Maximizing life expectancy/enjoyment
how long were you obese?
how old are you? what is your daily schedule like? -- read and post daily, it works! rosie i like your christ, I do not like your christians, your christians are so unlike your christ. ..............................................gand hi "Ignoramus20526" wrote in message ... After returning from obesity to normal weight (223/177/180) due to a eat no crap/eat less/exercise more approach, I am now thinking about health in general. What I would like to know is, what are the things that a person can do to maximize their life expectancy/enjoyment of life via various natural means (no meds). I want to be clear that I want the maximum life expectancy multiplied by enjoyment of life. So any regimen that makes me live longer but makes me miserable is not something that I would like to consider. I will appreciate references to some non-kooky books that do not advocate spending money on programs affiliated with their authors. I am not interested in having an "extreme body", squatting 500 lbs, etc etc. However I am interested in being fit, agile, strong, and flexible. My current thinking is that the cornerstone of such an approach is doing lots of low intensity aerobic exercise such as walking, plus calisthenics based strength training. Another cornerstone is staying within the normal weight interval. The third cornerstone is eating only natural and healthy food, according to some definition. To me it means eating no heavily processed foods and no sugar. The fourth is to have a stable life and to not work too much. I am aware that there is some scant evidence that living on calorie restricted diet (1500 or so calories per day all the time) also can help one live longer. But smoehow I have a feeling that such a life is either impossible or not satisfying to me. Right now I eat about 1900-2000 calories per day, walk 100 minutes per day, and my weight is relatively stable for the last 3 weeks. I can live on that but not on much less, I think. Does anyone have any comments or book suggestions? i |

He is not a He ; it is consciousness without an object or subject. Well, according to the reference which Chung cites, God IS The Word. And The Word has been around since the beginning. But that invites the question, "What is The Word?" Chung would probably say that The Word is the reference from which he cites. However, that reference, particularly that part which describes God as The Word and The Word being around in the beginning, was written a few centuries after the death of Jesus of Nazareth. And Jesus lived, even according to The Word, at least a couple of millennia after The Beginning. And the exact parameters of The Word weren't determined until the Council of Rome, about 350 years after Jesus died, and even then, The Word didn't become immutable until the Council of Trent, less than 500 years ago. So how is it that The Word been around since The Beginning, in a form that is "expressed in apt words and with infallible truth"? (Pope Leo XIII, 1893) The circularity of that reasoning is almost staggering. Of course, none if this precludes a belief in God; it just makes it nearly impossible to believe in the infallible accuracy of The Book, which seems to be the standard definition for The Word. |
