| BluesKaj | seeing that canonical is going in a different direction now | 15:37 |
| BluesKaj | or maybe #kde-ca , who knows what will work | 15:38 |
| genii | BluesKaj: Well, if we have only 27 in this channel, I'm not sure how populated any other one might get. | 15:40 |
| BluesKaj | yeah genii , unfortunately | 15:41 |
| genii | BluesKaj: On a related note, I'm wearing my new Kubuntu shirt today :) | 15:41 |
| BluesKaj | show us :) | 15:44 |
| genii | BluesKaj: OK, give me a minute :) | 15:45 |
| genii | BluesKaj: http://imagebin.org/index.php?mode=image&id=277879 | 15:49 |
| BluesKaj | genii. looks cool , probly not available in my size tho :/ | 15:50 |
| BluesKaj | <---tall and kinda heavy in the belly :) | 15:51 |
| genii | BluesKaj: I think next jussi will have some hoodies (hopefully) | 15:52 |
| BluesKaj | altho I'm down to 300 from 320 | 15:53 |
| genii | BluesKaj: Yeah they are sold out now of the polo shirts, just checked at https://holvi.com/shop/Kubuntu | 15:53 |
| genii | BluesKaj: You should get some exercise soon shovelling when the snow finally hits! ;) | 15:54 |
| BluesKaj | genii. I'm going to start walking again now that my back is so much better | 15:55 |
| BluesKaj | been lazy this last yr or so | 15:56 |
| genii | Yeah walking is about the best overall, maybe aside from swimming | 15:56 |
| BluesKaj | yup | 15:57 |
| BluesKaj | we have pool facilities available for the townsppl at the sports complex here , but it's such pita to go thru the rigmarole | 15:59 |
| genii | Now that I'm not doing physical labour every day I'm starting to notice how out of shape I am and gaining a bit of weight. Since I was always between 125-130 ( for like 30 years ) it feels weird. Not much but I notice it now.. I'm up to 137 atm | 16:00 |
| BluesKaj | older one gets the more difficult to get rid of the excess | 16:01 |
| genii | Guess I'll have to sign up at the Y for swimming | 16:02 |
| BluesKaj | not fond of chlorinated pools ...swam at the Y for 4 yrs as a kid ... had skin probs for a yr afterwards | 16:03 |
| genii | I remember my doctor trying to help me put on weight, I was consuming 20,000 to 25,000 calories every day but only went up 3 pounds after a couple months of this. | 16:04 |
| genii | Now it's just creeping up on me | 16:04 |
| BluesKaj | wow , you must mean2000-2500 ? | 16:04 |
| BluesKaj | that's alotta cals | 16:05 |
| genii | No, 20 thousand to 25 thousand :) Turns out I have a thyroid situation which makes it almost impossible to gain weight normally | 16:06 |
| BluesKaj | 2200 is std requirement for most ppl | 16:06 |
| BluesKaj | are you on thyroid meds ? | 16:06 |
| BluesKaj | must be hyper-thyroidism | 16:07 |
| genii | I was drinking about 15-20 cans of Ensure every day, plus usually a box of cereal in the morning, 2-3 subs at lunch, couple large pizza at dinner, 2 litre containers of ice cream, etc | 16:07 |
| genii | BluesKaj: Not on meds (currently). My sister has same situation but after she had her kids needed to go on meds for it. | 16:08 |
| BluesKaj | that's alot of processed food , odd that you didn't gain water weight just from the sodium content | 16:09 |
| genii | I guess hormone changes etc | 16:09 |
| BluesKaj | wife is hypo , takes levothyroxin | 16:09 |
| genii | My current doctor is more worried about my cholesterol and hypertension | 16:11 |
| BluesKaj | yeah , that's probly more important | 16:12 |
| genii | Heh. I remember when he saw the results of my cholesterol testing, he thought the lab messed up and sent me back for a re-do. And then the second time it was even higher. And then he told me it's the highest bad cholesterol he'd ever seen from someone that wasn't obese. | 16:15 |
| genii | So now it's the diet thing, trying not to eat so much garbage, etc | 16:15 |
| BluesKaj | Ive 'be been on the edge of diabetes for a few yrs now, and my ulcer incident put me over the edge so now I'm looking at watching my diet and blood sugar levels , the fun is over til I get stabliized | 16:18 |
| BluesKaj | havent had a beer in over a month ...wife is convinced it's the beer that's to blame, not my food diet | 16:19 |
| BluesKaj | 12beer /wk isn't a ridiculous amount | 16:20 |
| genii | Beer in moderation isn't bad. A dozen a week is totally fine | 16:20 |
| genii | A dozen a day, that's another matter.... | 16:20 |
| BluesKaj | genii. lots greens and veggies and protein and a few natural carbs is the way to go | 16:21 |
| genii | My main problem is I like to eat pork chops :) | 16:21 |
| BluesKaj | hehe, a dozen a day, gawd ...don't think I could handle that physically or mentally | 16:22 |
| BluesKaj | chops is good , red meat for hemoglobin / iron is important | 16:23 |
| BluesKaj | and protein of course | 16:24 |
| BluesKaj | cut away the fat , that's all | 16:24 |
| genii | I have a pretty regular routine of after work on Mon, Wed, Fri to go have 2-3 Guinness around the corner, then home for dinner ( usually something like salmon with spinach and a salad on the side) | 16:25 |
| genii | In my 20s the roofing crew I was on, we used to drink insanely every night, so this is a major reduction in alcohol for me! | 16:26 |

| genii | OK, cool | 20:56 |
| BobJonkman1 | Conveniently, I created a template some time ago. But I'm having a bit of trouble logging in. The Ubuntu OpenID server isn't responding | 20:58 |
| BobJonkman1 | Never mind, I'm in now | 20:58 |
| genii | Odd, I just logged in without issue. | 20:58 |
