I had lunch with some friends this week. We had BBQ ribs, which is not necessarily considered a diet food. One of my resolutions for the New Year was to lose some weight. I had to consider that the ribs were protein that is needed to build muscle. While this is not true that eating meat will build muscle unless the weight lifting that must be included as part of the diet. Unless the person works out very hard and long with resistance training a meat diet without vigorous exercise will more than likely end up as a layer of fat on the body somewhere. The talk between the friends mentioned how as we have made our way to an older age it seems we are a few pounds heavier than we were decades ago. The stories we shared of the different ‘sure fire’ foods and practices for exercise have changed.

It was a moment no one thought would happen – much less come during the 2024 offseason.
