Heart attack on a plate. Looked nasty to me.

I'm still here, colestrol rating 3, and I just burn any fat off.

Must be one of the lucky ones.

Been eating fat cheese and meat more or less exclusively for two years. Cholesterol is normal. Losing weight too; just wish I could resist the regular 'fall-off' for two rounds of bread for a bacon sandwich. :lol:

One egg? One slice of cheese? One piece of bread? I eat more than that waiting for breakfast. My idea of a good start to the day would be 3 slices of bacon quarter pound of blood pudding 2 or 3 eggs sunny side 2 pieces of toast with butter and jam or peanut butter 2 cups coffee with real cream and sugar and a couple of single serve yoghurt with fruit bottom to finish. Facing the day with less is just depressing. Not to say I often get all this as my wife wants more milage from me yet. But she can't watch me all the time.

"my wife wants more milage from me yet." As euphemisms go, this one had me admiring....

Strangely , my doctors are more worried about weight loss than obesity since I'm a cancer patient . They would prefer my going about my keeping at my natural 250 or so pounds on a 6 foot 3 frame with less cholesterol , but they are mostly astounded by my blood pressure. It is a good day when either figure cracks the three figures you see. Many times a nurse gets to flicking the sphygmamonometer with a finger to make sure it's not stuck or something. During a hospital stay (operation to get me some bladder space) they would not let salt on my food be considered. It became a tug of war with me chanting "heart strong ,privates screwed up". I lost a fair bit of weight on that stay. Then I got home to my wife and her fabulous cooking and got back to normal. Eating is only fun when it's FOOD.

You have my sympathies. Daughter's B.P. is normally so low, they usually think - like your medics - she's dead, just hasn't fallen down yet. Then, the antics of "experienced" A. & E. staff trying to find a vein for (a blood sample) with low pressure in it is initially astounding, then intensely worrying, followed by completely infuriating. The fact that someone properly trained - anaesthetists usually - can find Ness's floppy vein while saying "you should just feel a little sharp stab?" (three seconds?) is proof of some severe shortcomings in training across the gamut of N.H.S. staff.

I actually made the egg cheese sandwich for lunch - it was very tasty but I paid for it later which chronic indigestion !! I'm not used to fry ups being on a low residue diet.

Sam that's a bit harsh on NHS staff - I've just spent 2 weeks in hospital where I had daily blood samples taken and cannulas changed every 72hrs.
Your veins shut down and don't always cooperate - sometimes what looked like a good one would stop flowing and they would have to find another one.
Nicest time having things changed was when I was knocked out under a GA - couldn't feel a thing!

I get your drift DF, but:

What is the main ingredient in that sandwich?
The same foodstuff you find accompanying most 'fast/junk' foods;
The thing I gave up (along with sugary food, and other starchy stuff) to start losing weight.

It's not the 'burgers' wot do the damage, it's the buns! :lol: :wink:

I just wish I wasn't addicted to granary. The whole process might be quicker. 8)

Actually what was different?

Fried egg, x1
Fried bread x1
butter a knob
a piece of cheese x1

=

Corn flakes = bread
Milk = butter
egg
piece of cheese (is milk)
so egg was the only extra ingredient from a normal cereal breakfast? and that is natural.

 

[Benchwayze]

Woody.

That's the point. Cereals are not a natural food.
Natural foods are those you catch, pick from a bush, or dig from the ground. (And even spuds are starchy and fattening.) To have cereals we have to grow the wheat and then process it to make those cereals; and you would think twice if you realised the chemical processes that go into 'shredding' that wheat! Same goes for bread, along with any other wheat product you can think of. We have been conditioned to believe these processed foods are good, because initially they grow in the fields. Yes they do, but you can't really eat a lot of wheat, straight from the plant. Agriculture and wheat consumption started only around 15,000 years ago; not much out of the million or so years we have been around, and not enough for us to have evolved into 'wheat-eaters'.

Personally I have to struggle to resist an addiction to bread, (due to the sugar in it). It's my nemesis! I eat it, I stop losing weight. I can't even take meat that has been grain fed. So I don't touch anything made from wheat unless, as I said, I fall to temptation! If you can retain your 'slimness' without worrying what you eat I envy you my friend!

Best of luck and enjoy you wheaties!
I cant! :lol:

Fair 'nuff Rod/Harbo, I was not blunderbus castigating NHS over-worked Staff; in general, they by-and-large do a fine job. It's just that the plethora of 'managers' don't seem to be able to organise consistency of training across the various clinics my M.E./S.V.T./other problems daughter has had to put up with. I counted 12 'goes' the other night in Casualty - and that was just the back of one hand....yes, he was an "experienced" Staff Nurse......on the other hand (literally!!) the 'gas man' one week earlier plumbed Ness in with one go, while asking her to verify the spelling of her middle name. What really bugs me is that her primary problem is Arrhythmia - for which 'bloods' are needed speedily to check for heart damage enzyme indicators - and if the practioner is slow/poorly trained/whatever, those pertinent results are delayed, while damage contiues. With heart problems, speed is of the essence.
