Title: Greetings from California
Post by: Lumpy Waters on June 16, 2014, 06:24:04 PM
Hello, all, new member from California checking in. I sort of stumbled on this forum by way of the old Char Broil forum I was all set to join and then discovered they closed shop. I'm awaiting delivery of a Char Broil BEESR and currently own an electric Char Broil Patio Pistro which I use often for grilling steaks, burgers, drumsticks or finishing off ribs that were cooked in a pressure cooker.  A Weber Kettle grill occasionally gets fired up for Tri-Tip, ribs and chicken. I'm looking forward to learning more about some new things for me, such as smoking and rubs, and learning about various cuts of meat etc. Doctor says I need to cut back on the cholesterol and saturated fat, so the way I look at it, if I am going to be eating less meat then I want to make it really count when I do eat it. Looking forward to participating here, thanks!

Welcome from the Alien Capital of the Universe!   I found this forum when the CB forum was totally overrun with spam.   Never regretted it.    And, like you, pre-diabetic, so have to watch fat intake (plus carb intake) very carefully.   IF you learn HALF what I have learned, you will be in good shape!

Welcome from Southern California!
What he said.Hope you are a big poster,we have a lot of diet/nutrition stuff going on here.Lots to learn and dont fear cholesterol or fat.Just dont over-indulge,stay far from trans fat,and liquid vegetable oils like canola,bad stuff!Eat your butter,not that margarine trash.BAD!Dont eat processed foods with ingredients you cant pronounce,or processed foods in general when you can avoid them, they are bad bad bad!!NO FRUCTOSE!Bad dog,bad! :o ???

No fear,meat is GOOD for you seriously,and so is the fat,just dont eat 4000 calories a day of it unless you are a lumberjack or John Henry working on the railroad.

Ask the Paleo's here,they know the truth about meat and obesity.

If you eat a lot of carbs,you better be an athlete to handle them.If you are sedentary,watch your carbs.

The diet dictocrats are seriously full of bad science,agendas and corruption we swallow like gospel,it isnt.

Start reading and learn from those who ARENT in the pockets of big business.And find out dietary cholesterol wont kill you unless you have genetic hypercholestremia and cant handle cholesterol like the average person.The people who live longest have total cholesterols of 162 to 231 approximately,fact,outside those ranges death rates climb,bet your Dr doesnt even know that,those are FACTS from death records.

Are you on a statin,if so make sure you get co-enzyme Q10,it depletes that level and its an essential vitamin.Look it up,the literature is overwhelming on the topic.

Now hows THAT for a greeting,LOL!

WELCOME!Live long and prosper. ;D
