TGJB: You need to drink more.

mjellish: That\'s funny cause I was just thinking I need to drink less.

covelj70: I agree

Havent had so much as a sip of beer in 6 weeks because trying to drop weight (I know this is a sacrilege Richie)

How do we think Oaks day is going to go given that its me and 7 buddies for a day trip to the Oaks from New Jersey.

I\'m concerned.

TGJB: You need to start working up to it, get in drinking shape.

johnnym: I have the same issue

HP: Jim you need to drink lots of water.  Not drinking beer will help you lose weight, but drinking the water will maximize your results.  My wife is a nutritionist.

covelj70: Yeap. Thanks!

I\'m doing 110 oz a day of water (half body weight in ounces)

Thanks for thoughts. Nice of you

TGJB: The other way to go was something about him being all wet...

FrankD.: The Sicilian version is a goat won\'t even walk through it, why would I drink it per my grandfather. I guess in the old country goats avoided water or he really liked drinking red wine in the hot sun that much?

I\'ve enjoyed a few glasses myself reading the TG version of Derby Wars on a daily basis here!

HP: And no eating late at night!  Cut off food at seven.  I dropped 12 pounds in a month without much effort at all.  End of diet story.  

This makes me think of jockeys.  Those guys must go through hell.  And I miss \"Luck.\"  It was just getting good.  Consoling myself by rolling through \"Louie\" on Netflix.  

I watched a bunch of prep races on YouTube.  How do you guys see the Baffert horses running against each other?  They look similar style wise.  Maybe it\'s hard to tell since they each had their own way in last, I didn\'t see their earlier races.  Will he tell each owner what he\'s telling the other jock to do or is there a brick wall there?  Would the owners talk to each other, just hanging out?  It must take some diplomacy.
