we're going to play tennis in humboldt park in the spring. I was sitting near 200 (5'11) but having surgery and the post-op recovery inadvertently got me back down to 185. I recommend the surgery diet

So it's time to check in.
I have now lost 10 lbs, mostly fat, by cutting out alcohol from my diet and sticking to meals I prepare myself from unprocessed and minimally processed food, and doing minimal routine exercise (rowing, kettlebell, situps and pushups)
Not doing the paleo thing and don't intend to but I feel I have also benefitted from eating raw and fermented ingredients at every meal.
Anybody else doing their thing this month?
Also, I have set a goal to gain back 15 lbs of muscle mass in 6 months starting February. I'm down to 170 right now so I think it's doable but will be starting a 3200 calorie bulking diet next month and lifting again. Anybody have any good resources for this sort of plan? I went to the workout thread but it's way too sunbizzy up in that *****....

Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuck. I wish I would have seen this thread earlier, as I would have participated.
If you ever want to have a great experience, go to a party and not drink a single drop of alcohol. A couple years ago a -1 brought me to her company party and asked me not to drink, and I complied. It's an amazing thing to watch.

As I recall, people liked me a lot better at that party because I was sober. I haven't taken that advice since.

Jeesh, I wish I would have read this sooner. Are you still alive?
You need to spread your caloric intake throughout the day. I don't think you are supposed to fast like that and do heavy manual labor. You are asking your body to create fat so that you can store the calories you consume AFTER you already needed them.

I think the Paleo crowd takes shit a bit too far...but in general there are pretty decent eating guidelines in the middle of some of the bullshit IMO. I found this list a little while ago and planning on trying some of them out:

I like the convenience of the crock pot. Plus I get tired of eating chicken breasts, vegetables, rice and protein shakes all the time.

I've been oil pulling for the last two weeks, and I did not expect much from it. But I'll be damned, it works.

I've read just a bit about this and found it intriguing. What kinds of benefits have you seen?

This... I have had so many people tell me "Dude, just do protein shakes in the morning and then do plain Chicken breast with from vegetables and/or rice, you will drop weight like crazy" at least in college when I was on my own for 1 summer I tried Chicken and veggies/rice for dinner everyday and honestly I was able to do it for like 2 weeks and I couldn't anymore. Dreading eating your meals is no fucking way to live lol.

I had(key word) a tear in my gumline since I was a teenager. The gumline is healed, along with the rest of my gums feeling tighter, stronger, and where any sensitivity existed before is gone now. I take meticulous care of my teeth and gums, and have for a long time. I have a limited sugar intake, and I have drunk the same amount of soda in the last two years, as an average person may have in a week. Right before Christmas, I made some bulk order of different nuts, oils and whatnot to save money, since it's cold outside and cheaper to buy a few barrels of things I commonly use, than buy them for full price throughout the year. I bought 8 gallons of extra virgin coconut oil along with my purchase, and in searching for recipes and uses, I stumbled across oil pulling. Since I had the oil for other uses, why not see if this worked too?
As far as teeth and not gums, I can't be sure than any changes are due to the oil, but my teeth are a shade whiter. I guess that's worth something. As far as my skin, no real change yet, but I'll keep doing it, maybe some bad spots will start to heal as well. It tastes nice, so it's better than chewing gum(I don't chew gum, but I consider the task a similar trade off).

That's very interesting. I broke a back molar about 4 years ago and it never really hurt or had any decay but I had to stop chewing gum until I could afford to get it repaired and because of that, I started getting cavities left and right. I finally got a crown slapped on it last week and it's been amazing to eat on both sides of my mouth and chew gum again.
I'll have to do some more research on that. I wonder if it'd be helpful after I get my wisdom teeth extracted this Friday to help them heal faster once I get over the initial healing process.
