    No. I've been afraid to add in the carbs mid-week. Likwid doesn't seem to have any problems just using fat for energy for CF. That was my plan. I wish someone could just prescribe for me a fool-proof regimen. But as we all know, there are so many variables in our individual biochemistries...

    Hmmm... That's what I HAVE been doing... ...which is why I think adding HIIT will help me break through the plateau. I thot CKD would be the best compliment, since it affords the carb reload.

    I'm trying to figure out what is going to work best for me. I've been eating slow-carb ("Intro-to-Paleo", since it allows for beans/lentils) for over 2 years to great success. But having totally plateau'd over the past 6 months, I'm trying to shake it up. So I've tried variations of straight...

    Ahhh!!! Well played, dear Russ!! I shoulda known you'd recognize it.

    Who are the Brainiacs!?

    OFF-TOPIC 
    Cool! Well, the most literal translation would be "Ut vos puto , sic vadum is exsisto." But it's been 30 years!! Let me check with someone who is a little more of a Latin scholar!! I would hate for you to end up with a somewhat permanent tat that translates: "Think about to do be do." LOL.

    Benefits of a classical education! (Name that movie.). I have no idea how I stumbled upon this ancient thread. But I always find it fun to re-read old threads. 5 years of Latin, Russ. So if Caesar ever comes to town, I'll be in good shape. :smxE:

    Learning italian

    OFF-TOPIC 
    I'm sure there are some Italians on here, as the "population" of this forum is significantly more substantial than one might think! But Italians are not as entrepreneurial as some other cultures. This is a broad stroke, of course. But culturally, they tend to focus on other things (family...

    Not to totally derail the "suit" thread... :rolleyes: but since you clearly prefer the Italian aesthetic, you might look at Magnanni at the same price point. I like them better than all the above. But when you can afford it (or find it on eBay?) keep your eyes open for some Vass shoes...

    It would be my pleasure, Andviv! That's one of the few things in my life that I love enough to do for free!! (I've left a lot of men in my wake better dressed for having known me!! LOL!) Soon. Inventory is on order, but the site is not yet ready for prime time....which is why there is no...

    Agreed, assuming that the only "need" for a suit is a job. Or maybe that's not what you meant. But some people just like to dress up!! And some woman love to be treated to the occasional "jacket-required" evening out, accompanied by an incredibly well-appointed man! But it's true - outside...

    Bingo. Some guys like high end cars, some like high end A/V, etc. To each his own. I could take issue with you on a couple of your points. But for your purposes, the route you are taking will probably always work just fine for you. The primary difference is that if you are buying really...

    Yay, Kak. I think you'll be pleased. I would recommend that you order just one, first, to make sure they get the fit right, before ordering multiples tho. Let me know whatcha think.

    Yes, Bob. Mrs. BFL is correct. . . unless the Elmo Jammie pants are the footie type, in which you might be okay.

    If you are referring to the Barutti Harris Tweed (which I doubt), then the quality is good. But you are probably referring to the German Barutti, right? I'm not very familiar with their construction. But based on their MSRP, I would assume that they are fused, not canvassed. They are nice...

    No! Not necessarily. Just saying that if you do your due diligence in selecting fabrics, and know what to ask for, you can get a pretty darned nice suit for less than the cost of a high quality RTW suit such as Hickey Freeman or the others I listed that retail for ~ $1k. Yes. Jantzen Tailor...

    What a fun thread! Not sure how I missed it when it first made the rounds... My first foray into the world of entrepreneurship (other than the obligatory lemonade stand, of course) was probably at 8 or 9 - 2nd or 3rd grade. I noticed at lunch that everyone seemed to LOVE "Honeybuns" in their...

    What is - The Love of Money ?

    MINDSET 
    "Money" is a medium of exchange. That's all. if someone "loves money", it's really because they love whatever it is for which they think they can/will exchange it. I "love" money because I know that I can exchange it for time. Anyone can make more money; no one can make more time. Ergo...

    No. TSA Pre is free, but it's by invitation only. Global Entry (which allows you to bypass the lines in Customs) is $100 and is good for 5 years....and WELL worth it. Saves me 30 min to an hour every time I come back into the country. But now we're a tad off topic! Sorry. Back to Paleo!
