Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire Diet restrictions as you age?

I eat the same stuff I always have, just trying to ear less of it.

My diet has expanded.... I no longer even get indigestion when eating Italian....dairy??? Never had a problem....Next month I'll be 67. It seems the older I get, the more I crave peppers cooked in my food...

When I eat corn and poop........I can see the corn in my poop.

The DI was ahead of his time on dietary nutrition:

"No bread, no corn, no pie/cake/desserts of any kind, no whole milk, no beans, no butter, no sugar, no potato's/candy/ice cream/salad dressings or peanut butter!"

In the past few weeks I've lost over thirty pounds by giving up carbs. That's all I did aside from intermittent fasting. Haven't worked out or changed my daily routine. Just the dietary aspect...

I'm 64 but I have no restrictions on anything and can still easily do what I want so far as health goes.
I get the polyps though. They've gotten 1 both times I've had a colonoscopy and they said the last one was some nasty kind. Now I'm down to having to go every 3 years.
Colonoscopies are nobody's favorite but I had no idea there was a little assassin growing in there and I don't want to go out like that. I'll keep doing what the doctor says.

After all these years back up north I still make everything hot.
I got real used to slingin' snot and sufferin' in Texas but nobody up here eats hot food, just me and my brother in law. Now I never get my hot fix unless one of us cooking for just us.
I remember slicing up habaneros and/or similar chiles, sauteing(?) those with onions, some bacon or sausage and other spices and topping hamburgers with burning death mix. What joy.
I'm down to Cholula and Melinda's now but I don't have any plumbing problems so I ain't giving them up.

save it. those are great at pool parties.

Slumlord's? No kidding...

Fireball2: At age 48 I self diagnosed the reason my intestines were bleeding to be somehow directly related to my intake of milk!
I had drunk milk all my life and in large quantities until around age 47 when I began bleeding and becoming nauseous when I drank a glass of milk.
I quit the milk - then the bleeding and nausea quit.
About every 3 years I try some icey cold milk with a sandwich or a piece of pie and the symptoms return for a day or two.
Other than that I pretty much eat and drink what I want.

Get a triple bypass and you can eat whatever you like.

Still shove whatever I like down the pipe.

I look at anything with carbs in it and my blood sugar goes up. Eating mostly salads and proteins these days. Very little bread, and I gave up potatoes all together.

Hell is rather be dead!

Doesn't that go for everyone in Oregon?

I like to eat whatever I want, sucks to eat right!!

It's taken a bit of trial and error,.....but over time I've learned not to eat a combination that'll make me chit one o'them fire starter logs.

Last time it happened,...the sumbitch had 47 rest rings in it.

I thought I was gonna bust a head artery gettin' that fuggin' thing out.

Ever since, I've subsisted on boiled Zucchini and Raisen Bran.

Once a year I do the wild thang and eat a Polish Sausage chased by a dozen Milk o'Magnesia tablets and a pint of prune juice.

I don't drink Jack Daniels anymore.

With apologies to Jimmy Buffett:

~~~Walkin' down new streets the music is loud
Neon signs bring in tumultuous crowds
But he's just an old man, he'd probably get sore
And he don't drink,... Jack Daniel's no more

She and old D-Dan, my what a pair
Doin' the Rhumba as no one else dared
Slidin' and glidin' 'cross Hollywood floors
But he don't drink,... Jack Daniel's no more~~~

What does it matter anymore? Had to give up all you can eat pizza and pitchers of beer by age 35. Now you guys want me to give up milk and potatoes?

Seriously, cutting back on starches does make me feel better, look better, and the doc just says to keep doing what I am doing. I think I'll have a glass of whiskey...
