Glucose Ketone entries working

 Mywaterfasts.com

Man oh man. Learning the computer languages PHP, HTML and Javascript along with picking up how to create a website using WordPress has been a bit overwhelming.  

So the Glucose/Ketone form works and adds entries into the server database. Also the table view of the entries are working. Whew!!!!

So next I'm not sure which I want to do next. My mind wants to do the exciting stuff. Create graphs of the GKI levels at each fast. That's fun. Or, get the member form working so that I can keep member's information separated in the database and keep anyone's information sacred from another member. 

Luckily, I did some PHP stuff a decade ago. PHP is a language that runs on the server and not in your browser. So when a member signs in,  the database holds the password in an encrypted form. 

It's really interesting.  The NSA had figured out how to keep their agent's password protected. So they came up with a technique call the SHA encryption. The way it works is ingenious. 

When you first enter your new password, my system encrypts it using the SHA algorithm, which I then place that encrypted password in the database under your name. The incredible part is that I can't tell what your password is. When you log on next, the SHA algorithm reencryts it and if it matches what's in the database then I know it's you and log you in.

I won't keep anyone's unencrypted password. Why would I do that. That just opens up your members to a security risk. Using this technique,  the password is even hidden from me. Really cool. 

There is so much to do to get to where I was on my desktop version. No matter.

Its well worth it. Knowing what you're fixing in your fasts is so powerful.

Statistics of fasts

I have the graphs working on the extended fasts. All is pretty much good and well to a point. I want to superimpose the condition(s) above the fast times. Bear in mind that what appears complex in this note, the complexity of the program, itself, is at least 30 times more complex. To compare the fasting times to the condition times, for instance, I want to see when I'm losing weight compared to the fasts. Weight is the example here. What is done here will work with the thousands of conditions the members may have. That's a bit complex. The condition check may lie outside of the start and end of the fast.  I can't ignore what is outside the fast, especially if no condition tests were done within the fasts themselves. I have to use the last or average of the weights before the fast. Also, if there is weight checks within the fasts, then I'll use an average of those. When you're travelling through arrays of information, there's all kinds of gotchas that'll caus...

Huge update

 I've been reading several books since last month. The Ketogenic Bible,  Dr Fung's book, David Sinclair's book and more. I absorb these ideas on metabolic systems in the body.  The most interesting is understanding the rebuild/repair system of the body. The main idea I've come to understand is that the human system needs to spend more time on the repair side of metabolism. The thing is, we eat without allowing the body to repair.   The repair of Autophagy in all its types really can't function properly with just a few hours of rest from eating. We are built to repair our cells when we don't eat for a few days. To measure the amount of repair taking place I use the GKI index. For that to work I use the blood tests for Ketones and Glucose using inexpensive blood monitors. Read the levels on my site: mywaterfasts.com.  What I've learned is that it took me three days to reach down to 1.5 on the GKI index so that cysts are being repaired. That fixed my right eye...

Condition Graphs

 The entering and saving of the condition system is working. I am now working on the conditions graph that shows up above the fast graph as a line graph. It's a bit complex. Something like, first cut the conditions that exist before and after the selected dates of the fast graphs, then average the numbers between each fast and create the line point at that height. That gives me the ability to see how my progress corelates to the fasts. So, like, if I'm losing weight, I can see how that particular graph affected my weight or blood pressure or inflammation of my joints etc. After that's done, I'll be working on getting the system, as a whole, to accept multiple people. After that, I'll make the system more efficient. Like being able to login in from the front screen and then jump to the main app screen with some message saying I'm logged in. After that, I want to get the totals of the GKI indexes and maybe graph that. There's still a lot to do but I'm prog...
