For the record, I’m not giving up ice cream any time soon. Nope. Not giving up cheesecake, I don’t near as much as I’d like but… way hey!!!
Steak. Medium please, with some A1 or Worchester on the side, tyvm.
Why do people get all het up on another’s eating habits? Meat shaming. Please. Ice Cream Shaming??? What is the world coming to?
I’m going back to that old 1960’s slogan – If it feels good, do it!
Honestly people, I don’t understand it. I’m not overly fond of veggies, those I will eat are far and few between, although I will admit sometime this week, I’m going to steam up some cabbage, onions and zucchini and dust it with Fisherman’s Wharf. IF a person likes meat, well good on ’em. We’re all gonna die anyway. I had a music teacher fellow forum member who was vegan, exercised, lived healthy, etc… dropped dead at age 48. Dead. No coughing, no hey my chest hurts, nada, just… plunk on the floor. Dead. THey don’t know what killed him. Can’t figure it out. It’s been over a year.
you’re gonna die when you’re gonna die. If I’m gonna die, I want a steak! And I’m NOT giving up my occasional Klondike Bar!
Ahem. Sorry.
I went on a beefcake hunt this morning, to restock the pantry. I kept running into some wrestling dude with shears. Brutus Beefcake.
Shakes head. No. Not what I’m looking for.
I did a little digging through 1950’s beefcake.
I cannot unsee what has been seen.
There is something about a man in uniform… and all that firepower! hmmmmmmm…..
Before anyone screams, he’s got one of the toughest jobs in the world. I wouldn’t want it. Nice to see a sense of humor during this difficult election cycle
Vintage beefcake.
And my FAVORITE…
Damn that’s hot. I need some ice cream…
zee's muse 
That’s my position. Everyone’s gonna die of something, sometime. Also, I don’t think occasional meat or ice cream is going to kill you.
With my diabetes, I look at the list of things I have to severely restrict or give up. As someone who needs a high protein diet, meat is high on the list of what I CAN have. Processed meat, no. When I maintain my food intake, I feel pretty good with the protein. Sadly, breakfast with the biscuits and gravy and hashbrowns which I LOVE will bog me down every time. I’ve had sleeping issues as of late and looking at my food intake, I’m certain it’s the carbs.
When my grandfather was in the hospital for the last time, he wanted a steak, so my mom ordered him one. The nurse had a fit. My mom informed her – the man is 82 and is dying. A steak is NOT going to hurt him! I think he lived another 48 hours after that.
Either way, I”m losing weight, I’m eating what I like for the most part, just not as much of it. If I’m going to kick the bucket, might as well have a happy and satisfied tummy.
Nodding to both, whatever makes people happy
Was there a healthy glow? I didn’t see it under all that make-up… *don’t kill me*
HAHAHAHA! I saw someone standing out in the sun!
What? Where was the sun? It was cloudy in Berlin today!
Well then obviously the makeup was nuclear based!
Is that vegan-friendly?
prolly not
oh dear… Michelle will be disappointed.
She has no right, no place, no business to judge me. Or anyone else. Meh. I don’t judge her or anyone, right?
Well, wait, there are SOME people I judge, but I tend to keep it to myself for the most part and if I don’t keep it to myself, it’s not like I expect them to change.
Well, I better retract that implication, anyway. Michelle is a saint. Clearly.
Obviously! LOL!
No really, how she eats and believes is fine. She’s an adult, so that’s cool. If she LIKES being a vegan, more power to her!
I have to consume large quantities of protein, due to diabetes. Starches and carbs, bottom me out. Processed meat is a nono, but steak? Yum yum!!!
In addition, my son lives because of a dog named Barney. Many of the advances in heart health care were conducted on Barney. If I knew where his grave was, I’d go every year and put flowers on it and thank this wonderful creature.
To each his own.
I need to go post something. I’m behind. I’m getting ready to start on my Big Bang in a few weeks and I’m thinking it’s time to let Dwalin talk….
Of course. I very much sympathise with her beliefs. I have no problem with veganism at all. I have a problem with proselytising vegans, though. Probably because they always make me feel bad about my dietary choices. But hey, that’s on me, not on her.
Looking forward to your post… Dwalin? Bring him on…
Meat shaming is low. Very low. Telling me I MUST live a certain way, believe a certain way, I MUST THINK a certain way…
No.
Dwalin will be my Big Bang – like Hers – I’ll write it by a certain date, have it beta’d, there will be graphic art and I’ll begin posting it on a specific set date. Probably sometime in May.
i’m trying to figure out how I”m going to get 25K words out of this little bunny. It’s just a little story – in my head.
But then, so was Manna. I thought I’d have it wrapped up in 10 chapters. ha. ha. ha.
I’ll feel bad about what I eat when my bloodworks and health will be anything else then perfectly fine. So far the evidence is saying my way is the right way for me. I have no problem with other people’s ways There is no one good way, end of shaming. ☺
And yes, he is wearing a ton of make-up in that pic. I don’t wear that much make up. That’s more make up than I wear in a year!!! I don’t even wear make up when I go to the coffee shop so if any one wants to fall in love with me, is going to see me in all my non-make up glor….
Where did that come from???
Nah, neither do I wear that much make-up. But then again, I don’t have to because a) my skin is really good and b) I am not an actor 😀
Where did what come from?
It came from probably the same place mine came from. I don’t wear it because I don’t like taking the time to put it on. My skin is uber sensitive (rosactia) and the chemicals in it and in the stuff to take it off turn me red red red!
I’ll just say make up and good looks don’t make a person healthy in either mind or body and will stop it there 😊
I’m from the south. Most southern women (ie – my 17 year old niece) will NOT step out of the house until every hair is in place and every drop of make up is applied just right.
Me? I dont’ care. I only wear make up for special occasions… interviews, weddings, funerals. That’s it.
I’m glad my eyesight is still 20/20 too lol
Agreed, there are things we can’t control. I am not food motivated, not that it Is obvious by the size of my butt, however, I am finicky about what I put in my mouth. Ice cream, yes, pickles, yes, black jelly beans (hubs says that is the liver of candy) meat? Depends on what it tastes like. I never developed a palette for fast food or what I call fake foods. When the movie Schreck came out my hubs bought green twinkies. I had never eaten one before, but after one bite, I had to spit it out. It tasted like plastic and plaster. Eww. So to each his or her own. Just don’t expect tongue action if you smell like garlic. (Ahem, that last part is reserved for the hubs’ tongue.) 😈💋
I don’t know what Mickey Dee’s seasons their hamburger with but it sets me on fire! And the Burger King here is blander than bland. Spawn loves to cook and I let him. Right now I wish he’d go get me a COKE and a chocolate bar!!!
PS – got the goodie box and unpacked it this afternoon. They’ve changed my age groups (older) and I have my first 2 groups tomorrow. We are going to ENJOY!!! I have a b4 x 6 rug and a big big pillow. This weekend I’ll get some more big pillows and we’re just going to lay in the floor and have DEAR time (Drop everything and read)
I’m all excited. Really! The Angry Bird Pen is mine.
Ooooh, I forgot to mention that I like nuts, crunchy nuts, dried fruit too, but almonds, Brazil nuts, pecans, walnuts. Forgot all about nuts. Now I’m gonna have to visit the store after I get done at the instacare. Yep, I’ve been infected by the Hubs, and reading through here while I wait my turn. 😈
Cinnamon-Sugar Pecans will be the death of me.
OH NO!!! Feel better soon! (Tama-flu. You need Tama-flu!!!)
