You people are great, a little nuts perhaps, way to much time on your hands, but great none-the-less.

eat what my wife makes, and don't complain, I cannot cook, I do the stuff she does'nt like to do. Well really I just do as I am told....:wink:

sorry to hear about your shoulder, I have heard that once dislocated it can be more prone to repeat so may have to get doc to give you some targeted excercises for it. Hope it gets well soon.

Thanks for the info, I am one of those trying to stop smoking and lose wieght, I thought about trying it once but found out my insurance would not cover it. May just pay for it myself.

Wow!! I just read through all of these postings and now feel I should be entitled to some form of certificate or degree, I now know a whole lot about vodka and calories...But really folks there was some good info in these posts, I think the example I would have used would have been plastic, a petro product, has calories,…

I looked into it but that "anal leakage" side effect was a big turn off to me. Main thing is if you take in less calories than you burn you will lose weight. Bottom line. Its good to eat healthy, there are some foods that will help you burn quicker, i.e. caffeine, cinnamon etc. but if you burn more than you ingest you…

This reminds me of a humourous ancedote, years ago whn my oldest girl was in first grade my wife had to be out of town for a few days. I received a call from my daughters school, the conversation went like this: "Sir you may need to check your daughters clothing before allowing her to come to school when she dresses…

I think the bottom line is wear what you are comfortable in, my wife gets on me all the time.."are you going out in that?" I reply. "Yes." "But it doesn't match." I look at myself, one shirt, one pair of pants, one pair of shoes, whats the problem. "But people will not like it." My attitude is "screw 'em." I don't dress…

Eating right is the toughest part for me, my personal food groups triangle is hamburger, potatoes, corn and cheese..I can count on one hand the veggies I like.

I burn 2636 calories if i just lay in bed, my doctor told me to do a 1000 calories a day and told me weight would drop off quite rapidly at first. I asked him the same type of things, i.e. isn't losing weight rapidly dangerous, his reply was, "over the long term." Of course due to my size it may be different, also I need…

Wow, I will give it a shot, starting weight 368
