The Original Old Farts Club

[Kindbud]

My body's a bit too beat up for that. I just gotta stop eating. I got up to #200 a few years back and could only take it off by eating 500 calories a day for 4 months. Dropped down to my fighting weight, 154 pounds.
Ain't lookin' to be Charles Atlas, just make it a little easier to tie my shoes. I figure it ain't gonna be long before I get back to my original weight, 8 pounds, 6 ounces. How much does a box of cremation ashes weigh?

Yeah same here I'm 10% metal lol wish I could go back in time and not break so much stuff but the worse thing is my right shoulder totally ripped rotator cuff muscles and messed up the socket they surgically fix the muscle but it's never been the same over the head lifts are hard and I'm not doing them unless 100% necessary worse thing is it's my right arm to dammit

I have heard a torn rotator cuff is a terrible injury...surgery is the only solution.....that would suck

 

[Hippie420]

Got both of 'em screwed. Healed up kinda after a few years, but got a nice dose of arthritis in them, especially the left one. Still doesn't hurt as bad as the three blown discs.

Yeah before the surgery couldn't use my arm at all the broke femur with a rod in it and the broke pelvis and broken verbrae in my back wasn't as bad as the shoulder :/

All lower. Severe sciatic nerve damage on both sides, and severe cervical nerve damage.

Good morning OFC starting this day early. `It's going to rain today. Have fun growing.

Yeah I've cut back to 1 meal a day and a snack I've lost like 5 pounds last month or so I hit 30 and weight piled on dam metabolism come BACK please

NoNoNo -- One meal a day will flat out guarantee you will GAIN fat. Eat up to FOUR meals a day. <-- Just COUNT THE FRIGGIN' CALORIES!!

Two eggs is 150 teeny calories. No bread. Tomato Juice. Great breakfast at, say 8AM.

Snack at 11:00 -- An apple <--successful dieting sekrit: Apples fill you up like you ate four McSwine's Cheeboogers. They have 75 calories.

Lunch at 1:00 -- HUGE salad. All you can eat. Made of carrots, lettuce, 100 calories worth of dried cranberries or raisins mixed in with it. NO SALAD dressing. The salad tastes fine without it. 300 calories, tops

Dinner: A nice steak (don't eat the fat) with a baked potato with Brummel & Brown "butter" on it. And peas. 800 calories

Cut back to nearly nuffin on alcohol.

You just went through a whole day without being hungry at all... and you only took in @ 1300 calories.

Do that EVERY day with equivalents and you will lose five pounds a week minimum. After a while -- and this is straight-arrow -- your gizzard will sorta "shrink" as far as stuffing appetite cravings, and you will find after two months of being smart and serious that you just wind up not eating like you used to.

The fat stays off. It ain't really "dieting" -- it is cutting back on the usual calorie overload your brain is used to receiving to tell you it is happy with more food.

You just cut out the overload, and the pounds will come off. And you will feel sharper all the way around. Lotsa positives, like sleeping and general life stuff.

You may have to have your shoulder chopped off, laid on a table, deboned, and replaced with titanium and teflon. Like me:

DO NOT do anything that hurts. You only tear more. The docs can sew up everything with what looks like boat ropes... unless you "tough it out" until your fargin shoulder turns into a two-inch slope instead of a shoulder. THEN it gets rough. That fluffy white stuff is torn ligaments. They look like the frayed end of a cotton clothesline.
