  • i remember when I was a kinesiology student before i switched back to accounting, one professor talked about quickest ways to weight lose is losing a limb. If he had to lose 20-30lbs in 24hrs to get 20 million dollars, he said he give up a leg to get there. As a class we agreed a leg would be the way to go. with modern…
  • motivation is tough. When I was in school, it was easy. You're on a sports team, you're young and dumb. When I was doing army training, i had someone screaming and yelling at me, easy to to do. Post college, going with career work, it's tough. I can say 'no' all the time. What has helped me these past months is the new…
  • In college, i worked at the fitness center, re-racking weights is the biggest thing. cuz when we lock the doors, it's us who has to put everything back. You think with all the signs, these folks can read and put their stuff but. But nope. I workout at work, which now happens to be a major university, so the wellness center…
  • my drivers license doesn't have weight anymore. i didn't realize they didn't do this anymore. oops. well on my CHL it says 250lbs... i'm a bit off that number. Originally I was 178 when I got my first license at 16 I believe, got some ways to work at it! lol
  • It's nice to know other people have their 'sad music' playlist too. lol. I see a lot of songs I have as well. All Out of Love - Air Supply Against All Odds - Phil Collins, though mariah carey has a nice cover Almost - Tamia but I have to say, the 80s/90s covers this playlist very well. lol
  • Houston, TX... only the best. lol
  • I did mostly Tae Kwon Do when I was in high school. I mean it was a mix of Karate and TKD. You know, the building say karate but we did a lot of TKD. I liked it, I didn't practice it outside of the 2x a week then. I was in great then, granted I was also a high school kid so go figure. lol. Flexibility increases, i could do…
  • i think gymnastics at 18 will be a bit harder. I did dance, Jazz and Ballet after I graduate HS and when I started college. It's simple really, usually your college will have a kinesiology class that is dance 1 or something, that's intended for someone who has never danced before. I also spent some time at a dance studio,…
  • Thanks for the heads up klfoster!!! I'm still deciding on a tracker. and was gonna shoot for one on ebay... but why buy used when i can get it new for same price. went ahead and went for it, picked the exclusive blue color; i like blue and if i don't like it i can sell it and people will be like 'oh blue'. 97.37 at check…
  • people be like 'nice rack jimmy' and i be like 'you're just jealous i'm bigger than you' and then that's why i don't have any female friends............. jk jk jk I'm a guy, i don't mind compliments or comments. I do have problems with people asking like 'how's it going' or 'still working out'. Those tend to just translate…
  • Nice for making the decision to join. I did Basic in 2009, as a reservist in a non-combat MOS, and then had a ELS so I'm not a veteran. During Basic and AIT, or for you OST, you train with reservists, guardsmen and active duty. I was similar to you. I was 230lbs and over the weight limit, I'm in the 5'8-5'9... got a big…
  • I had a Specialized Hardrock 29er, and I bent the front rim on a wipeout... sand at the bottom of a hill, I didn't adjust and i went off the bike. rim bent. That was years ago... and rims for 29ers were pricey. They are a bit better now. I got mine from JensonUSA. They will price match, they can be slow, so maybe get…
  • Great story and success. Most kudos to you! I was lurking and checking out other questions and answers. Similarly I'm obese. I'm 290lbs at 5'9, 5'8 (depends on who is measuring) but people don't think it sometimes. I'm almost 28 now, so yeah this is obese and not good. If I was a freshman or sophomore in high school, this…
