Update on Dreadnut

[JohnW63]

Be careful with the keto stuff. Make sure your doc is OK and your kidneys are good. Ketosis is not always a good thing. Like ketoacidosis.

 

[Tom O]

Glad to hear you are home. Time to renew your finger calluses.

 

[Opsimath]

Al? Dread? There's a problem with women being in charge?

Just a weak attempt at some humor, Cynthia. My wife and four daughters are taking great care of me!

Thanks, I have informed my PCP and my Cardiologist.

Actually, I'm having fun tweaking my meal plan.

 

[dreadnut]

Remember Euell Gibbons? "Hi, I'm Euell Gibbons, ever eat a tree?"

 

[Opsimath]

I knew that. It's great you have such a terrific support staff.

By the way, didn't Mr. Gibbons have stomach cancer, or was that just a widespread rumor?

 

[walrus]

That was a rumor. Probably started by a large processed food corporation!

He died of a heart attack. From https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euell_Gibbons - "Gibbons died on December 29, 1975, aged 64, at Sunbury Community Hospital in Sunbury, Pennsylvania,[5] of a ruptured aortic aneurysm, a common complication from Marfan syndrome."

[geoguy]

Marfan syndrome . . . Robert Johnson may have had that ailment.

 

[davismanLV]

My best friend in college had Marfan's syndrome. Definitely not a great thing. Super long fingers and double jointed everywhere.......

Prob'ly came in handy when "Stalking the Wild Asparagus."

Apparently Marfan's also causes pun-itive behavior.

 

[dreadnut]

Nothing like wild asparagus!

Oh sh!t Dread hope everything goes well . At are age food is a biggest enemy . Lack of exercise etc ugh ….
I lost a lot of weight about 60 lbs but it’s going up slowly . Grrrrr my knee issues helped but that is not a great way to diet .
It’s weird but since all this started food has a different taste . Fast food just doesn’t cut anymore salt really tastes bad . About all I get when out if hungry is Wendy’s spicy chicken sandwich oh and have to have a chocolate frosty . Lol
But that’s it .

I been grilling but not the healthiest eating . Lol

gave you checked out any of those order online chef healthy meals ?

Anyway prayers you get where you need to be brother .

If you're on low sodium, yep. Ain't it great?

Don't know if you realize it, but even though it's "spicy" chicken, anything prepped for fast food use is a sodium bomb, they inject the meat with salt solution just like they do with the universal "rotisserrie chickens". In fact it makes the "spicy" taste spicier.

Betcha just one is more than my entire daily allotment.

Ok, at 990mg only 2/3 of it, according to this site:

Calories in Wendy's Spicy Chicken Sandwich | CalorieKing

There are 500 calories in 1 order of Wendy's Spicy Chicken Sandwich. You'd need to walk 139 minutes to burn 500 calories. Visit CalorieKing to see calorie count and nutrient data for all portion sizes.

So with 2 8oz glasses of milk and 3 (small) chocolate chip cookies, I'm fed for the day, or rather, "I hit my limit".

I been grilling but not the healthiest eating . Lol

I humbly submit it's actually far healthier than any fast food I can think of, specially the sauces and dressings.
If you're using BBQ sauce though, that's another sodium overdose waiting to happen.

have you checked out any of those order online chef healthy meals ?

I don't want nobody picking out my raw food but me, but then I've had years of experience in selecting it the way I want it.
And if they include sauces, there's your hidden sodium bomb again. It's always the sauces even if everything else is actually "good".

Anyway prayers you get where you need to be brother .

Amen to that, and same to you!

I kinda like eating meats and seafood I can actually identify...

Even better'n Spam:

But had to give it up 'cause there's no nutrition label, can't figure out the sodium content or even serving size.

 

[dreadnut]

In the Philippines, the street vendors sold hibachi skewers that we called "monkey meat." We would walk down the sidewalk from bar to bar, and stop for a skewer along the way. Could be monkey meat, could be pork. After several San Miguels, We didn't care.

And if you really want an adventure in eating be sure to try balut at various stages of aging.
