Oh, brother. I can see why nobody does Atkins anymore. It’s kind of gross. I love meat as much as the next guy, but I’m not sure I like it this much. You see, I’ve been going out of my way to make sure that I’m still eating a significant number of calories so that [...]

The “Good News” from my corner market: That’s right! They’re selling butter and cheese and all kinds of cans of meat! Is this just a sign on the door of a market? I say no. I say it’s a sign from the universe that I should be going on Atkins. I start piling on the [...]

So, I’ve been kind of wondering what I wanted my next diet to be these past couple of days.

My evil, big corporation diet has come to an end and capitalism has made me skinny. Well, not quite skinny but it was a fairly successful diet while I was on it. It might not be for everyone, but it worked for me. It was cheap. It was easy. It was tasty enough. And as American [...]

And another diet winds down. I have to tell you, there were a lot of doomsday predictions that didn’t come true. I heard that I was going to be tired all the time, that my skin would break out, that I’d be sick to my stomach, but none of those things happened. I feel fine, I [...]

The diet goes forth. Nothing new to report. A friend of mine asked me how I stick to the diet. I don’t really know how I do it. Not sticking to it is just not an option I even consider. Here are more of my thoughts on it… How to stick to a diet I [...]

I’ve been reading a history of Coke these past few days that is pretty fascinating. It’s called For God, Country & Coca-Cola by Mark Pendergrast. If this was a more sophisticated blog I would have that as a link to Amazon and if you bought it through there I would make a quarter or something. [...]
