Comment on Crossfit + (mostly) Paleo making 40 the new… 20? by Patty

Fabulous piece. I, too, am in the “get 40/get fit” club. Been doing low-carb (started as Atkins, gradual shifting toward Paleo/Primal) since May and have lost 25 lbs and 1.5 clothing sizes. I’m waiting to lose that other .5 size before buying anything new, so I’m wearing mostly baggy stuff these days too. It’s nice to hear about someone else in the ‘hood doing Paleo. Like you, I also notice a new emphasis with a lot of my friends about taking fitness more seriously–maybe also because my social circle consists of 40-somethings. Me, lifelong weight issues and non-exerciser who never did well on low-fat/low-calorie regimens. Feels great to finally find something that works for me! I still have a ways to go before I am “fit,” but it seems doable for the first time in my life. Thanks for writing this and congratulations on your success–may you have more to come.

Great stuff Robert, despite the resources, it’s really YOU who has created all of this positive change in your life. You’re truly an inspiration to the 40 somethings who “can’t make time” for fitness!

Not at all. That’s the idea. Been away from the keyboard for a bit but back at it now and good exchange is the goal.

Saw a great post on The Neighborhood Pharmacy of Del Ray and couldn’t agree more. For those of you wanting to discard old, expired medicines from your medicine cabinet, the pharmacy will take them back for free so you don’t have to throw them in the trash or down the sink. Just in time for Earth Day tomorrow!

Comment on A Tale of Two Banks: Leaving Chevy Chase? by Mark

I have been with chevy chase for a very very happy 10 years as well. I loved that they were small and local. But the Chevy Chase Bank I know and love went under in 2008. Capitol One bought them with bail out money and they just haven’t switched customers out of the Chevy Chase brand yet. Last year at the Washington St branch they told me it would be early 2010 that the Chevy Chase brand would disappear and everyone would formally be Capitol One customers. I cringe. Capitol One is the scumiest of scumbag banks. They wrote the book on predatory lending. They are on the Walmart level of what is wrong with the world. I hate that I am their customer and was waiting for the brand switch over to find a new bank, but your post has relit the fire with my deceased friend Chevy Chase bank.
