Media is media, right?
Exactly.
Did you tell him you were already eating a pretty low fat diet, Matt? Sorry about the liver.
Spike: I'm not a monster. Xander: Yes! You are a monster. Vampires are monsters! They make monster movies about them! Spike: Well, yeah. Got me there.

He knows, and approved at my physical. I can handle a short-term austerity diet, but there's not all that much fat I can trim out long-term; I already avoid most sweets and baked goods, gravy, fatty meats, and sour cream and use butter sparingly. A couple of healthier meat choices a week and cutting out the bowlful of chips I have every other day or so are about it.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Mr. S is having frequent meltdowns.(Usually when he is prevented from doing something he wants to do and we don't want him to do it.)
I have realized that "the toddler meltdown" scans to "The Final Countdown". (You're welcome.)

That's a drag, Matt. Hope something works out.

Our wings are not tired.
Matt, my cholesterol was bad, but already being vegetarian there was little for me to give up. I did the opposite by adding the good stuff, like oatmeal daily, and had quite dramatic improvement in my numbers. Maybe something like that would work better.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
I am enjoying responding to mac's request with his recent insults to me about how useless I am.
I am on strike except for car rides. There is plenty of food available to him, but I am not making anything specifically for him.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I thought it's sugar, not fat, that causes fatty liver? That's why it happens with high alcohol intake? Like, to get foie gras you stuff the goose with corn, not bacon... IDK IANAD

Maybe—I'm going to switch to Splenda or aspertame with coffee and see if that makes a difference.

I'll give anything a try at this point. I hate oatmeal, but I can choke it down if I have to.
