    If I drank coffee like some drink tea I'd be coffeed off.

    Too much coffee gives me jitters, and runs to the jungle.

    I think the pill route has helped me in the long run, especially for the pain in my hip and joints.




    Remember this?

    What is the context of the above image? Is it from a movie?

    A movie was loosely made (The Battle of the Sexes, 2017) about the epic tennis match which occurred between
    Bobby Riggs (pictured) and Billie Jean King in 1973.
    Riggs touted supplements as aids to his stamina.
    He lost the match.
    It was hailed as a victory for women's liberation, plus the match was highly hyped and made a lot of money.

    Thanks. My background has left me with huge holes in my knowledge of pop culture. I have tried to read a few books about pop culture, but that is NOT how pop culture references are meant to be learned. :Rolleyes

    I loved my college that had so many international students. Being clueless about this stuff was the norm, and unlike them, I didn't care who knew that I was clueless, so I'd ask for everyone's benefit.

    At the moment, I am eating celery.
    That is, while I am waiting for my steak to get done.

    I cooked today. I cooked a big package of pork stew meat with a large onion in my pressure cooker, and have enough for many meals.

    Some of the pork I shredded for pulled pork. I had some of that tonight with a big plate of boiled cabbage, a tangerine, and a tortilla. There are about 3 more meals of this.

    I left enough pork and onions in the broth for 2 bowls of soup. I might add some things and/or thicken this into a stew.

    I froze 4 large hunks of pork that are each just the right size to make a batch of tortellini or a sandwich.

    It takes very little fuel to bring a large pressure cooker to pressure and hold it there for 15 minutes and then just let it sit for an hour. Most any meat will cook to almost mush from that treatment.

    I try and eat food in a 4-6 hour window. Then not eat food for 18 hours. I’m probably more at 7 hour feeding time tho since thanksgiving.


    Blessings

    It was tennis, even a match, and it was certainly hyped, but it was only an epic joke. Riggs—king of the lob—was totally unserious, a clown. The posted pic well represents him.

    He was not a clown all the time.

    Riggs, the son of a minister, began taking tennis lessons at age 12 and progressed rapidly. At age 18 he was ranked fourth in the United States, and in 1939, at the age of 21, he was first in the world. Although he was relatively short in stature—he stood approximately 5 feet 7 inches (1.7 metres) tall—Riggs used speed and a shrewd strategy to overcome more-powerful opponents. He helped the U.S. team win the Davis Cup in 1938, and at Wimbledon the following year he won the singles, men’s doubles, and mixed doubles titles. He also captured the first of his U.S. championships (now known as the U.S. Open) in 1939. After turning professional (1941), Riggs won the 1942 and 1947 U.S. doubles titles, with Don Budge, and the 1946, 1947, and 1949 U.S. singles titles. In addition to his play, Riggs garnered attention for his larger-than-life personality, which included a fondness for pranks. He quit professional tennis in 1951, although he later played in senior events.

    AIR, he was a clown and a joke, or the butt of one, throughout the entire affair, which was the only thing I was referring to.

    Hi I am new to this forum site. Nice to read your comments - I gained a few insights.

    For me, I started with 18:6 Intermittent Fasting to lose weight. I already on my 6th day. I feel okay though I am still adjusting. I am drinking lots of water :D

    Welcome Glerse!

    I have a few books on fasting in my logos library that came in a package that I bought for other reasons. Fasting is on my long list of things to learn about. Solomon said there were an endless amount of books. What would he say about the books we have today? LOL.
