I’ve been either grilling our veggies or roasting them. They taste awesome!
Historically my fasting blood work was always out of whack bigly in HDL, LDL, and triglycerides. I went on a keto diet for a few months, then had blood work done and everything, to my amazement, was in the green.
Pinging
I’ve lost almost 25 pounds by just being somewhat disciplined with carbs.
My fave proteins are eggs, chicken thighs with skin on, steaks, pork chops, and fish with skin on. If I’m pinched for time I’ll do unsweetened whey protein mixed in whole milk.
Lotsa fresh veggies.
Also recommend weight lifting and walking.
Pretty much the standard stuff but I think lowish carb and high quality are important distinctions.
And I would say genetics is probably the biggest factor in overall health.
The first rule of FAST Club is nobody talk about Fast Club.
Move to Clovis, NM. You won’t live any longer, but it will feel like an eternity!
If it tastes good eat it.
Oh and drink tequila. Lots of tequila.
Any woman who wants her husband to live a long time needs to listen to your advice. She says she's "in the mood" if he'll join her for a 3 mile walk first, and keeps doing that until he walks any extra weight off. A whole lot of very happy men will willingly walk 6 or even 9 miles a day with a real incentive.
The alternative: "here, eat tofu and tree leaves, and you'll live forever" makes normal men see living longer on that diet as a punishment.
Way to go brother!

You must be newly wed!
“My sex life is like social security. I get a little every month just not enough to live on... “
Braggart.
“:A balanced diet for a man:”
Whatever you want for breakfast, lunch and dinner mate. Don’t forget fine tobacco and alcohol.
“This one is good, adding the right amount of protein per day for your size and activity. -sorry, female”
I think the women have more common sense on this one then the men.
“A dietary improvement shouldn’t be difficult to arrange - most husbands spend vast amounts of time eating sh*t.”
Figuratively speaking.
“If it tastes good eat it.”
I won’t say it.
“Note that chocolate and maple syrup count as vegetables.”
Beer, wine and hard liquor are vegetables too.
“At least she doesn’t want you in poor health and hasn’t taken out a large life insurance policy on you.”
Eh eh. They all want what you have. They want to see the pyramids and Galapagos on your dime/grave and meet younger fools One of their favorites is witholding/denial...enhances chances of prostate cancer.
Right on!
