  2. high protein, high fat, low carb? low fat, high carb? low fat low carb? It's the Ideal Protein diet; low carb, low sugar, low fat. Tons of veggies, protein-packed diet foods and 8 oz. of meat with dinner each night. I had been losing weight since the beginning of the year on my own, but then had a blood pressure spike that medicine could only get down so far. Doing this through my cardiologist's office (my heart has checked out as healthy, thankfully) and I've lost 20 pounds in 3 weeks. If you stick to the diet, men lose about 4-7 pounds a week and the protein and supplements prevent you from losing lean tissue. I have to go in each week to be weighed and measured, and they check my BP and do blood work every few weeks to make sure everything else is working fine. Ultimately it's something I could do on my own if I really invested the time and effort in making all of the food and measuring out the supplements, but I do much better with this sort of thing the less work I have to do. Can't argue with the results so far; sleeping better, BP down to normal levels and generally feeling MUCH better. I'll probably keep it up for another couple of months to get back to a weight I haven't been at in over a decade. My 70 year old, 5'9" dad had peaked at 190 lbs., but his doctor was concerned about his cholesterol and pre-diabetes. He went on a similar diet (which sucked for him, because he loves wine and bread and such), but he's down to 155 in less than 6 months
  3. Also I seem to be like 5 minutes behind on mlb.tv. So annoying
  4. Edwards looks like a little kid wearing Cubs pajamas
  5. I can only give him so many bad luck points when his hard contact goes to the same damn spot every other ball he's hit this season has gone Exactly. He's slugging like .329. Split a damn gap, you bastard
  6. That worked as well as it possibly could. Nice heads up running by Hammel
  7. Heyward's SLG being lower than his OBP is so gross
  8. This just in: Brewers are a bad baseball squadron
  9. Reports of Fowler's demise were greatly exaggerated
  10. Yeah, that's my job
  11. Rotoworld didn't have a corresponding move. Dex off the DL maybe?
  12. I woman here in Columbus filed a police report against Zeke Elliot, accusing him of domestic abuse. The incident allegedly occurred this morning in a parked car, but another woman in the car (plus three other witnesses near the car) all say they didn't see him hit her. She made an Instagram post about it but has since deleted it.
  13. The easiest solution to game length is shorter commercial break, which will never ever ever happen
  14. Yeah, we're falling into "well, X does it worse, so why should we bother to try?"-territory. The rallying cry of the pro HB-2 folks
  15. Strasburg lost for the first time this season
  16. Well first of all, "tranny" is a derogatory term, so you'll have to wrap your head around some respect for the people you're taking about before we can have an intelligent conversation
