Yes!
I purposely mispelled Potato. Those particularly starchy foods are NOT my favorites! Why? They have to have a tendency to Broaden my Horizon. I worked hard and long to get below Two Hundred Pounds, Well, actually Two fifty! I love MEAT ! Be it Chicken,Pork, Lamb, etc. Lamb? Yup ! I like my Gyros and other Greek stuff Too Much!
Here in TEXAS I have yet to find a properly prepared Sicilian style Meal. So I go Mexican or Tex-Mex. This tastes close but then no pasta. Gotta have my pasta! Now back to those innocent, Starchy Potatoes, Don't get me wrong I love them. But not so large I get three meals out of one stuffed with everything but the kitchen sink.
There's a place called "Spud Ranch" Great stuffed baked Taters. But There's enough for Three in my reduced amount diet. Reduced? Not Really, just sensible. For instance a Small( tennis Ball) sized baked Potato, Squash or Broccoli as sides and a Six ounce rib eye. is a big meal for me. Remember, our bodies are like fine classic cars, You get to much sludge from not changing fluids enough, and they don't run right!
When I was a young un, OOH, that was a while back, I could devour an 18 ounce steak, a Large Baked Potato, Three Six ounce sides and Dessert too! Problem was that with the larger the meal, I didn't realize that I was suffering the larger Body too. Six Pack? Well, at one time, Then an Eight pack and so on. When I had my Cardiac Surgery I weighed 257 now I weigh 191 and dropping.
Pretty soon I will have to get some new shorts. I wear the light cotton ones and "T" shirts mostly and I have just about cinched the waist band as small as it was designed. Yes! even in the cold weather! Walking five or six miles makes me Hungry, So I eat Strawberries and other fruit. I love to Model and Scratch-Build, and I told my Son that he will have to stay out of my stash until I turn125 then he can have at it. There is so much beauty out there and so many nice folks I just can't get enough, KnowhatImean? Eat Sensibly and Enjoy!!
