DC's New Year, New Life 2019

Glad to see that protein intake up !!
 
Yeah, I dont get it. Maybe it was an oldschool parent and they didnt have a switch, but needed something to beat their badass kid with ����*♂️
Maybe you cut someone off, or parked to close to someone in a garage... Hmmm this might have to be my go to move instead of spitting loogies on the door handles of inconsiderate ass hats that park right up on my car to the point I can barely get in. Just take the driver side wiper and let them figure it out the next time it rains!!!!
Gave a thumbs up for the German creatine. :) LMAO! What does that even mean? When you open the bag it says: "Guten Tag." :)
I know right, then to say the purest in the world, their are like 4 main distributors of creatine in the world, it all comes from pretty much the same sources... might be more sources for it now but for years only 4 main distributors selling to all the supplement companies...

No. Lol. I have no idea, but it had a good price. Lol. I never heard of German Creatine either. Lol
Well, it is just really white...
Its the "purest" creatine in the world. Lol
Well played...
Spaghetti is my favorite dish man. It’s the only dish I think that gets better every time you warm it up lol
Well, that and chili, chili is always better a day or two later when all the seasons have had time to really set in.
Dude...

Game. Changer. Lol
Yeah, you know what we call spaghetti with meat sauce and cream, ricotta or cottage cheese? Spaghetti Lasagna!!!! It tastes the same just spaghetti noodles and far easier to prepare!

I actually make my spaghetti with ricotta or cottage cheese quite often. Try it one day. Just drop a half cup of cottage cheese on your noodles then poor your meat sauce over it. You may want to nuke it for a second to let the cheese melt or get hot. I normally just move some of the sauce into a smaller pan and drop the cheese in and give it a stir to let it heat up and melt a little but you can put it under the sauce and nuke it for a minute if just trying it. Nice way to add in another 12-24g of protein to your meal on top of the meat.

Actually, no I legally park in a handicap spot in the parking garage at work. Now there are alot of a$$hats that like to try to park over the blue lines inbetween cars, and thats how I got my truck hit before once. But, where I park, it is physically impossible to park to close. And if they try to argue my handicap status I have a state issued handicapped placard, and my license plate clearly shows I was awarded the Purple Heart.

I was actually being a little silly there. I actually did not realize you were currently disabled with all of your workouts and what not you seem to be in pretty good shape and physically capable.

I am in good shape, but I am and always will be classified as permanently and totally disabled. I dont always use the placard. But at work it gets me close to the door, and when its raining I dont have to run through shopping parking lots. Plus my wife is 100% disabled as well because of her MS, but she is doing quite well herself. Still not at 100% but closer to 98%

Got ya, just surprised me to see you saying you parked in handicap spots as physically capable as you are. From your service history I just assumed you would sacrifice that convenience just in case someone who really needed the spot showed up.

My mother in law has late stage MS, and it is such a challenge, so good to hear that your wife seems to be doing well now. Does she go through the major cycles where it gets bad then improves a while and then gets bad again or does her state seem pretty consistent? Jan would get pretty bad for a while then improve for a period then it would get more severe again. I definitely feel for you guys, but it is always nice when they are doing better. How long has she been doing well and does she have to do any physical or occupational therapy or is she doing well enough it isn't needed right now?

I give it up most of the time. But since I work in a hospital there are a ton of handicap open.
As far as the wife she was diagnosed back in '09, but they say she has had it for quite a long time. She has Relapsing Remitting MS. When she was on the shot she had her good days, and bad days. She even did a few stints in the hospital for steroid injections. Since she has been on the daily pill(about 1 1/2yr), she has stayed active, and it has stabilized for the most part. Her MRI's have been coming back stabilized, but she does have a black hole, and some minor damage on the brain stem as well. But, she says staying active volunteering at the school, and working out has kept her good. She has been dealing with a buldging disk at the C5-6, and started PT for it last week. Little numbness in her arm. But, doing good.

That is great to hear regarding the progress on the pills. We almost had Jan on them before she decided to go back home to live with her "boyfriend". Unfortunately we think he is using her for her government check but she did not want to be at our house any longer. She didn't like doing any of the therapy and decided she wanted to go back to California because we told her while she lived in the house she had do her therapy to try to improve. That we weren't okay with setting the example for the kids that it was okay to give up on life and do nothing. Total bummer because she has the same type and it would be great for her to get some more recovery. Now that she is back out their they have not even tried to get her back to the doctor to get on the meds. No matter how many times we asked them to go.

You must have never had Community Coffee
That's my boy, completely loyal to his area! Community is good though!

I kind of expected to see you mention this since very NOLA oriented. It is a nice blend as I am sure you know, and a little less caffiene than normal coffee.

Have not. Good shtuff?
Yes it is good. When I want an upgrade from the normal name brands I will buy a big bag of Community Coffee. It is pretty popular in Texas, I wouldn't put in the best category but would put pretty close the top when it comes to the price range it is in!!!! Most nicer convenience stores or Big Truck stops use it too.

Yes, very good
Agreed! in my opinion probably one of if not the best in it's price range.

Cafe Du Monde is good. But to me it is better in house. Kinda like getting Starbucks coffee for your home coffee pot. It's ok, but when when you get it in house its so much better. Plus, when going to Cafe Du Monde, you can get fresh coffee, and homemade fresh made daily beignets

Yeah, I loved it there when I went. Didn't even know exactly what beignets were until my local buddy took us their to have them. Kinda like a sopapilla, but I got quieted down quick when I said that there. My buddy was like No, don't say that here... LOL However the coffee and chickory was awesome. I have had it at the house and really enjoyed it but yeah no comparison to fresh ground up there.

Probably one of my favorite breakfast foods. Eggs, hash browns and corned beef hash.

Your food choices have definitely improved! And protein looks to be up quite a bit, good job.

I told everyone I was on Vacation, and now that I am now back into a regular track. Things are back to normal for me

Common meal for me is 6 whole eggs, onions, peppers, cheese, hot sauce, and half a can of corned beef hash. Probably have that meal 5 to 8 times a week. Easy to prep, easy to cook. Usually just make a huge pan of it and divide into seperate tupperwear meal containers. Good work DC
