Help me lifters, you're my only hope.
Because of a hernia repair issue I'm not supposed to work my abdominal group for a few months. I've been doing heavy bike riding for the past few months (Just hit the 1000 mile mark /brag) so my legs are the legs of a God. However my upper body is completly mismatched. I'm going to be healing for a few months, but I'd like…

My advice to those of us who have 100+ to lose.
Everybody fails in the long term on a diet. Everybody screws up sooner or later. The trick isn't willpower, you don't get 100 pounds overweight without issues, physical, mental, whatever. The trick is to wake up the next day, get your *kitten* on the scale and keep moving forward. One day failure isn't going to define you,…

100 Pounds Down | Pics | This is the story so far...
A long time ago, in a weight class far far away.... This was me. This was about a decade ago. I was actually 25 pounds heavier then that picture. I underwent roux-en-y gastric bypass and lost weight. I managed to lose 100 fairly quickly, got another 50 or so off very slowly, and then bounced up and down around 400 for a…

200lbs down / more then halfway to goal / Pictures
First off, full disclosure, I'm the enemy. I didn't do the majority of this through diet and exercise. I had gastric right after that first picture was taken. (They made me lose 25 lbs before they would even do the roux-en-y procedure, so my heaviest was 592). It is damn old. I managed with the gastric bypass to get down…

My Favorite Star Trek Book quote when I want to give up.

We have a word, komerex: your translator has probably told you it means ‘Empire,’ but what it means truly is ‘the structure that grows.’ It has an opposite, khesterex: ‘the structure that dies.’ We are taught—by those you wish…

So I get up stupid early, because I'm getting old and that's apparently what old people do.

So I fumble out of bed see it's not even light out yet, check the weather, check to see what time the sun…
