A Basic Question, Please.
Let's see....The folks here love to eat and cook and shop and
post on the Usenet, surf the Web, and watch TV, from what I've been able to see. None of those things burn a lot of calories, but all this eating sure takes a lot of them in. Let's have everyone post their weight and height here, shall we, along with their age and diet-style and how many times a year they go to the doctor. I'll kick things off: Height: 5'10 Weight: 163 Age: 54yrs Diet-Style: Pure Vegetarian Doctor-Trips/Year: None -------------------------------- Your turn: Height: Weight: Age: Diet-Style Doctor-Trips/Year |

I am not responsible for your behavior. But I'll bet that I am far healthier than you are. You reap what you sow. We should add fitness level too.

But consuming a lot of flesh from animals that have been mistreated and pumped full of chemicals and eat their dead brothers is not a real bright idea. Especially if you are sitting around on your fat butt all day. We should add fitness level too.

He used to get up in the morning and have two spoons full of yogurt, some cereal with fruit, 2 poached eggs with cheese and salt along with 2-3 slices of toast, each smeared with butter and honey. He went to restaurants for lunch and usually had red meat with gravy. He was a big meat eater. Whenever he served a roast he would have seconds, thirds, maybe a fourth helping. After his wife died his evening meal was reduced to peanut butter on crackers or cold cuts, and always a double martini. The last time I saw him stand on his head and chug a beer he was 86. That was about the same time I saw him run a half a city block to catch a streetcar. He rarely went to the doctor. He could still fit into his WW I army uniform, and he was quite fit and active until he died peacefully in his sleep a few weeks before his 95th birthday. My wife inherited her father's eating habits. She eats bacon and eggs for breakfast, or just hard boiled eggs and cheese if she is in a hurry. She goes through 1-2 dozen eggs per week, at least a pound of cheese, uses cream in her coffee (no substitutes). She uses a lot of butter on vegetables. She eats 2-3 times as much meat as I do, and especially likes red meats. While I cut off the fat from my meat, she not only eats all the fat on her meat but often eats the stuff that I cut off. She has no cholesterol problems. She avoids starch in all forms, and eats very little sugar. At age 59 she is 5'7" and weighs 135, and people are always commenting on how great she looks. My grandmother almost always had bacon and eggs for breakfast. She had cream in her tea and smeared bread with butter. She had meat with every meal. She was never much overweight and died 2 weeks short of her 100th birthday after breaking a hip. She had survived a broken hip two years earlier. According to your misguided estimates, they would all have been 250 and frequent visitors to the doctor and died young. |

Yup... can't rely on trends... my grandfather, (my father's father) never retired, worked right up to his dying day at age 97. And no sedentary job, he retired from the restaurant business to become a plumber, didn't drive, so walked to each job, carrying all his tools/supplies on his back in huge burlap sacks... I remember even in his eighties he'd sling a cast iron bath tub onto his back, held with a rope around his waist, and carried it up three flights of stairs. He must've weighed 220lbs, was about 6' 2", and ate like ten horses, every meal was a banquet... calories was not a word in his vocabulary. After work he'd sit on the front porch in his rocking chair watching the world pass by (the man never seemed to have a care in the world, no worrier he), rocked in his chair spooning down a tall class of good cavier washed down by a liter of vodka, this every day fare while waiting to be called for dinner... oh, he chain smoked Chesterfields. The little old ladies half his age passed by muttering that man will drink himself to death, and so he did, at 97. My mother's father was a roofer, but no ordinary roofer, he was a tall building coppersmith, did the roof on the Chrysler building. His knees went in his late sixties so he could no longer climb, but he lived until 86. His favorite daily snack consisted mainly of tins of oil packed sardines with raw onions eaten with entire huge loaves of Russian black bread slathered with butter, and tall tea glasses filled to the brim with slivervitz or Old Overhall whiskey... this before dinner. I think their secret to long life was hard physical work and never stuffing their emotions. So I decided to retire to a farm, and I always did tell it like it is. ---= BOYCOTT FRANCE (belgium) GERMANY--SPAIN =--- ---= Move UNITED NATIONS To Paris =--- ********* "Life would be devoid of all meaning were it without tribulation."

Also, the exercise helps. Moderate drinkers usually have some stigmata of chronic liver damage (after years of moderate to heavy drinking,) but their arteries are usually squeaky clean. They (unless they drink and don't eat,) usually live long lives (unless they are drinkers that practice unsafe habits (swimming or driving while drunk.) Rich -- "Dum Spiro, Spero."

Yup... can't rely on trends... my grandfather, (my father's father) never retired, worked right up to his dying day at age 97. And no sedentary job, he retired from the restaurant business to become a plumber, didn't drive, so walked to each job, carrying all his tools/supplies on his back in huge burlap sacks... I remember even in his eighties he'd sling a cast iron bath tub onto his back, held with a rope around his waist, and carried it up three flights of stairs. He must've weighed 220lbs, was about 6' 2", and ate like ten horses, every meal was a banquet... calories was not a word in his vocabulary. After work he'd sit on the front porch in his rocking chair watching the world pass by (the man never seemed to have a care in the world, no worrier he), rocked in his chair spooning down a tall class of good cavier washed down by a liter of vodka, this every day fare while waiting to be called for dinner... oh, he chain smoked Chesterfields. The little old ladies half his age passed by muttering that man will drink himself to death, and so he did, at 97. My mother's father was a roofer, but no ordinary roofer, he was a tall building coppersmith, did the roof on the Chrysler building. His knees went in his late sixties so he could no longer climb, but he lived until 86. His favorite daily snack consisted mainly of tins of oil packed sardines with raw onions eaten with entire huge loaves of Russian black bread slathered with butter, and tall tea glasses filled to the brim with slivervitz or Old Overhall whiskey... this before dinner. I think their secret to long life was hard physical work and never stuffing their emotions. So I decided to retire to a farm, and I always did tell it like it is. ---= BOYCOTT FRANCE (belgium) GERMANY--SPAIN =--- ---= Move UNITED NATIONS To Paris =--- ********* "Life would be devoid of all meaning were it without tribulation."

He used to get up in the morning and have two spoons full of yogurt, some cereal with fruit, 2 poached eggs with cheese and salt along with 2-3 slices of toast, each smeared with butter and honey. He went to restaurants for lunch and usually had red meat with gravy. He was a big meat eater. Whenever he served a roast he would have seconds, thirds, maybe a fourth helping. After his wife died his evening meal was reduced to peanut butter on crackers or cold cuts, and always a double martini. The last time I saw him stand on his head and chug a beer he was 86. That was about the same time I saw him run a half a city block to catch a streetcar. He rarely went to the doctor. He could still fit into his WW I army uniform, and he was quite fit and active until he died peacefully in his sleep a few weeks before his 95th birthday. My wife inherited her father's eating habits. She eats bacon and eggs for breakfast, or just hard boiled eggs and cheese if she is in a hurry. She goes through 1-2 dozen eggs per week, at least a pound of cheese, uses cream in her coffee (no substitutes). She uses a lot of butter on vegetables. She eats 2-3 times as much meat as I do, and especially likes red meats. While I cut off the fat from my meat, she not only eats all the fat on her meat but often eats the stuff that I cut off. She has no cholesterol problems. She avoids starch in all forms, and eats very little sugar. At age 59 she is 5'7" and weighs 135, and people are always commenting on how great she looks. My grandmother almost always had bacon and eggs for breakfast. She had cream in her tea and smeared bread with butter. She had meat with every meal. She was never much overweight and died 2 weeks short of her 100th birthday after breaking a hip. She had survived a broken hip two years earlier. According to your misguided estimates, they would all have been 250 and frequent visitors to the doctor and died young. |

Besides, who's going to know if I'm lying? Height: 6' 3" Weight: 220 lbs Age: 46 Diet-Style: Whatever I want. That equates to pretty much following the food pyramid. My main protein source is chicken (I prefer dark meat), second is a toss-up between seafood and pork, third is beef, then everything else. The bulk of my nutrition comes from varied grains; I almost always have some kind of grain-based starch at a meal. It's not as monotonous as it might sound, since besides the usual rice, wheat, and corn products, I include barley, millet, quinoa, amaranth, buckwheat, and spelt. I also enjoy eating vegetables, provided they're prepared competently. Dave, you stupid troll, if you want to know the "diet-style" of the posters here, why don't you read the threads where we all say what we had for dinner (or Christmas, or breakfast, or any other meal)? Tonight I had cornbread and split pea soup for dinner, but the soup wasn't vegetarian because it had bacon and pepperoni in it -- thanks for the recipe, Carol! I had a yogurt parfait for dessert. But maybe that's not typical, because I just got back from six days in Las Vegas, where I *lost* a pound. Typical or not, it's what I *wanted*, which guideline has served me pretty well so far. Doctor-Trips/Year: 1 physical exam, in which I'm always told that I'm healthy as a troll half my age. (Since cancer runs in my family, it would be extreme folly to skip the checkup.) Bob |

I think the doctor visit you are writing about is hard to accomplish
