>> No more beer.

I used to love the craft beers, but no more as of 10 years ago.

Get your weight under 200 lbs. Make sure you resting BP is under 130/85, and avoid carbs!!

Eat less! You can stave off the appetite with something like a spoonful of almond butter.

If alcohol is a necessity, avoid the sugars. The liver loves to store glycogens which can lead to problems for diabetics.

My bp is not bad. Carbs like bread, pizza,
and potatoes are bad.
I went down to 221 after hospital stay
but creeping up again.
Usually my beer was a light one like
Bud Select, with a meal, but would try
craft beer if I travelled.
Smaller portions and sensible food was at
the hospital. In most cases was allowed
to order but sometimes I had to fast
for tests sometimes.
Thu noon—had lunch
2 pm—heart attack; admitted to hospital
Fri 2 pm-finally able to eat again

Hey, thanks for caring man. That’s nice. :)

Almond butter? Why the heck not? I’ll try it.

I haven’t gained in 7 or 8 years...I just haven’t lost!

Which means even a little less every day will make a difference.

At 56, it’s time to rock!!
