Saw some boneless pork chops on sale and bought them. They looked very lean and trimmed of fat. Cooked them on the grill and they were great.(They were about 6. ozs each) Ate one and put the other one in the fridge and the rest I froze. Gave me a break from beef and chicken. Looked up the information here, www.nutritiondata.com/facts-001-02s01nv.html and IMO, the fat content was comaparable to beef. Comments?

There are definitely a few lean cuts of pork. I'm a huge fan of tenderloin.
I only eat it offseason but like you said, nice break for a change.
In general I'm not a huge pork fan, but that stems from nothing other not liking the flavor.

I'm not sure if SAM WOO is a U.S. national chinese restaurant...but you can order PORK CHOPS smothered in sweet red sause. Thats the only pork i used to eat. Other than that.. ....i like to eat any seafood. There are too many Sea animals anyway....you just can't eat them all!!
Plus..you're what you eat.. ;D You eat ostrich...you are ostrich..hehe You eat like a gorilla (plants, bananas, nuts) you are gorilla. You eat like Tim (eggs,fish,beef,chicken,burgers) you are TIM lol..

Troy I have always liked pork and according to this link from the Canadian Pork Council, pork has gotten much leaner in the 15 years or so. Although a ton of salt is added to the curing process of some pork products such as ham and bacon. www.cpc-ccp.com/nutrition.htmlAlso checked out the homepage of your sponsor, Bodyinmotion. Looks like you all are going have a big weekend up there in Edmonton, with the Canadian Nationals in town. Hope that Angela does well and the best of success to Angela and Allen in their venture.

J65, Hey thanks! Yeah, we're really looking forward to it. So many friends we're going to have to shout support for multiple people on stage, LOL. Next year me and Lori will be up there. Seeing as how it's in our city this year -- THIS YEAR would have been better but we needed the break from dieting and it gives us almost a full year to bulk for next year. Rumor has it that nationals will be in Montreal next year. We gotta' start saving now for the trip. Our association will assist a bit.
Angela is really an incredible athlete.
Cheers!
Troy

Montreal huh, it could be worse, you could have to travel to Newfoundland. ;D
Just kidding, but an observation about Alberta with the price and supply of oil the way it is(price going up, supply tightening) you guys may have the beginning of an economic boom up there in Alberta, especially with the oil shale in Alberta containing as much oil as Saudi Arabia.
Take care and you and Lori enjoy yourselves this weekend.
