Being Overweight

[JarHed]

Sometimes it seems like we have just one too many things to deal with. It's hard getting healthy or trying to stay that way either.

My biggest personal issue with staying in shape is having a workout partner. Back in my meat-head days, it was difficult to find a partner who was both as strong as I was, and who would shame me if I tried to puss out (or me him). As I got older and fatter, my ability to force myself to workout, run, swim, whatever has waned to almost zero. I can muster the will to head in for a couple of days, maybe a week. Then it's back to no interest.

Pass the Doritos and Ho-hos.

Well, don't feel bad. Arthritis put a screeching halt to my long walks in the woods. Man, I miss that. When I try to push it past a certain point, it starts feeling like two stones grinding together. But at least when the roads dry out I'll cruise the forest roads (that are still open).

Gettin' old ain't for sissies.

Best of both worlds; put the Ho-Hos in the mic for 30 sec, crush the Doritos and coat them when they come from the mic. MMMM!

They told me to stop running (the VA), no more dancing, I took ballet for 15 years when I was younger and was in an adult class, but my hips and knees are so bad they pop constantly. So I stopped and when I did I was so depressed, so sad that everything physical I did to make me feel better was gone. So I picked my ass up and got moving again, when I hurt I slow down, the bulging disks in my neck hurt sure but hell I'm only 36. This fibromyalgia/bulging disks/operated on knees/everything hurts Can all kiss my ass. I do what I can when I can.

I sweat I am going to organize a walk for all of us who can't over the pain. f*ck the pain and do it. Give it to charity. But some nice place like the Smoky mountains where they have to pay for the trip.

Thousands of us. Walking like the gimps that we are.

Or even being younger when you body's been through the mill. I like that old joke of; 'if I knew I was going to live this long I would have treated my body better'. That's a lie, I would have abused it even worse.

I do know that somehow and in someway you have to keep moving, working at something both physically and mentally. It ain't easy but then I was a Grunt, and Grunts can take anything...............................................................................or so they say.

I do like the idea of a walk Vik. And the Smoky Mountains are beautiful anytime of year.

I am using sex as a weight loss effort. Girlfriend claims its working. I just like trying. after not getting much in that dept. for years while married its nice to get back into the swing of things so to speak.

 

[Fargo1]

You know Red, there's something to that...

 

[JarHed]

To loose one pound you have to burn 3600 calories. Hmm, so let's see. 288 per hour for sex, Hmm......ahh, calulating...............125 hours to loose say 10lbs. or about 4.5 k for everyone else. Sounds like a full time job for me.

Question is; when can I start?!?! :ROFLMAO:

 

[Fargo1]

I think you're gonna have to ask the wife that question Jar! ;-)

Wanking must count too, that is why the majority of teenagers are skinny.
