Matt is a good guy, and sometimes I feel like I'd be a good mentor for him in the future. He's one of my favorite federalists. He's active, personable, engaged and respectful to others, and he seems to take his jobs seriously. The right needs more of that. It's incredibly important. I liken his campaign to a startup business. He has so much potential and I expect to see him do good things in atlasia. It's bold running for president given his current experience, but he's run a good campaign and this will only make him better in the future regardless of the outcome. I'm supporting Nix because I think he'd make a fantastic president, and I have long enjoyed working with him during our time in The Party and afterwards. But that's not to say I don't think Matt would be a good president. But this is the Labrynth. This is why I love this paper.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:
I will be hit and miss activity wise this weekend. My baby sister is graduating college on Saturday morning, and tomorrow and Sunday are consumed with various parties and events. I will have my iPhone with me, and I will do my best to keep the FP and Executive slots going in the senate given I am sober enough.
Let this be an official announcement. Please, no public threads this time complaining about a bill I may have missed while away. Send me a PM. I am not perfect, but this is a weekend to celebrate for my family.

Especially since they live in a mobile home. I don't know many who are well off living in mobile homes. I don't know anyone living in mobile homes period, but what's beside the point.
Also, did anyone else giggle when he called the kids father their daddy instead of addressing him like another man would address him? It's like he doesn't even think he's an adult himself.

He's also doing himself no favors by having his heaviest meal at dinner. I'm not trying to be overly critical, but if he wants to lose weight I'm going to offer my advice even though I know it'll be ignored, because his mom cooks for him and he is beholden to her schedule and eating wishes.

I mean, that's fine, but look what you ate. Fatty red meat, bread, potato chips. It also depends what type of meat you're using. It sounds a bit suspect that 3 sloppy joes, chips is only 700 calories. The 3 buns are the worst. Even though they're wheat, that's a ton of carbs, and carbs turn to sugar, spike your insulin levels and tell your body to store fat.

Oatmeal is great. I usually eat eggs or drink a protein shake in the mornings though. Not a lot of fiber but protein is most important in the mornings.
I also recommend you eat your larger meals earlier in the day and not snack all day and load up at dinner, since all you will do is go to sleep/sit around until bed.

King brought me here in 2004.
Yeah, me and Duke were both on a Mac users forum. Their political board was terrible because owning a Mac was even more liberal hipster than it is now. I found this board after looking up election whatifs from 2000 here. #grin

No wonder you aren't liking salads if you refuse to put dressing on them. There is nothing wrong with olive oil and lemon, as there are a lot of health benefits from eating olive oil - it's low in saturated fat after all. It's much better than eating lots of animal fat (sloppy joes), processed foods (rice crispies) or hot dogs.
Like others have said, this will require a life change. I am not advocating you changing completely at once, but we've been discussing your weight for years and have seen no progress whatsoever.
And your mindset must change or you will get nowhere. I can still enjoy meals a whole lot without stuffing my face with sugar, carbs, processed foods, and saturated fats. I enjoy my meals more if they aren't full of those things. Granted, I do enjoy a good burger or some ice cream here and there, but I always feel awful afterwards. I suppose I have trained myself to not enjoy unhealthy things. YOu can get there too if you want it bad enough, and I know you don't right now. I think you have very little interest in actually losing weight.
