Guest guest Posted January 31, 2004 Report Share Posted January 31, 2004 I recently read an article in the paper about Jack LaLanne who will be turning 90 this year. He's thinking about swimming 30 miles from Catalina Island to LA for his birthday. I tried to find the article to make sure I had my facts correct but couldn't so I'm doing this from memory. He works out from 5-7 every morning. He has a soy protein shake for breakfast, eats a salad with at least 10 vegetables for lunch and the only meat he eats is a 3 ounce portion of broiled fish for supper along with a salad with 10 vegetables. He doesn't think much of the Atkins diet as people " need vegetables and whole grains. " He doesn't think people should drink milk-- " What mammal drinks milk after being weaned? " He still has sex. He says he doesn't perform as well as he used to but can still get it on. He has a 31 inch waist and a 46 inch chest. He's 5'4 " tall. He eats soy, very little meat and fat, doesn't eat sweets, and is remarkably healthy. It's certainly not NT eating and isn't something I'll ever do but it is obviously working for him. Just wanted to know what others thought of this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
