Just got home from breakfast.
When I sat down at the table, the server came over and said "Regular or De-caf"?

I said "Beer".

2. You would fit in over here Lefty
Bavarian breakfast is weiß wursts, pretzel, sweet senf and weissbier at 8 or 9 am. Nobody bats an eyelash! :toast:

3. That actually sounds delicious...
Many years ago, usually on a Sunday in the dead of winter during football season, I would drink a few beers with breakfast.

I would mix them half and half with either tomato juice or V8. Sounds gross, but tastes real good. :toast:

8. I've read you have had great success with your diet!
Keep up the good work and enjoy ONE beer when you've reached your ideal weight.

9. Thanks so much...
I've lost 20 pounds, but it has taken over 2 months. The good news is that I have been able to completely stop the short acting insulin. That means one shot (sometimes two) a day instead of 5. The less insulin you have to shoot, the quicker and more sustained the weight loss.

I have a ways to go yet...

10. 20 pounds in two months is nothing to sneeze at
Lefty. It is actually quite a lot of weight loss. I'm happy to hear you are on a healthy path with your diabetes and having such success! :toast: :bounce: :applause:

15. chelada is the Spanish word for that
pretty popular in Mexico - also with clamato (yech)

I think it is coming premixed now - seem to recall a bill board the other day
sort of like the lime flavored bud light (another YECH from me)
