I went from 8 to 12 cans of Dr. Pepper a day to zero about three years ago. Took me a week and a half to two weeks to get over the headaches and lack of energy from the caffeine withdrawal, but it was worth it. I still have a Dr. Pepper about twice a year, but now they don't taste as good as they used to.

I read a mix of fiction and non-fiction...classics, horror, southern literature, history, science, etc. I read several books at any given time. That's probably a result of spending so many years in school. I almost always finish a book once I've started it. That may take quite a while if I'm not enjoying it, but I figure…

I have a similar situation, but with my mother. She comments all the time about something I'm eating not being on my diet. I point out to her that I'm not on a diet and that I can eat whatever I want as long as I stay within my calorie limit for the day. I know for a fact that I'm getting healthier and fitter and smarter…

It's all about who's in control...you or the donuts. I have my own set of food demons, but I can tell you that being the one in control feels - and tastes - pretty darn good...maybe not better, but good enough to keep me being the one in control.

Go straight to the source, and throw in some BBQ chicken for supper. B)

Hmmm. Looks like I'm the exception to the rule here. My sister and my nephew and his wife are on my friend list. If other friends or family were on MFP, I'd add them. Of course there's the fact to consider that they all know I'm a crusty old fart and don't pay much attention to their spoken or written advice, opinions, and…

Thirty minutes on the rowing machine after a forty-five minute weight routine on M-W-F. Forty-five to sixty minutes on the stationary bike on T-T-S. Sunday's my rest day.

To show the armadillos and possums that it can be done. :-O

My granddaughter loves my beard. At least when she's awake and pulling on it, she does.

Been on MFP for over a year, but only recently got serious about it. Looking to grow my support system and become a part of others' support systems, so feel free to add me.

I've been on GR since 2008. Love it. I'm on the site every day and spend more time there than on FB. Feel free to send me a friend request. Just add a note when you do to let me know you found me here on MFP. https://www.goodreads.com/user/show/1344527-dan-porter

Looking for mutual support and encouragement. Twenty-five pounds into a hundred and forty pound loss goal so I can eventually have knee-replacement surgery. Joined a gym and have hit it for an hour or more six days a week for the past seven weeks.

I used to drink Dr. Pepper - 8 to 12 cans a day, depending on the kind of day I was having - at work. Didn't drink it at home very often and almost never on the weekends. Probably the reason I had frequent weekend headaches back then. About three years ago, I decided I needed to cut out the caffeine, so I did. Replaced the…

I joined a gym a little over a month ago, and being there in the morning is such a part of my routine now that it's harder not to go than it is to go. I do a weight routine and 30 minutes on the rowing machine three days a week and 45 - 60 minutes on the bike three days a week. Thinking of mixing things up a bit by…
