries are not going to

make you fail at BFL.

Thanks! Your good luck must have worked since I set a personal best

time yesterday at 19:03. My best time for this year so far has been

19:54 and my last personal best was set in 2001 at 19:30 during the

dog jog with my dog pulling me. I'm seeing less than 19 minutes in my

future! Yesterday, I tried to stay with a guy that always beats me.

I stayed with him until near the end and I usually lose him by

the half way point. Yesterday afternoon the weather conditions were

perfect for running at 51 degrees.

I got up late today so eating plan is off schedule and I am getting

ready to go do my leg workout. I've noticed the past several months

that I don't get that sore after a race any more so I can do workouts

the next day without a problem.
