Default A Basic Question, Please.

Let's see....The folks here love to eat and cook and shop and
post on the Usenet, surf the Web, and watch TV, from what I've
been able to see.

None of those things burn a lot of calories, but all this
eating sure takes a lot of them in.

Let's have everyone post their weight and height here, shall
we, along with their age and diet-style and how many times
a year they go to the doctor.

I'll kick things off:

Height: 5'10

Weight: 163

Age: 54yrs

Diet-Style: Pure Vegetarian

Doctor-Trips/Year: None

--------------------------------

Your turn:

Height:

Weight:

Age:

Diet-Style

Doctor-Trips/Year

Is this the new center for science in the public interest teams up with
PETA study to determine that all foodies are overweight and that eating
meat is the cause of all illness?

We should add fitness level too.

Since you don't want to answer, I'll assume the following:

40 years of age.

5'10

250#

You eat a a lot of animal products.

At least a dozen trips to the doctor a year.

Fitness level: 1 out of 10

It isn't the cause of all illness. But consuming a lot of flesh
from animals that have been mistreated and pumped full of
chemicals and eat their dead brothers is not a real bright idea.

Especially if you are sitting around on your fat butt all day.

We should add fitness level too.

Well, *I* don't care who knows! Besides, who's going to know if I'm lying?

Height: 6' 3"

Weight: 220 lbs

Age: 46

Diet-Style: Whatever I want. That equates to pretty much following the food
pyramid. My main protein source is chicken (I prefer dark meat), second is a
toss-up between seafood and pork, third is beef, then everything else. The
bulk of my nutrition comes from varied grains; I almost always have some
kind of grain-based starch at a meal. It's not as monotonous as it might
sound, since besides the usual rice, wheat, and corn products, I include
barley, millet, quinoa, amaranth, buckwheat, and spelt. I also enjoy eating
vegetables, provided they're prepared competently. Dave, you stupid troll,
if you want to know the "diet-style" of the posters here, why don't you read
the threads where we all say what we had for dinner (or Christmas, or
breakfast, or any other meal)?

Tonight I had cornbread and split pea soup for dinner, but the soup wasn't
vegetarian because it had bacon and pepperoni in it -- thanks for the
recipe, Carol! I had a yogurt parfait for dessert. But maybe that's not
typical, because I just got back from six days in Las Vegas, where I *lost*
a pound. Typical or not, it's what I *wanted*, which guideline has served me
pretty well so far.

Doctor-Trips/Year: 1 physical exam, in which I'm always told that I'm
healthy as a troll half my age. (Since cancer runs in my family, it would be
extreme folly to skip the checkup.)

A pitifully transparent way to boast about your vegetarian diet and weight.
By the way, anyone who is 54 years old and never goes to the doctor is a
pinhead.

Seeing that you are in your 50's, you *should* be making at least one
trip to the doctor a year, just to screen for health ailments that
might not be symptomatically obvious (heart disease, cancer, and
diabetes, just to name three) when easily treatable.

Thank you... was my immediate response as well, which I just posted prior to
reading yours... notice how the pinhead refuses to mention his IQ.

My father in law would fail your test. He used to get up in the morning and
have two spoons full of yogurt, some cereal with fruit, 2 poached eggs with
cheese and salt along with 2-3 slices of toast, each smeared with butter and
honey. He went to restaurants for lunch and usually had red meat with gravy.
He was a big meat eater. Whenever he served a roast he would have seconds,
thirds, maybe a fourth helping. After his wife died his evening meal was
reduced to peanut butter on crackers or cold cuts, and always a double
martini.

The last time I saw him stand on his head and chug a beer he was 86. That
was about the same time I saw him run a half a city block to catch a
streetcar. He rarely went to the doctor. He could still fit into his WW I
army uniform, and he was quite fit and active until he died peacefully in his
sleep a few weeks before his 95th birthday.

My wife inherited her father's eating habits. She eats bacon and eggs for
breakfast, or just hard boiled eggs and cheese if she is in a hurry. She goes
through 1-2 dozen eggs per week, at least a pound of cheese, uses cream in
her coffee (no substitutes). She uses a lot of butter on vegetables. She
eats 2-3 times as much meat as I do, and especially likes red meats. While I
cut off the fat from my meat, she not only eats all the fat on her meat but
often eats the stuff that I cut off. She has no cholesterol problems. She
avoids starch in all forms, and eats very little sugar. At age 59 she is
5'7" and weighs 135, and people are always commenting on how great she looks.

My grandmother almost always had bacon and eggs for breakfast. She had cream
in her tea and smeared bread with butter. She had meat with every meal. She
was never much overweight and died 2 weeks short of her 100th birthday after
breaking a hip. She had survived a broken hip two years earlier.


According to your misguided estimates, they would all have been 250 and
frequent visitors to the doctor and died young.

You can't put everyone in this diverse group into such a
nutshell. I, for one, loathe shopping.

I think it's kind of sad that you have to put down others to
make yourself feel good. Have you considered psychiatric aid?
Seriously, you're only hurting yourself with this kind of
thing...

The "guy" is just one of the lame ass trolls who appear here from time
to time spewing their vegan crap. Feel free to ignore.
