RD

iFuerza RDKL first i want to say thank you for your service that speaks volumes about you as well as how you carry your self in your writing, the hand you delt surly isnt good. and people dont think, why is that person that big, they think what the fuck, seriously? or hes lazy, or what ever the fucks think, i get it, not to the severity of others but shit. im much like you in your early years, big but athletic, and built, even was considering the marine corps before i pussed out, but i lead a very active life, so its not all people stuffing their pie holes, its also people being different, and no im not bigged boned because that statement is horse shit Well young man its not an easy road to hoe but you can address it and if need be visit your Dr. I have gotten meds for weight control for many a year and they helped as long as you did not abuse them. Adapex is a new med that decreases appetite as well as gives you extra little zing of energy. You said you were bailing hay so I assume your on a farm maybe? I worked on my grand Dads farm in the summers till football practice started and I really bulked up the muscles and sweated my nuts off. I bet your REALLY sweatin yours off as its cooler here (S. Georgia) than where you live.

NickTheGrip Well RDKL. You would most definitely NOT fall into the category I was railing on. Based on your story from the heart, it is obvious that you got dealt a crappy hand and fall into that small minority I talked about. I am sure when people see you in a chair weighing so much they think "lazy fat ass - ate himself into that chair" when they don't know the real reason and don't bother to find out. The ones I can't stand are the ones that do eat themselves into a chair and then expect us to not only accept their lack of will, but pay for their support. I hope you continue to get things under control and if you felt my rant was aimed at people like yourself, I apologize as it most definitely was not Peace brother No problem Nick...just wanted to show some comparison to the conversation. I'm not a quitter and some say I need to slow down some. But I got this little proverb that I live by........."If you slow down ...You go down" . I dont go out often cause its just a hassle but when I do I hold my head up high and folks see that Im all about the business . I still have a massive set of arms and shoulders that are well defined. I myself dont think of myself as "BIG" as much as others will tell me as far as the rest of the body besides the gut. Its just this middle/lower shit thayt need cut the hell off . LOL For fun I still arm wrestle a bunch and do one on each arm competition from time to time amongst friends . I also in spite of my age want to do wheelchair fights. I've dabbled in that a bit but my weight and my reach will out class me plus I'm winded quickly. I got an extra wheelchair here at the house with a open invitation to some sparring. We have had plenty of fun with that. This is my inspiration.....

Well happy birthday young'n !!! Wished I was closer to ya. We would have us a Large Adult Birthday Cocktail or 6.

well played Harry...Thanks BTW.....Love that Sig man..

I debated about posting here but I just think I needed to inform the uninformed and explain by a real example rather than everyone getting tossed in the same pool due to not being informed . Sorry but not everyones weight is due to them pulling up to the buffet and jamming their jowls with food. I do agree that there are a large number of folks that do themselves in BUT each and every case is or should be weighed in on its individual circumstances. I as well dont feel sorry for anyone thats obese and yet still poking 2 buckets of KFC in their diet a day. I myself will not nor have ate fried foods but 1 or 2 times a year. I will use my struggle as an example: I'm a big man.... 6ft 7inches and tipping the scale at 500lbs now. I will accept responsibility for some of my weight gain as for many years as a truck driver I did not eat as healthy as I could have but all considered I carried quite well however I had mitigating circumstances that led me here.I graduated HS at 6ft 4 260 and got out of the service I was 6" 5" 280 and built like a tank. I played 4yrs of HS football and wrestling. Yes we had that back in those days..LOL In 1988 I was 425 and hard as a rock... YES I was... but had a bit of belly but could still run you down if needed . I did weights 3 times a week .....played on 2 softball teams and was on a bunch of protein at the time. Then 1 night as I was riding my Harley some piece of shit drunk fuck made an oncoming left turn in front of me and run his 87 Cavalier over and stopped his car on top of me when he made a left turn in front of me. When we got the car off I was wanting to get up a stomp a mudhole in his ass as I really didnt feel any pain (shock they said) but was pissed cause I just built my bike. Well I could not get up cause the left leg was not working right. When I looked down I saw my boots about a foot from bottom of my jeans. It all but cut off my leg that was hanging literally by tendons. They were gonna cut it off but did not after I told them .."do your best". Anyway I was in ICU for 45 days cause my ribs got wacked and holes knocked in my lungs. I was in a bed for 12mos.....BEFORE I could start to learn to walk again. BTW...the guy had NO insurance and no $$ so physical therapy was out of the pic. Meanwhile ALL my muscle mass when to hell in a hurry needless to say and I went from bed to wheelchair,crutches ,cane to walking. I had a noticable limp since till I got in the wheelchair the 2nd time.I could not run anymore as I have 1.5" rods from hip to ankle so that put all my sports out of the pic. I also ended up with emphysema from a lifelong bout with bronchial asthma that will turn into emphysema as you grow older. NO...I NEVER EVER put a cigarette in my mouth my whole life. Do your research you'll see. I'm now in a wheel chair and went up toi 615lbs 3yrs ago due to excessive high doses of prednsone = 20mg 4 times a day. #1 side effect= excessive weight gain. It was prescribed cause I have these severe lung issues Its a chemical reaction....NOT a over eating issue. I eat well balanced meals a I must watch my sugar as well since another side effect of the prednsone was ramping your sugar out of sight causing diabetes. Finally Iwas making headway with the weight and had a stroke last Aug and that knocked me way out of the park but I wont give up. Anyway I've got my weight back to 500lbs . Bad thing is I am getting a bunch of skin hanging off and the fat is lowering to my gut I guess you can call it.I'm told that plastic surgery would both remove the skin and they could get the remaining "gut" thats hanging too. Problem is with that is....my lungs I'm told will not pick up as they should when the anesthesia wears off and I would die on the table.....which would be fine with me cause of peaceful death BUT the Dr's dont want to risk any liability of getting their as sued by my wife which we told them we'd give the a release for.. My chemistry is near perfect and has been for several years which baffle the medical field. My cholesterol is 179 my HDL is 70 ...BP avg is 130 /75-80 . So anyways there you have it. I'm not looking for ANY sympathy whatsoever. Please dont bother with it. I was dealt the hand and had to play it.... BUT..Not everyone is cut from the same cloth but I do agree with there being a BUNCH of people that DONT give a fuck about it. I'm not one of them ..like it or not. Best of luck to all those wishing to get their weight issues under control. I wish all the best for you as its a tough road the travel .. Thanks for giving me this moment

BBB= Big Bad Bone Smoker? Muhahahahahaha Sorry bud but that was funny.

Funny stuff here Judge. Dont stop posting it up. Makes other folks day .

Oh Boy.......!!! LoL I anxiously await his response to this one.

Yikes !!!!! Need to carry a flashlight if you gonna be hanging out with that boy

thats pretty cool there. We had similar on a 300ft seismograph boat I was engineer on way back in the 70's. You could see all sorts of stuff with it. I think there is software that can update that to a more graphic display. I may be mistaken though

That is fickn funny shit right there. ROFL

I ran across this the other day. Tons of WOW factor here to say the least. Technology has gone leaps and bounds in my lifetime . Thanks for sharing

Thats pretty cool. I got some that do funny ass stuff but when you bust out the camera they go to being normal. Guess their agent wants his cut or something :-) Thanks for sharing

Have a great Birthday! and many more!

Dont know if its here or not but....... One day these 2 old country boys was out hunting and came up on this big ass hole in the ground. One turned to the other and said ..." I wonder how deep it is?" The other responded ..." Well I have no idea but how bout we toss something down the hole and and listen for it to hit bottom?"....to which his buddy said "good idea" ...so they hunted in the thick brush around them and found an old Chevy motor block about 4ft from the hole. So each got on either end and picked it up and tossed it in the hole. Well...they had no longer let go of it and heard this great rustling in the bushes behind them and out charged this big assed goat and flew up to them at about 100mph and dove between them right into the huge hole. Well this just left these 2 old boy's plain dumbfounded as they starred at one another. Directly comes this old farmer up the path and asks the boys......" Ya'll boys seen my goat? I cant seem to find him anywheres". To that the old boys replied...." Well sir there was this big ol' goat that charged us about 100mph and jumped off in this big ol' hole here". The farmer replied..." Nah.....that couldnt have been my goat. Mine was tied to an old Chevy engine block".

Buwhahahahahahaha Thats a good 1

Good one!!

ROFL.!! .. Having been in the trucking business for 39yrs....I can relate. Funny stuff right there

I ship them across the border. I list it as a "repair return". I send several to Alberta a year for the school system in Ft McMurray

Happy 29th Birthday Magical.....!!! Oh! wait a minute....Thats right that was Jack Benny! LoL Enjoy your day and all those AARP bene's

PigDog ....in the version that I read, it said the the detectives described the knife that she used a "really sharp". Ya think ??? Thats a plus cause I just couldnt imagine cutting wood with a plastic picnic knife eh? Damned if that wouldnt have added to the misery ffs.

Beautiful pics you put up. I really like that 2nd waterfall. You would find me parked underneath it in the summer. very peaceful

Love the look of that GSG man. Sweeeet. Look cool with LazAim attached. 10/10 on that choice

Quite sorry to hear of this sad news. Such a cute pal you have there. I have pets myself and the loss bothers me worse that a human loss to be honest. A pets love for you is unconditional with no strings attached......people on the other hand...

Great ride there. I'm a Ford man myself when it comes to trucks. I have an early Excursion 4x4 7.3 thats been worked. Thing will pull the stink outta shit
