Protein should remain the same for high intensity as for building muscles.

So why do people accumulate so much junk? 99% of everything you own is junk. As one of the hundreds of thousands of world wide toy collectors I take offence at that. I love my 'junk' and I have a great Thai wife that helps me buy it here from Japan - she also knows what it is worth and where to sell it to fund her life when I am dead !!! I quite like having a little fun with my investments. we already own 2 houses (Thailand and UK), couple fruit farms, we save money each month and are reasonably ok. I do not want 'life experiences' , I prefer something I can hold than a memory of a place. I can hold a toy when I have dementia - not remember a holiday !!

Balanced diet is the best solution if you do not have any underlying issues health conditions, that would make keto more beneficial.

Im going to make changes, and quit my present job, and move. To much time to do nothing like being here way to much. Do you mean to tell me that hanging out on here reading all these incredibly interesting posts, isn't having a great life? I thought it was.

It is like I start to believe, going for a morning beer, and sit there to my wife come and carry my ass home, is better than sit here for 4 hours straight everyday. Simular for both, same things is discussed with the same people the same things, and next morning brings the oppertunity to start it all over again. But at least drinking makes you forget where it ended last day, and give a great oppertunity to start it all over again with whites sheets. I start wondering if the same breakfest club ends up here after their morning session at the bar and they had a nap after their wife picked them up

Growing up I learned a lot about history and geography from my stamp and coin collections. My oldest son is also a coin collector and he will inherit my collections, which is of significant value, when I go. As a general contractor, I accumulated a lot of tools and equipment. Now that I have retired all of it has been given to my younger son who is also an independent contractor. I have also gifted two of my properties to each son. I don't consider any of this as junk and neither do my sons.

I eat a lot of eggs, which have a lot of fat. Avocados will have fat. I am not actively seeking out tons of fat. But these foods are high in nutrition and happen to contain fat.

And by junk I mean unused stuff that fills up garages, loft spaces, spare rooms (sometimes even known as junk rooms) and sheds. I've kept very little junk in my life, I've been far too mobile for that and yet I have enjoyed my life to the full. The 2 items that I have kept the longest are my Leatherman multitool and my yoga mat (now used for my daily Qigong practice) 'Life is really simple and yet we insist on making it complicated'. Confucius That depends on your activities... We have a lot of 'stuff' in our house... Skiis, golf clubs, wakeboards, Mountain bikes, road bikes, various other sports items.. BBQ, washer, drier, ovens, microwaves, Espresso Machine, TV's (4 in the house) Sound systems, then the are shelves of decorations, 4x motorcycle helmets.. Tools, tool boxes etc etc the list goes on... All of it useful to me - the Op was presented in a manner that anything owned is junk we don't need because we can't take it with us.... which I disagree with - the things we own compliment the enjoyment of our life....
July 14, 20241 yr Today I was standing with Mrs Cow on "my" land watching the house construction nearing completion. A rather esoteric thought entered my mind as it travelled to the future and I imagined one day a hundred years from now a couple totally unconnected to me or Mrs Cow would be standing on that very spot contemplating whether to renovate or demolish the old house standing on this particular block of land, built by an unknown someone in the past. The story remains the same only the players fade into the dust of history, to be replaced by new players, ad infinitum. We own nothing, we are just caretakers for others... Dust in the wind.

July 15, 20241 yr Neither of my parents worked, I missed kindergarten and had free lunches for 12 years. The local shop let us have a tab that we paid off when the dole money came through. We wore more clothes to cut down on the heating costs. I think we might not all die the same.
