    Doc,

    You know, you should really wander around the University with the gear and see how Campus Safety, with all their new toys, treat a hardened vet like yourself. Maybe you should take the musket.

      I have gone from one to two jelly donuts a day, but no alcohol.

        I've done a number on my "situation." I've cut out almost all processed sugar, cut way down on fat, and down to 150 grams of carbs a day. Fruit and veggies all the way! As far as working out, I'm using P90X... painful stuff but makes you feel like a million bucks after you take a shower from sweating off the fat!

        Good luck all!

          I have been cutting my carb and sugar intake and watching what I eat and how much I eat. I pair this with rideing my bike 15-20 mile every other day. I have been hard at this routine since August. I have lost several pounds this way.

                I have been drinking all-natural soy protein shakes for breakfast and lunch and hitting the gym as much as possible. Of course my beer intake has greatly increased.

                  For Lost Tribes, I climbed 4,000 vertical feet per week in the Colorado mountains (8,500' elevation). That's roughly 400 flights of stairs. I'll try the same for Bummers, and then come down to sea level.

                        Our small campaigner company for the Ft Sanders battle, did a seven mile preservation march this past weekend. Faired rather well, but I now know exactly which boots I am not using for Bummers! I had no beer or cigars for the march and I made it anyway.

                        Cheers

                                I was walking the park trails in kit about 3-5 times a week up until a week ago. Then I caught the H1N1 virus. Then I walked from the bed to the couch to the bed to the couch for about a week. When my strength gets back up I'm going to walk some trails again. Hope this is enough.
