I need to eat more vegetables and I will do so.  Maybe not every single meal, but most meals.  As far as exercise, I need to make the time to do it.

No. Make plans to eat vegetables with every meal. That way, when you fall short of your plan, you still eat vegetables most of the time. Always commit to it.

I really need to lose weight.  I'm sure if I lost even 25-50 pounds, my back would feel better.  So, I am going to try to behave myself the rest of the year except for Thanksgiving Day and Christmas Day.

Good job, that diet lasted three whole sentences!

No, the In New Thing for obese people too lazy to exercise and too lacking in self control to diet is to have lap band surgery.

I'm sure the Tribe will be able to pay to perform it for him by 2023 at the latest, if they start pooling their resources now.

Bushie, you treat eating veggies with every meal as abnormal to the point that it is punishment.  It's not.  Far from it.  All people WHO EAT WELL (which should be the very least of your goals) fortify their diet by including fruits and veggies in every meal.  All of them.  Not corn twice a week or the occasional lettuce and cheese salad.  

AND BUY A DAMN MANGO I GUARANTEE YOU WILL LIKE IT!

That's a good point.  Always aim high so the lower goals are within reach.

Make small changes right now.

Water is a good place to start. Slam 2 glasses of it. Then a few hours later, 2 more. Then, a few hours after that, 2 more.

Starting tomorrow, slam 2 glasses of water as soon as you wake up. Trust me, it WON'T take long before having a sufficient amount of water is a habit you instinctively do.

And each time you have water, drink your glasses quickly. Don't nibble on them. Having 2 glasses that way will take you all of 30 seconds. In fact it takes you longer to fill your glass than to drink it. Smiley

Bushie told us that Native Americans were rich because of casino money, so money should be no object.

Any supermarket worth a damn will have bags of microwavable frozen vegetables that you can buy in bulk for cheap.  5 bags for $5 has been a staple at Shop-Rite for over a decade.



Each bag contains a side of veggies for at least 3 meals, and they come in many varieties.  Only $0.33 per meal.  You just pop it in the microwave for 5 mins and they steam in bag.  Just add a little butter (a little) and you've got your side.  You can literally have a side of veggies with every meal for a week for the price of just one Braum's combo.  That's 21 times that you can celebrate a little victory by eating healthier for the price of 1 time where you feel the defeat of stuffing a greasy ass burger down your throat.

If that were really true, they wouldn't have made him wait like a year and a half for a dental appointment.

That would interfere with the 6 hours of napping and 9 hours of irrelevant football games!

Hell you can exercise with some dumbbells and watch football at the same time, I do it all the time.

It isn't like I am asking him to start lifting heavy or anything like that, 10 pound dumbbells is all I am asking him to get.

Please no canned veggies. They have no bulk and are loaded with salt. Completely defeats the purpose. Get a fresh broccoli crown. Boil for just about 1 minute.  Put some Mrs. Dash on it for flavor. Easiest thing in the world. Are you allowed to use the stove at grandma's or do the same rules apply as at home? Is she your mother's mother or your father's mother?

He never even used the stove at his apartment in Tulsa.  I doubt he's about to start now.

Green Giant steamers are more expensive than other frozen veggies, but Bushie can make them in the microwave.

Reposted. You need to address this:

An inability to admit that your refusal to change (in spite of all the sound advice and ENCOURAGEMENT from so many over the years) has COST YOUR FAMILY UNNECESSARY MONEY is cowardly.

You want us to focus on the good? I tried that with you. A lot. Didn't work. You're no better off today than you were when you started this whole saga. And it is costing your family more now than it ever has.

Maybe it's not intentional, but it's deeply rooted in, at best, ignorance. More likely, you prefer only happiness where no one calls you on your BS.

Your inability to implement the smallest of change to better yourself HURT your family today. Wake up, Jeff. Your inaction has consequences that go beyond you!


Are you getting the picture yet? Your refusal to a) actually work to build a career and study your supposed skills, b) take better care of your health and lose weight and c) learn basic life skills like cooking or shopping on your own IS HURTING OTHER PEOPLE. This is not a consequence-free existence, Jeff. And consequences could hurt more than just you.

Are you happy your history ended up in your family spending ultimately unnecessary money on you? Are you happy they're $100 poorer because of it (and don't give me the $79.99 BS ... add taxes, time and travel, and you cost them $100). A positive attitude means nothing if you ignorantly continue to sh:t on other people.

Keep it up, Jeff. Ignore how you're killing yourself. Your family will have to pay for your funeral, too (average of $10,000). How does that make you feel?

I know things must change.  What I need is a new attitude on my health.  I asked God on the way home from work to give me that new attitude and the desire, willpower, and discipline to make the changes I need to make and stick to them.  In a few minutes, after I finish this glass of unsweetened iced tea, I am going to get me a glass of water.  That will make 4 glasses of water (counting the iced tea as water).  That will be a good finish to what was otherwise a rotten food day.  I didn't have breakfast and I had Whataburger for lunch.  That's a big no-no, I realize.  I felt awful this afternoon and my mood wasn't exactly great, either, because I was mad at myself for ordering and eating such slop.  We had beef and noodle casserole for dinner.  I had one and a half scoops and two slices of bread with the aforementioned iced tea.  Tomorrow, I will probably have Chick-fil-a for lunch and try to eat light when I go to the McDonald's on the turnpike for dinner.  I am seriously considering going back to my no fries and no ice cream diet that I did in September.  I will still eat potatoes when they are served to me, but I will not have any French fries.  Yes, my attitude needs to change and slowly, but surely, I will change this attitude.

Could Bushie speak to his doctor about liposuction?

I was thinking more along the lines of lap band surgery. Worked wonders for Governor Christie.
