No more cookies, pastries, cakes, cupcakes, ice cream, doughnuts, candy, soda, sports drinks, energy drinks, pies, turnovers, protein bars, Little Debbies, popcycles, fudge bombs, shakes, dip cones, chewing gum, puddings, milk chocolate, chocolate milk, sweet coffees, sweet teas, sweet bread, pop tarts, sweet juices granola bars and a few others.

I started avoiding this stuff last August (9 months ago). I'm never going back to eating it again. All my friends and family who are sick and in the hospital still eat this stuff. I feel as good or better than when I was 21 years old. Stopping sweets saved me from a lifetime of taking medicines. A lot of people my age take 4 or more medicines a day.

Sugar triggers a cascade of inflammatory reactions in the body. When we eat sugary foods or refined carbohydrates, it causes a spike in blood glucose levels, then the pancreas produces insulin to circulate sugars to be used as energy in our cells. Diets that are chronically high in sugary foods can lead to insulin resistance, a state where blood sugar becomes poorly managed in the body.” Insulin resistance can lead to health issues such as metabolic syndrome and diabetes, so it’s definitely something to avoid says nutritionist Lola Ross.

Our bodies are simply not designed to contend with huge amounts of sugar. “Our palaeolithic ancestors were thought to consume around 20 teaspoons of sugar a year whereas today, with added sugars being so ubiquitous in our food systems, the average American consumes around 53 teaspoons a day,” Ross points out. While exclusionary diets are never recommended, when it comes to sugar, experts agree that cutting down on added and unnatural forms of sugar—not fruit—would do us all good in the long term

I quit sugar, caffine, processed food and curbed my carb intake.If you eat sugar it will switch off the full sensors in your brain so you eat more then needed to sustain yourself.Good job by you its not easy to do,especially since it's added to everything to get you to crave and consume more.

Like you, I haven't fired a shot in years, yet I carry my loaded shotgun whenever I'm out in the woods, from pure force of habit which also discourages anyone not known to me from walking up on me where there are no witnesses. Don't leave home without it haha.

I choose to hang out in extremely remote locations these days so it’s pretty unlikely that someone’ll jump out from behind a tree and say “BOO”. Anyway I think the girls wouldn’t allow someone to go through with such an ill conceived course of action 🤣🤣🤣 But just in case, l am pretty good at out weirding the weirdos.

Indeed those dapper hounds, resplendent in their Saville Row dinner jackets, would put the fear of God into any mortal with a meaningful glance at the potential adversary's retracted gonads, thereby encouraging respectful courtesy to the dog handler, just like in the Old West.

Hey Swamp Thang,
my apologies for not responding to your most bodacious reply but it’s not often l drop in these days. Hope you’re all doing well and battling through.
Just thought I’d share a couple of photo bombs.
