The hell you say.... I'm as good or better than when I was 20.... food is
like oats to a horse... eat what you need and work hard. I never worry about
what I eat.... I go with what my body wants... If that's a triple
cheeseburger with extra mayo... so be it. I also don't eat more than once a
day.... usually! One big meal... sometimes I forget to eat for a day or
two... no big deal.
5'10" and 165lbs. I've got muscular defininition and hoist my weight easily
up rope or cliff.

20 lbs??? overweight??.... I'd be sufferin' blackouts just bending over to
tie my shoes!

No diet ever.... never watch what I eat.... eat what I want when I want....
I just work hard almost every day!

Problem lies with the take out 3 meals a day crowd.... not healthy to eat
that much!

It's easy to get sucked into a bad lifestyle. Easier than I would have
thought. Didn't smoke for 20 years, nor drink for that matter. Remember
Paul Martin? He warned me once aboutthe seductive S. Cal lifestyle. How
right he was. But that aside and all the plastic make excuses lifestyle of
that place aside I managed to go back the other way. Best thing that ever
happened to me. My mistake. My pain (and the hours on deck chipping rust
are definitely a pain!). My problem to deal with. But it was dealt with.
Most of that era has disappeared and all that's left is the unenviable but
diminishing front porch and that goes next. I found out at this age it's
hard to reverse things but not impossible, just takes longer. From what I
hear it's a zero sum gain for humanity. The more I lost, the more it went
elsewhere. Couldn't have worked out better! What Mooron writes below is a
harder lifestyle but a far better one. We'd all do well to follow his
example.
