  • I gained 10 pounds last year which is a lot for me after years of maintaining my college weight. I got more serious about my diet (avoiding seed oils, corn syrup, etc), bumped up my exercise routine to a more regular eveyr other day, and started at least a 12 hour fast, within a month was back to my ideal weight. Maintaining that so far, but the main thing is like you say, you have to eat good quality food and just buy olive oil in bulk and use it all the time. Actually every now and then I use Kerry Gold butter because I trust the Irish to have cows eating on a field… hopefully that’s right so I spend a little extra on butter and treat myself from time to time.






  • He is very anti-big corporation especially when the government makes the rules to benefit said corporation. That’s what I like about him. I am voting for him in the Democrat primary - a primary I have never voted in before. But mainly that is because I hate Biden and all the woke Democrats. I hope he wins but I would probably vote for Desantis or Ramaswamy over RFK. I’d vote RFK over Trump though because I don’t like Trump - he begs for the admiration of the media and did every single thing Fauci wanted. I think he was OK but too easily taken advantage of.




  • It is part spiritual, I’m sure. Each generation is more selfish and less religious than the one before. But even religious people are getting really fat. I think they put too much crap in our food, wayyyyyyy too much preservatives and processed foods going around. Me, I just do a 12 hour fast every night and exercise every other day and it keeps me at ideal weight. I weigh myself about once a week just to be sure. I had gained 10 pounds earlier this year and that’s when I did the 12 hour fast. It’s really pretty easy and more rigorous exercise and i was back to ideal weight in a month.















  • Now that I have a wife, a house, even kids in college… and see this comment. I had goals, I achieved goals. i have no new goals. Maybe I need new goals. I suppose retirement was/is a goal. I think you can be content without goals. Like, I recently got chickens for my backyard and between the chickens and vegetable gardening, I am content. I enjoy the eggs, the fruit of my labor. But I don’t have a “goal” to get 3 pounds of tomatoes, or 4 eggs a day, or anything like that.

    But many people have no contentment and no goals. I think you need one or the other or both.
