    So I take it you're going to pack up those elastic waist pants and lose weight?

    I'm not going to punish myself with uncomfortable clothes - punitive approaches don't work. But I will walk five times this week - my most in a long time - and volunteered for over an hour's worth of physical labor in the warehouse yesterday, so I'm working on it.

    Encouragement by American public health officials and media would be nice too. Right now I am going it alone.

    Oh for god sake Jeppy, you and Joe Rogan. You two are the team against the world of Covid, The only two people in the world promoting good health practices to combat Covid. Such rebels! Yeah, sure.

    I am also trying to lose the 10 pounds I have gained since the pandemic started. Will be walking on my cloudwalker in the living room, since it's 14 below zero right now. In the middle of the damned day.

    If I wanted to get serious about losing weight and having better mental health, I'd bail on living here, I think.

    I have to admit that I am down about 30 pounds since the start of covid, but I have to attribute that to the physically demanding jobs I've had to take. Hate the jobs, but like the weight loss.

    Joe Rogan does not work for the El Salvador Health Ministry, nor do I. Though it would be nice to be someplace tropical right now.

    Well good for him. Michelle Obama did this when she was First Lady. You don't see a lot of it though.
