Since I already waste way too much time in this hole, I've decided to do a little multitasking. While typing this shit I am pedaling away on the excercise bike. I can't spin as fast as usual and type or read for that matter, but, I can atleast keep a decent enough pace to keep the heart rate at 120 bpm give or take a few.

Rack my laptop, wireless connection and the old proform 920S EKG.

I hope to be back in 36 waist jeans before my 44th bday next month.

Nothing wrong with that.
Keep it going. Chart your progress. And, you'll see the
difference this spring and summer.

Give up now lardass, you'll never even make it into a size 40.

Do the math.

BTW, 1 pound of fat contains 3,500 calories.

You do that man .......

Posted: **Wed Feb 21, 2007 8:12 am**

Okay...so you want to...drop a couple of pounds...that's cool.

Umm....considered, uh..EXCERCISE!!

Oh, sure, you've wandered dilegently on a treadmile, pumped patiently on some carefully prepared weights...

but have you ever, uh, considered...REALLY getting out?

http://www.flurl.com/item/158_u_207679

I mean walking and driving around in hot arid, palm-lined stretches where very few folks speak English?

C'mon, you sorry sweatbag..TURN YOUR HEAD AND SQUEAL LIKE NED BEATTY....

I don't think you're getting it yet....

Look, tubby. My 38s are almost as loose as blondiebabe. I'll be in them 36s real soon. Infact, I can probably slither into them now, if I can find a pair. But, I've been there before since I got married. I'll really be satisfied when I get back down to my fighting weight (anything that begins with a 1).

Somewhere, I think I actually may still have a pair of 34s and I WILL wear those fukkers again.

Mrs. LabRat and I have been doing the "getting healthy" bit for about 6 months now. In her case, the motivation was her blood pressure and bad back. She used her Palm Pilot and some software to keep track of "points" (I think it's a Weight Watchers thing) and does the treadmill and elliptical trainer religiously. She dropped about 40 pounds in the last six months, weighing less than she did before she got preggers with our first kid eight years ago. She looks and feels great. I'm definitely digging it.

I started off going along for the ride (you know, the "spousal collateral diet"). I wasn't fat by any means (220 lbs on 6' 4" doesn't look fat), but I definitely felt sluggish. Dropped 15 pounds just by eliminating soda from my beverage choices. That pissed the wife off. Then, in December, I decided to do the elliptical trainer every day, which also helped deal with stress. Sumbitch, but I'm also down to my grad school weight and feel a hell of a lot better. Now that I think about it, I'm probably in better shape at 42 than I was in grad school, since I don't live on beer, pizza, wings, Steak-Ums, and En-Cor frozen entrees. The only reason I wasn't a load back then was of that delightful pre-30 metabolism.

Like every non-quack doctor and trainer has ever said, it all comes down to eating right and exercise. And it takes persistance and patience.

Started on Dec 19 at the gym on a managed weight loss and exercise program.

I was 252 and at 6' 1 that was a bit porky. Got the whole nutritional thing down, changed eating habits and doing 4 days a week at the gym doing 10 minutes hard cardio, some resistance and free weight work and finish with 20 minutes on ellipitcal, tread mill or rowing machine.

Down to 231 as of last night. I want to get to at least 200 and hold there. Not bad after too many years of being fat and for an old man of almost 50.

Posted: **Wed Feb 21, 2007 4:06 pm**

I've been trying to eat more unhealthy stuff, and fatten up a little. Any of the 32" pant I have threaten to fall down at any moment. The 31's still fit OK.

As per usualm, it sucks to be you guys.

you forgot ramen noodles aka starving college kid feed. Isn't it the official chow of college/po folks? As for those eliptical trainers that everyone loves, I just don't feel comfortable on them. I'll stick with the stationary bike and hopefully this spring a nice new Trek (new to me anyway. biker dude that I work with just dropped over a G on a new trek and he's giving me his hand me down for 50 bucks.

Funny thing is, Gary is early fifties and has two speeds, slow and stop. And he tells me he ain't any quicker on wheels, yet he feels the need to drop better than a weeks pay on what he calls a "entry level racer". I don't get it, but, if it will put me on a good quality bike for beer money, who am I to judge?

As for the pre-30 metabolism, I think that plays a small part in ones physique. There is another factor which, IMHO counts for about 90% of it. It is what basically drives everything. The need to get laid.

Many twenty somethings are in decent shape or atleast not morbidly obese. Something changes around the late twenties/early thirties. A good number of us lock up a steady POA. Getting married means that the physical condition/quantity-quality of ass you get equation that applied when single goes out the window. As a result many of us slack off.

I graduated high school weighing around 185. In the following decade, I held pretty steady body fat wise, just put on some muscle, never getting much over two bills. Then on my 28th bday something changed. I got hitched and within a year was up around 225-230. The last 15 years have seen a slight raise usually in the 230-240 range, I guess this is that metabolism thing, but, I know goddamn well, if I was still having to go out and hunt down my own POA every night, I'd be right there in the 195-200 range. Guarantee it.

Like every non-quack doctor and trainer has ever said, it all comes down to eating right and exercise. And it takes persistance and patience.

What you talkin' 'bout? You mean I don't have to buy a book or a pill? Or faggy jenny craig meals? You mean I can just eat a little less? Bahhhhhh!!!

Read one of those bullshit studies recently, where they said Oregon was strange in that it had very high numbers of thin, fit people...and high numbers of obese people (gee, I wonder if that comes down to an urban/rural thing? Ya'think?). Somehow, we've all-but eliminated to "fence-sitting" in-betweeners.

I also read(once again) that Portland has the most churches-per-capita of major US cities...and (by far) the lowest church attendence of any major city...go figure. I guess if you do attend church, you've got lots of elbow room....unlike golf courses on sunday mornings.

Yeah... there was this dude waddled into the iron works the other day, and dude had to have went 5 bills at least. He leaned his lard ass up again the glass display case and proceded to pant like a bull dog after fucking a football. I mean I though dude was going to drop right there.

He panted out to the clerk what ever it was he wanted and heaved himself of the counter, (amazing it held up) and piled his lard ass into a broken down Ford pickup that sagged on the drivers side. If dude had been famous, he would have been a death pool lock.

Now coming through Grants (Meth - Welfare) Pass on Monday, I looked over at the Wal Mart lot and sited at least 3 - 300 pounders waddling from their hillbilly sleds . Fucking gross.

Mayb I'll have to start growing my hair and try the aging hippie-sugar daddy method that you advocate.

It might if you were trying to score hot babes. Not much chance of that.

So what you are saying essentially is that your method works best on pre-teens?

Hot DAMN!!!!

Thanks for the fatherly advice.

Don’t get all worked up, Tard, I said babes, not babies. How shocking that you would confuse the two. Where I come from, a babe is an adult female.

You’ve repeatedly outted yourself with your pedophilic tendencies, Tard, you pretty much addmitted to it in another thread yesterday. And you’re not going to get anywhere with that Kansas City defense.

Way too rudimentary to spend much time on this. The Daily Dozen...military-style workout at least twice per day..sit-ups, push-ups, chin-ups, squat-thrusts and so on..common sense stuff here..skip lunch except for a salad..breakfast..high protein, low residue i.e. steak and eggs(sounds like a cholesterol orgy but it won't be if you dedicate yourself to the twice a day regimen)...or the other way..meth.

Life's great when your cholesterol is in the basement, you can eat whatever the fuck you want whenever the fuck you want, concerns about your weight aren't even a blip on the doctor's radar, you're very athletic, in damned good health, and your biggest worry is whether or not the clothing store has pants in your waist size not because you're fat, but because you're THINNER than most of the rest of this fatass nation.

Wrong on both counts.

Having your ribs show through your shirt doesnt mean you're "athletic" in any way, shape or form.

Over the years, i've seen hundreds of, in your terms, "Athletic" skeletor guys who were pathetically weak in many different areas other than the obvious weight training arena.

well, picked up a pair of 36-32 jeans at kmart, yes, fags, kmart. I'll let the rest of you idjits pay 75 bones at some fancy shit hole for the same made in sri lanka shit I have.

they fit, sorta. a bit snug, but, not too bad. I have had 38s be this tight.

Oh sure...go ahead and hate on the skinny folks.

Gee, didn't see that coming...from a bunch of fatasses.

Some of you fatasses would give your left nut to not be walking around looking like the absence of the name Goodyear from your midriffs is a strange anomaly, ideed.

You know it.

I know it.

The world knows it.

Yet here you sit, finding your strength in numbers. Piling on. Well, here's the dealio, fukkos -- there's a whole buncha fucking idiots out there, and those(meaning you) guys seem to find your strength in numbers, too.

In your perpetually fruitless quest to avoid complete inadequacy, you're actually willing to champion the worthwhile cause of being a fatass.

Nice work, fatasses.

Does that qualify me as one of the skinny guys or a fatass? Just need to know what side of the battle field i should be on.
