SWEDISH FISH
- Vinnie decided to go on a hiking trip with his two nephews and friend, Don
- His two nephews, one who is a freshman in college and the other who is a few years older, came to LA
- They are from Louisiana so had no experience with altitude whatsoever
- Don and Vinnie got passes to go and hike Whitney
- One of Vinnie's nephews was in great sport-shape, and the other one had some extra weight on him
- The boys did not eat NSNG, in fact they ate a diet of mostly
carbs
- For example, literally ate candy for meals
- The altitude proved tough for them
- His fitter nephew had more trouble than his overweight nephew
- Fitter nephew seemed to give up quite early
- Hayden
- Overweight nephew did quite well, although he did not summit,
he pushed himself
- Steel
- Also, now he is going to try out NSNG because he is determined to come back and summit the mountain in the future!!
- Fitter nephew seemed to give up quite early
- The only one who actually got to summit was Don Coddington!
- There were old ladies passing Vinnie's nephews
- After the nephews ate an incredibly carby meal, nobody went to sleep though they had to wake up at one to hike
- Vinnie made some great coffee on his little traveling
stove
- Don and Vinnie put in some heavy cream and a little coconut oil
- Don is huge on intermittent fasting
