Another fine picnic for all of us!

[ScottM]

Phil also took pictures.

 

[Hmerkle]

Hank was shooting some I know.

Nope, not one - I thought about it too late!

 

[Gotcha6]

I know we are all a little thicker than we used to be

I always call it my "COVID 19 (lbs.)" kinda like the freshman 15 in college.

 

[Graywolf]

I seem to recall Phil running around with a camera and taking pictures of the award presentations along with some other shots.

 

[Dee2]

I know I saw a few other cameras going yesterday, it would be great if y’all shared your pics!

Got to find that cable for downloading.

Not me, I lost 60 pounds since the last picnic.

I found it........

 

[Mike Davis]

I found it........

Well at least I haven’t.

They say all diets are just like a yo-yo, down and back up…
I lost it, I’m keeping it off, and I’m not hungry.
Easiest thing I ever did once I learned what to do.

what did you do Mike? I could use to lose about 30# myself

I quit eating all the sugar, bread, pasta, potatoes, corn products, basically anything with a label because all manufacturers use omega six seed oils, sweeteners, and corn byproducts.

Now I eat only real foods that I cook myself. Meat, birds, fish, and green vegetables. My BP went down and I got off all the pills, my A1c went to about half of what it was, my reflux went away, and I have more energy than I had in decades. Sometimes I only eat once a day because I’m not hungry anymore. Never desire snacks, don’t crave candy, turn down cakes and donuts because all that sugar makes me feel sick now.

I tried matching members pictures with those at the picnic. It was difficult, except for Greywolf, spotted him from the parking lot.
When I first arrived I thought "this is my first and may be my last" but after awhile I changed my mind. I enjoyed the door prizes and meeting some new people the most. Stopped at Klingspor on the way home and saw a quart of Waterlox I had won, $37.00! Nice door prize for me!
Really nice people, but yall need to update your profile pics for newbies like me. I wanted to meet Mike, but never figured out which one he was, lol

I did a similar change. Removed additional sugars (no sweets) but Im having a hard time with pasta and bread, Ive always eaten high quality breads ( whole wheat etc) and trying to limit my intake nowadays . I agree too, I eat almost zero processed foods anymore. It was working , dropping some weight but it stalled out, I guess I may need to completely eliminate a few things as you did.

I’m glad you enjoyed yourself, I’m also glad you rethought coming back. We are a group of folks who are figuring things out as we go. Not everything in life is spit shined and polished. as far as identifying Mike, I dont know, tall, graying hair, large mustache. You can’t miss him.

From Phil’s pix, Mike Davis is on the left.

Yep, see the name on the shirt, maybe I will get to go to one of his classes. Don't know why I didn't catch that.

 

[Mike Davis]

I didn’t see any Shepherds at the picnic…

 

[Robert166]

She would have loved it, definitely a people person dog. Never meet a stranger. So not much of a watch dog.
