gwalchmai Posted January 16, 2020 Share Posted January 16, 2020 I'm going to lose a few pounds, and the advisors that be say I should drink 64 oz of water every day. I just started and I must say it's taking a conscious effort to drink it, and a lot of planning to always be near bathrooms. Y'all stay hydrated? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dric902 Posted January 16, 2020 Share Posted January 16, 2020 The lovely and long suffering Mamasita Caliente is always bringing me bottles of water during my recovery. I say “that’s the weakest coffee I’ve ever seen” . 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I think my weight is bothering me, I quit eating, I'm not selective. It irritates my wife, but it works for me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have highland, lowland, islands....for diversity....even blended whiskey...although i normally don't drink such beverages. Lagavulin ....everything else is a shot in the dark. Might be ok, might not. The only other drink is black coffee. Extra bitter...like my soul. ? 1 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will promise not the swear (and i have developed it to an art form), get angry, eat too much red meat, and drink more than my share of whiskey and beer. I will even give up my occasional cigar or pipe. But from my cold dead hands will you take my cup of joy. My cup of kindness...my cup of black coffee. 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tadbart Posted January 16, 2020 Share Posted January 16, 2020 Those sadists figure if your gut is full of water, you won't want to put any food in it. And, all that running to the bathroom is exercise. sneaky bastards. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PPQer Posted January 17, 2020 Share Posted January 17, 2020 At the recommended half ounce of water for every pound of body weight, that puts you at 128 pounds. You sure you need to lose weight? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I ordered what I wanted to eat and so did the rest. While talking to me during lunch, my sister reached over to my plate and took a French fry then ate it. When she reached a second time, I picked up my fork and looked at her. I said I will buy you anything you want to eat. But don't you ever take food off my plate! She at least learned some manners while dining with me! There are many things she hasn't learned yet. Edited January 17, 2020 by janice6 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MY sister thinks she can do no wrong. That why she is damn near wrong all the time. When she was young she got along on her looks. Now she still thinks everyone owes her. That boat has sailed.

When I was married a friend gave me a lovely and thoughtful bottle of scotch. A year later my sister in law was visiting and mixed that $300 bottle of whiskey with Pepsi. When I got home from work she asked if it was ok. I told her no. And if she did it again I would run her out the house with an old German rifle and a bayonet. My wife informed her I was not joking. She was ok with the less expensive bottle. The other went to my safe. Eighteen years later I still have about half of that bottle. I haven't seen my sister in law in years...but I keep watching cops on tv. Edited January 17, 2020 by Historian 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
