Cantaloupe vs. McDonald's

I hear ya there; my weakness is those Maple Twists from Nickle's bakery here in Ohio. There's six in the pack and dang if I couldn't eat them all. (in ONE sitting~!)
I TOTALLY have to watch what I eat.
I used to work for the phone company... yes, up on poles... digging underground, totally physical. Then got RIF'd out, and here I am. FINALLY caring about what I eat; should've started 20 years ago, better late than never, tho. Still get a 2 year med card; no issues, no sleep studies.
That's awesome about your dad, man. I know you've put a lot into that, as well.
My mom is 88 and still kicking it like a spring chicken... there's nothing wrong with eggs; the protein is phenom. Look at the body builders. My mom eats a few a week; when I remember to hard boil them and add to her salad; she's asleep when I leave, and napping when I get home, but between the wife and myself, we do what we can.
We threw away SO many berries that she would just buy and accumulate.... too many. It's all she thought she needed to eat. Now, we buy in "moderation," and add to her amazing salads that will last her for 2 days.

 

Ha~! Ladder Aerobics / Spiked boot aka: pole aerobics... yep, good ole' days. Told my wife I used to be a "pole dancer" .... she didn't believe me til she saw the old 110 photos, LoL~!

Hear ya there, man. Sux that what we got paid to do costs us money for a membership anymore, huh? (Pizza....yum!!) Miss those days, too. We get "healthy" pizza once in awhile.

My mom isn't fond of eggs at all; gotta HB and add to salads. (or hide in her wheat toast, or bury in some grits; the wife taught me that one, being southern and all...lol.)

Maybe that's where my mom's "manners of evil" comes in, LoL. Ok, gonna HB a dozen, then. Great insight, man. Thanks.

 

Why wasn't carne asada fries an option?

 

Actually, looks great. Yep, the carne fries (or just whole grain tortillas) would've been better. Love me some guac, man. Beans don't like me (so the wife says) but I love'em~!

 

I have been the same weight since 20 years old. Now im 38. Never had a belly or love handles. Of course my weight fluctuates +-4 lbs but i stay in the same range. I eat everything but in an acceptable amount. I didnt drink soda since forever. If im getting a burger i dont get french fries with it. If im getting a subway, always 6 inch and i try to find a soup to go with it. Lately im enjoying wendys salads. Power Mediterranean and fresh mozarella.
