  • Self myofascial release
  • That's exactly how my Granny ate hers
  • Look for a rust converter, POR-15 is one example.
  • I had the same issue, and here's how totally oblivious as to what was going-on with my health. Had knee replacement done by hacks who couldn't (meaning wouldn't) correct issues I'd had, so for years I walked with a bit of a limp, favoring that leg, and evidently effecting my stride and the way I landed on the other foot. I…
  • I think you've misunderstood my post, but that's OK. I wasn't talking bad about those who choose to participate in the whole thing, was simply trying to understand it (again, since I've never taken part in social media outside of a few forums of interest). I'll just leave it, and this thread at that. Wasn't my intention to…
  • With a smile on my face. Make of that what you will :)
  • OK, thanks, but I guess I just don't understand. We're all here on this site, talking back and forth, sharing interests in different threads, some of us asking for advice/help, others giving/offering it. I'm just not seeing where the "friends" thing plays into it all? Not asking for any further explanation, as I likely…
  • I tried searching my username, but it didn't even bring-up all the threads I've started (not that there's many). Not a knock on the site, I like it, but seems like there should be a simpler way to identify those posts? Thanks stanmann, your way worked!
  • Sometimes with friends, all you can do is be there for them when they need you to be there.
  • Cooking I don't mind so much, as I generally cook plenty for the freezer. Cleaning is another story. I eat off paper plates and use plastic utensils, and use paper towels, which eliminates a lot of it. I live full-time in a motorhome, and keeping food solids and grease out of the gray water tank are a must, otherwise (if I…
  • Glad it was nothing serious. 2-3 weeks is a small price to pay for something which (I'm guessing) could have been much worse. Do some bike riding, walking, and ease back into your routine when the time comes. You'll get to where you want to be, and a couple weeks isn't much in the grand scheme of things. Hope you heal…
  • I've eaten more (fresh) veggies in the last month, than I had in the past year. I can eat raw tomatoes just fine, don't care for them cooked in any form. I just had a bowl of Jambalaya for lunch, and could barely eat it because of the tomatoes I put in it. Next time I make it, I'll omit them, or cut the quantity down about…
  • I tried keto for a couple weeks, started-out strong, and wound-up starving, not to mention missed eating carbs. I was under-eating at 1650 cals, and since shifted gears to a 40c/40p/20f 2300cal diet, but have fallen short the past5-6 days, and really missing the carb and protein grams. Doing a bit better today, as I've…
  • Yes, though I didn't start-out that way. I carry a lot of constant pain in it (knee), so I used to sleep with a pillow under it, keeping it bent. I stopped doing that about a year ago. So Yeah, I can set on the floor and have it straightened-out. I am currently doing 2 sets of 20 rep no weight squats (to about 90*), and…
  • Being a newb here, I took that as being the minimum one should eat to exist, not as a guideline to weightloss.
  • Weights are in the plan, just taking some time to get "reacquainted" with them. I don't want to rush-in (which is exactly my nature), and I will definitely read the links you supplied. Much of my problem is little activity throughout the day, especially when it's in the mid-90's. I really need to get a bike. Correct (on…
  • Thanks for the reply! As far as the "ride", I'd decided maybe keto wasn't for me (which isn't to say I'd never try it again), I enjoy fruit, potatoes, and rice too much. Have also bumped-up daily intake to 2300 calories (40/40/20), but it's going to take me a day or two to adjust, not to mention a trip to the grocery store…
