For those of you who aren't keeping tabs on my personal life, I started my New Year's resolution about a week after Thanksgiving. I decided that I would do a better job of feeding myself, and that meant I was going push myself away from some of my standard fare.
I stopped drinking, or eating, anything with High Fructose Corn Syrup in it I stopped drinking sweetened tea. I stopped eating in restaurants as much as I had been, and only going out to eat if I was with someone on the weekends. I stopped hitting buffets at lunch. (I miss my Friday lunch with the guys from work) I stopped drinking beer.
I'm down to 160 pounds from 167, and so far my exercise regime seems to be working.

As you all well know, the Bald Eagle is the symbol for America.........
KODIAK, Alaska - At least 19 bald eagles died Friday after gorging themselves on a truck full of fish waste outside a processing plant.Fifty or more eagles swarmed into the truck, whose retractable fabric cover was open, after the truck was moved outside the plant, said Brandon Saito, a biologist with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service who coordinated the recovery operation.The birds became too soiled to fly or clean themselves, and with temperatures in the mid-teen, began to succumb to the cold. Birds became so weak they sank into the fish slime and were crushed.And as it turns out, for Americans.
Take Better Care,
Mike

Great work on your diet.

My commentary of their commentary! Thanks
I was surprised that the birds would do that too. It's weird. Just being around humans makes animals more like us, I guess.
that's a pretty big jump you've made! Good work! Did ya see the Jags hanging with the Pats last night?
You're not supposed to enjoy it quite asmuch as you do, you know.
I think deer have a higher level of situational awareness than do turkeys.

It was hidden
And I'm with ya, Rose (just an ole GA peach) Williams. Though I back-pat Mike for his dieting willpower, I just can't give up baking essentials like caro syrup. Would PECAN PIE be the same with non-fat syrup??!! Heeeck, no. It''s not healthy like an apple that's for sure, but it's the original ingredients like high fructose corn syrup that make a pecan pie a pecan pie.
