Poll Which diet do you prefer?

[Naira]

I prefer home-cooked food. I avoid eating out more than once or twice a month. Other than that, I try to cook different stuff so that we don't eat similar foods all the time. This leads to a more-or-less balanced diet without me having to think specifically about it.

When you get older walking does nada

Well, I guess it does more than not walking.

I just started walking in January and I have lost twenty-five pounds. Just finished walking a mile and a half and I try to do it every day...or at least five days a week. My AIC levels went from 6.8 to 6.1 (as I said I'm diabetic and that has to do with blood glucose levels) Not quite where I want then to be but much better. My cholesterol levels went from 223 to 203. Once again not where I want them but much better. I did not take statins.

I cut down on carbs, ate eggs almost every day and bacon...and butter.

Walking did me a LOT Of good.

As far as my age is concerned...let's just say I remember TOS during its original airing.

OMG. Well I don't have a car and I walk everywhere and also go for super big walks if the setting is good and .. fuck it. I guess I can just say this. If I did not walk who knows how much more flab I would have! I am a living AFTER person because I have never lived the BEFORE as in before, walking. So I don't know. I should just observe myself and think what a fantastic success. I am a testament to walking because you should see myself before walking! Which no one can! Because it never happened!

btw @stardream this is not sarcasm addressed towards you, I realise it could possibly be read that way. I am just kinda taking the piss out of myself. I am drinking wine and eating no name cheese twists so taking the piss out of myself is my current resting state.

That's ok. I'm a bit pumped over my new numbers because I worked damn hard for them. Newest convert sings the loudest in the choir and all that....just ignore me for the time being because eventually it will hit me that this is my new normal. I have to do this for the rest of my life if I want things to keep working properly.

I would happily walk 10k a day if I thought it did any good. I think I've walked about 5k a day semi regularly for a while. But walking seems to be just.. nothing to me.

I am doing a shitload of pushups at the moment though so that one small part of my body will soon have no flab.
