He actually fell and hit his head, developed a blood clot, and died from that. It was not from heart disease.
I did Atkins for years, and I have to tell you, my energy level, health, and fitness are better when I do it. My body needs more protein than some other people. H is a pescatarian (veggie who eats fish), and I tried doing that. I ended up feeling like absolute crud. On Atkins I eat lots of whole foods and actually consume less food overall because I'm easily satiated.
Anyway, just wanted to clear up he didn't die from his diet.
Nikki--when H and I were separated in the same house, my rule (in my head) about ML was that H would have to initiate, and I would treat it like a physical act. Now...I *did* prance around in pretty nighties as a part of my PMA strategy, but I NEVER touched H or suggested in any way that we ML.
If you're worried about disease, use a condom. That, too, makes a nice little statement.
