I'm kind of thinking that part of my weight loss this year is that I've cut way back on my sugar intake (my New Year's Resolution).
Had a little Popeye belly around new years, and it's long gone.
I didn't even buy (or eat) any x-mas candy, and only had a handful of the Halloween candy we bought in case any kids stopped by, which they didn't (the wife brought the mega-mix jumbo bag to work with her the next day, and it was snagged up by her co-workers by the end of the day).
Definitely feel better without all that sugar intake.
The only reason I still have a little soda pop is to help me swallow my pills, and for a brief burst of caffeine if I need to stay up a little later than my sleepiness would otherwise allow.
Other than that, very little sugary stuff so far this year.
(being half Native American makes me susceptible to diabetes, even from fruits, which is the main reason I decided to almost remove sugars from my diet this year).
So far so good, but I need to eat food a lot more than I do currently.
I want to maintain a decent baseline level of health for when I'm done with my leuky meds to help me get back to "normal" as quick as possible.

I know you said, but what is your weight normally?
I dont know your height to make any guesses.

I was supposed to work out every day last week and with my 8 day headache I got only one day in.
I really hope to improve upon that.
I started taking Dipenhydramine Hydrochlodire (sp?) Benadryl in case my problem is allergies.

I'm 5'11" tall, and unless I'm working out or doing manual labor jobs, I maintain about 160-165 lbs. with about 6 to 9% body fat.
When I'm working hard or working out I stay at 180 to 185 with 4 to 6% body fat.
I don't recall if I've ever been over 185, but back in the day I rarely weighed myself.
The lowest I've been is 128-lbs, which is something I do not want to happen again.
140 is my lower limit before I start to panic.

Wow u really have a low BF%
maybe you could benefit from eating more fats?
When I was young I was 4-8% BF at all times.
After I quit the meth I skyrocketed up in weight and the BF% went up also as if my metabolism needed stimulation now after being used to drugs to be thin.
Now I am at 22%, but when I was 230 and 34" waist I was still over 10%


Made some more George Foreman burgers with jalapeno jack cheese, Romaine lettuce, and fresh tomatoes.
All together with BBq sauce Rooster sauce and on an onion roll

I don't shy away from the fats, but it's always been difficult for me to gain weight and maintain it.
I have to eat like a horse.
But I have to watch my lipids & triglycerides while on my meds.
I do enjoy my cheeses, though.
Thinking of a cheeseburger tonight for dinner
Cheeseburger (Tillamook Medium Cheddar), with a small tomato, on whole wheat bread.
If I have room in the belly, I'm going to leave to option open to have a follow-up burger an hour after eating dinner.
Have to work at gaining (healthy) weight before it dips too far down.

Weird thing today, is that I took my meds which normally have me wanting to puke within a half an hour, but I took them with the Mass XXX (mixed with whole milk) at 2:30pm and not one bit of nausea so far (never makes a difference whether on a full stomach, or empty stomach, always have the nausea, and it goes on & on and randomly pops up through the day).
Hmmm... I may be on to something...

My grandma and old doc always told me to take pills with whole milk.

I saw my first centipede today. Was quite excited. Looked just like the video game. It was bright orange.

I'm actually not supposed to take my meds with milk as it (the fats) raises the serum level of the meds in my blood stream pretty high.
But today I already had a batch mixed up and didn't want to waste it.

Centipedes freak me out a bit.
Kind of beautiful creatures, but just freaky looking.
Millipedes, too.

Used to get into a series of Sci-Fi books back in high school called "The War Against the Chtorr"




Was about a race of big bugs who had invaded Earth with the intent of conquering (eating) humanity.
A really good series of books, very well written.

I liked the old MTV "Celebrity Deathmatch" stuff, but these Rap Battles are way better (IMO).
Doobs your bringing back old child hood memories and it brings tears to my eyes, not to sound gay or whatever, well fuck it I don't care. I fucked up a lot of my brain when I was younger and did some pretty shitty things to my family. It was all do to drugs(coke,meth,herion,you name it) I became a spiteful person and would steal from you and wouldnt even think twice about it. But finally at age 17 I found the art of growing cannabis thankfully and my life started a turn for the best. I owe this plant to my life. I have very deep beliefs in it and just love everything about it. My girl says sometimes I spend to much time with it lol.

Wow sorry about that, that shit just popped into my head and made me feel good and just had to get it out. But honestly thanks doobs.

Matter fact thanks to everyone in the 600 club! You guys are all my family and would have all your backs!!

Right on, I'm glad you came through it all.
Like a lot of us in here, I had a bad, bad temper when I was younger, and even into adulthood.
I never did the heavy drugs.
Tried coke 3 times, and didn't drink or smoke weed until I was 19, and weed (good weed) was hard to find in the old days where I'm from, so I turned into a real boozer.
Since I started growing my own, I have mellowed out so much.
Not just from toking & being high, but from the different perspective on life that cannabis has given me.
I feel like a different person, one who's able to move forward.
Seems to have that positive effect on lots of us.
The healing herb, indeed.

I hope that can be repeated successfully.
I have heard most meds should not be taken with pineapple juice as your body gets a way higher % into the blood or something, and your normal dose can now be lethal.
This is only true with certain types of meds though.
