I have lost 50 pounds. And, now, I am getting REAL serious.

I have begun mixing the new improved V8 Juice that has double the fibre at 50/50 with my beers. And, I am keeping the beer in the fridge in the basement so I have to walk down and up the stairs.

I am keeping a positive attitude and looking forward to a more healthy gnu. I hope I can manage to stay with my new plan. It's kinda rough, especially after long workouts... no pain, no loss eh?

Well, hell, gn-zer... That sounds like a purdy balance diet to me... All the major food groups in beer and V-8 the way I see it... Okay, a tad light on the amino acids (protiens) so I'd suggest maybe a can of Bush beans with a rice bar once a day and you'll be good to go... Oughtta live to be a hunnert...

What??? You are an hunnert??? Danged... I would have you pegged in the mid 90s... I mean, keep up what ever you are doin' 'cause it obviously is workin' fir ya'...

Sounds like a good diet to me - do you reckon that V8 stuff would go with white wine, instead of beer?

Beer... you know... that beer that a lot of people like to crap on that outsells all other beers. Not really beer. Tastes like water. Been through the Clydesdale.

Bobert... beer has lots of protein if ya BBQ a big juicy steak. Beer and BBQ are a natural combo.

And, if I was inclined, hemp seed contains complete and highly-digestible protein and hemp oil is high in essential fatty acids.

The hemp might not be a good dietary choice, though, unless ya got lots of beer and steak.

Maybe I'll put the BBQ at the rear of the lawn... I am an exercise freak now. Well, mid-lawn... I don't wanna start out over-extending myself.

Try this substitution.

Mix 2/3 glass of Gerwerstraminer with 1/3 glass of Miller beer (from glass bottle, please) and wave the can of V8 juice around. Set it down in the general vacinity and enjoy the Berlinerwasser.

SINS... I have stopped thinkin about that cat because I konw "it" is home, well fed and warm, safe and sound, and being played with by small children who will love it and protect it until it their father has to take it to the vet and cry while it is put to sleep.

I can only hope for happy endings.

Rollin is good exercise... in the hay, in the bunk, in the back yard on the lawn in a warm summer rain... ahhh... when I was young and in good physical condition, I use to exercise every chance I had.

Now, the only time I get bent out of shape is when I am rollin.

Just kiddin. I don't roll any more.

The doc was pleased this AM. Not only the weight loss, but the blood pressure is down to 136/80. So I get to live at least until I see the ENT, the eye doc, and the mortician.

Odd... the mortician is the only one that can give you a firm quote on a timely basis. I guess he deals with a higher degree of "certainty".

Oh... dunno if I mentioned this on any other threads... my memory is as bad as... ahhh...

Dalhousie School of Medicine in Halifax will accept your remains, keep them no longer than three years, pay all costs for cremation and shipping to wherever.

Sounds like a bargain to a smart shopper like me.

Plus, you can get your ass shipped to where they allow you to NOT pay a funeral home $$$ for burial. Here in my province, you GOTTA pay the bastards big $ for fuck all... you GOTTA be buried. Bro paid big bucks to be "buried" less than frost deep next to a bunch of bog spruce. Fookin thieves.

I don't need to lose (much) weight, but I have discovered that my exercise program is enhanced by my age and memory loss.....the more I forget, the more I get to run up & down stairs and back & forth between rooms.

gnu, I think you need to write a book on your dieting experience. This past year I have tried Weight Watchers, the South Beach Diet, a low carb diet, a restricted calorie diet as well as a gym, a yoga class and a strength training class. The net result is a four pound weight gain.

Hemp seed, beer and V8 - worth a try.

It's getting really tough to make any headway. But, my fridge died yesterday and now I gotta go up and down stairs for everything... so, maybe the fact that I have only lost another ten pounds since my first post to this thread will change.

Anyway, it's 60 pounds now.
