>Sorry - I just don't like wine, period. My wife loves red wine but I just cannot get into it. So I've been drinking water and some Sprite Zero here and there. I've dropped 15 lbs (mostly water weight, I guess).

Good work on the 15 lbs.
I was about your age when I had the heart attack and 4 bypasses.
I changed my diet and life style and the key arteries are still 98% open per a recent test.
My BP is better than yours and my MD says I'd qualify for marine boot camp.
On a recent round I trounced guys 30 years younger on the golf course and I'm privileged to enjoy the company of one of the sexiest, most beautiful, most stylish, and most intelligent women you can imagine.
Forget the chips, fries, ribs, potato salad etc. They're crap any way.
Enjoy a good filet mignon and a pint now and then.
Have you tried Bonefish?
Great fish.

Too bad about the red wine. There are some French reds that are awesome.

My children, grandsons, daughter-in-law, son-in-law are an amazing source of joy.
You have some amazing years ahead of you.
Be sure to let yourself enjoy them.
