I'm about 30lb above what I would have considered my "fighting weight"... But I considered "fighting weight" to be a point where I could swim 7mi open water.

Now I'm fat and I smoke.

After crawling around and spending hours over many days on my back on a cold garage floor I finally fixed my hot rod.

What I thought was a wiring issue that kept the tail lights on when not running turned out to be a weak return spring on the brake peddle. Have been having to disconnect the battery each time when not in use to keep from draining it.

New spring, no more issues. Angel

Hey MACS, sounds about what you were at when we were weighing in and getting called fatties by Wheel.


Yeah, my ideal weight is 180. Since ol' wheel beat us to the dirt nap... some would call that poetic justice.

I'm gonna be 50 this year. I don't take any medication and I was stacking 40 pound bags of wood pellets today with no ill effects.

Am 6'2 and 210. I'm flabby thin.

Yearly physicals are fun, especially when I'm told I should lose some weight. The message delivered to me from a woman 5'4 and 205.

From the time I was 13 until the day my son was born I was 135lbs... Metabolism issue...

After my son was born I quit smoking pot and hit 190 in about 6 weeks time... Couldn't stop eating, never felt full...

Got back on the marijuana and dropped to about 156...

Just jarred it yesterday... I'll let it cure out for a week or two before sampling...

Had spider mite issues during flower so the yield is down, but quality is looking top notch...

Come on out for this year's deep sea herf and you can check it out!

I remember 8track being a skinny ****. Knobby white knees.

I personally hate being this weight because it makes everything harder.

Pull-ups... Handstand push-ups... That sort of s$$t would be a lot easier if I weren't carrying the extra weight.

Whiskey... Yes.

Sugar in tea is not tasty. But I suppose I'm going to have to get used to that.

Thank you Drafter and Tony for making me feel better during this slew of lightweight posts

Dstieger, don't know how we became the RV capital but it is true. The economic stability of Elkhart east of me depends largely on RV production

In my 20s I went to a gym that would make us do alligator push-ups across the gym... Down the hallway... Backwards up a flight of stairs and then down the stairs and back to the starting point.

Now in my 40s I try to do that after my workout and barely get across the gym floor.

In my late teens we would spend Christmas break training three times a day... I would probably log about 10 miles of swimming each day. Get up... Swim... Go home... Eat.. back to the pool to swim... Go home ... Eat.... Back to the pool to swim.

Now in my 40s 2-3 miles is a workout.

I hate being old and fat.

I don't care for the term "stupid cheap" but Costco has a double pack of kinders roasted garlic steak sauce that was on clearance for $3.97 that's now on clearance for $1.97... And it's really, really good... I've got around 20 bottles but I'm giving a bottle to everyone I see...

Yeah, because at 50 you're like... fuggit... so 10 years later at 60 it all goes to sh*t cuz you said fuggit at 50.

Right?

So I gotta keep doing stuff? Dammit.

Picking up my dad and his new girlfriend at the airport in a few. I guess he decided to come visit one last time before we moved.

My woman is thrilled he has a new girlfriend. The one he took to my wedding was younger than me. I don't particularly care... As long as he enjoys himself. He's probably only got about 5years left.
