Hivejournal: Food Will All Kill Me Dead.

What the frak CAN you eat anymore? Meat's bad for you. "Carbs" are bad for you. There we go, that's pretty much every frakkin' organic molecule.

Yeah, what others have said about eating well, and get out and get a little exercise once in awhile. That should help make the years you have a lot more pleasant and enjoyable to live out.

I eat meat, I eat eggs and dairy, but I keep active and mind my health. I have been cutting down on the carbs, but they're not just unilaterally bad. And my blood pressure and cholesterol are low, and I'm in excellent health in the various quantitative ways the medical profession evaluates such things.

Life is fatal. But enduring its death spiral can still be pleasant.

Exercise is really my biggest issue right now (that, and lots of rich food in easy lunch proximity). Back in February, I started a job that's an unhealthy commute from where I'm living now. Four hours of sitting in the car on top of eight hours parked at a desk has left me precious little get-out-and-take-long-walks time.

Once I figure out some way around THAT little detail, I'll be fine. I just want to get shed of some of this extra girth before it settles in for the long haul.
