So, most of yas know I am on a weight loss journey, those who dont, Well, I am on a weight loss journey LOL. Most also know my love for a Canadian Rock band Monster Truck and my love of radio and radio contests and shit like that. Well my favorite radio station was having the guitarist of my favorite band in as a co-host for the day yesterday. They set it up so I could come down, hang out for a couple hours, go on air talking weight loss and rock and roll and how I have infused the two to make my journey fun. I am typing this with the boner I still have from yesterday!! Jer (the guitarist of Monster Truck) was so fucking cool about it, the morning show host called him the night before to make sure it was alright. Jer knows what a huge fan I am, so he hooked me up with their latest album signed by all members of the band and some guitar picks, the guitar picks are not even for sale as of yet!!! There is 1 personalized pick for each member of the band, only they and friends/family of the band have them! To top it all off, as I am leaving, Jer asks me if I could drop him off downtown at the bands Jam Space.... so here I am, cruising downtown Hamilton Ontario, guitarist of my fav rock band in the front seat beside me. Can life get any better?????? Fuck me what a whirlwind day! The generosity of the band and the radio station left me with tears in my eyes as I drove home, to look out for 1 fan and hook him up like that? fucking amazing!!!! Dont Fuck With The Truck!!!!! Heres some pics of my day and a couple comparison pics of weight loss!! Album signed by band!! Band guitar pics! Jer and I before going on air and talking weight loss and rock and roll!! Jer and I, me rocking the Jersey that inspired my weight loss journey! Almost the same picture, only 2 years ago, can you spot the difference LOL and here is a pic of me in the Jersey on day 1 of my weight loss journey and me last week

So Penn of the famous magician comedy duo recently lost a shitload of weight, sent him a congrats message this morn with pics of my weight loss and he came back with a kick ass Ramones reference as a reply!!!

Heya's, I know we have someone here in the clan that can help me out. As a lot of you know, I have made some major life changes. 8 months ago started eating different and doing a bit of exercise and shit, im a cheeseburger away from 100 lbs lost in just under 8 months. I am looking for someone to help me out designing and obtaining a website. I have no idea what is involved as I am completely dumb when it comes to those things. Looking to purchase a domain name if it is not too expensive and have someone help me out with getting a website up and going. Basic website, will have some write ups by me about my journey, eating habits, exercises, goals and whatnot and a bunch of pictures of me along the way with the changes and getting to do things I never would have been able to if I was so large still. Maybe toss some music up on it from the band that has inspired and encouraged this lifestyle change. I hope by doing this, maybe it can help someone else who was sitting where I was.... 400 lbs, thinking this was all life had left for me, thinking it is just the way the cookie, cake, donut, cupcake and jos lois crumble! Well that aint the way and hopefully people seeing my changes will find the heart and courage to get up and get out and make some changes. I would love to somehow obtain the domain www.itstartedwithajersey.com My whole story and journey started with a jersey of my favorite band that I bought 3 years ago, got the largest size they made and it was too tight on me, Always said I would one day lose the weight to make it fit. Took a couple years to get started but I did it. jersey fits and I take a picture and have every month since the 1st day I started wearing the Jersey and send it to the band and they send back words of encouragement and support. Any info or help I can get from people here would be amazing, Like I said, i dont know cost, effort needed. Would like the ability to update it with pictures and stories as my journey continues. Would like to go live with the website at my 1 year mark which is October 27th so that gives a little over 4 months to get it all organized, is it possible?. If it is possible can anyone get back to me with an estimated cost of getting a website and keeping it going and all that good stuff feel free to send me a PM or hit me up on Facebook or here or anything, Cheers all James/Stormy

Out fishing last week with a couple buddies, 20 minutes on the lake, have had 3 strikes and my buddy has a nice little 3 lb pike on the line. Fishing spinner baits, pike love these fuckers up here.He gets it into side of boat, im still reeling in a cast, tell other buddy to grab net, my friend with the fish on says no its good ill just unhook him. Lifts the head of fish with the rod and line tension and reaches to grab the lure, the pike, WELL know for head shakes when caught (he knows this, drugs MAY have been involved.... ok.... we were high) so the lure lets go, the rod no longer has tension, it snaps up like a catapult and this is what happens...... If you look closely at this one you can see the tip of the hook between his fingers, yes, he pierced his whole hand! Remember my friends, ALWAYS use the fucking net!!! We tried to push it through, it was in there good and caught, off to emerg we went.

Got to hit up my favorite band Monster Truck one more time the other night. Road tripped over 2 hours to see them this time, got there early, 2nd people in line! Got front row center and held on for the fucking ride! The opening act was a local band called Steel Train Rollers, they were pretty damn good and their drummer rocked the fuck outta his kit so hard he cracked his cymbal. They finished off, stage got cleared, and on came the fucking Truck! For the next hour and a half they rocked the fuck out. The boys in the band all know me by sight now and they all support my weight loss journey, their latest Album and Tour are called Sittin Heavy, so as I have been loosing weight I have been tweeting them pics of myself wearing their shirts as they get looser and looser on me and I tag my pics Sittin Lighter, they send out words of encouragement to me and egg me on! So, now how the night became so fucking epic. about 3 songs into their Set the lead guitarist Jeremy hops up on the railing right infront of me rocked a solo then reached down grabbed my hand and gave me a "Great to fucking see ya brother" BAM!!! Fanboys night is on fire!! Yes Im a fanboy, I love it too, seen these dirty bastards 16 times now!! So Im high on weed and high on life at this point, next song Im rocking the fuck out, devil horns up and head banging away, look over at the keyboardist Brandon, he gives me a huge smile and points at me nodding his head. BAMMMM!!! Im high on life at this point!! I am rocking the fuck out, there is 8 of us all on the rail front center that are all huge fans and have met throughout the shows over the last 2 years and we hook up for shows whenever we can and yes we all call ourselves fanboys LOL.So we are loving life, rocking out, its a couple songs later and Im rocking, The drummer locks eyes with me this time, huge smile, nods, points a drum stick at me and launches into a killer drum roll. Boys around me all in shock at this point, the fucking bands all over acknowledging me all night long, they are super jealous and on comes the coup de grats! Its encore time! They come back out and rock out 2 more songs. Finish off, crowd goes nuts, everyone hollering DONT FUCK WITH THE TRUCK!!! Cool Steve (The drummer) stands up with his drum sticks in hand, every other show I have been to He fires em off into the crowd, everyone starts yelling STEVE STEVE OVER HERE!!!! He shakes his head no, stands up, walks over to the edge of the stage and puts the stick right into my hand!!! FUCK YEAH MOTHER FUCKERS!!!!! Night has been made, I got wood!! Literally!! Boys were all over me, was like the fucking show was just for me!! Unreal night, one that for sure is going down in the History Books for me!! If ya havnt looked them up yet FUCKING DO IT!!!! Monster Trucks the band, face melting guitar riffs and soulfull singing is the plan! Here is a couple pics from the show! And here is a video one of my buddies right beside me took, he stopped it right before Steve came from behind the kit and gave me the stick, had he known he woulda kept it going he said LOL.

As many of you know, I have been working hard at losing some weight since the end of October. I had 2 HUGE weight loss moments I need to share with all my family here. When I started this journey I was 390lbs, ya, a fat fucker, LOL. The 1st huge moment of the week was my daughter hugging me from behind and exclaiming in shock that her fingers now touch!! The second big moment came this morning after my morning poop!!! I honestly dont remember the last time I saw a 2 at the front of my weight, I am not afraid to admit that I stood on the scale and shed a legit tear when I saw this!! I still have a bit to go, I am 6'1 so If i could get to 240 I would be VERY happy!!! Going strong and will be there soon enough!!!

I see it was time for the drunken admin votes... ahhh well.... could be worse... i guess.... !FU FireFuck!!! Welcome :-)

ya should implement the "Fight" from Mortal Combat for after you are thawed LOL

Is there a way so that if these maps were in rotation they can be say 3 or 5 rounds and normal sized maps could be the 9 rounds and even some of the small maps hell make them best of 15. some of the real small maps are over in 10 minutes even going to a tie breaker round LOL. Or do all the maps on the rotation need to be a set match limit of the same number? If the match number can float depending on size of map then I would give it a go

**Drags In the Dead Horse** Wheres the line up for beatings start?

Where bouts in Ontario you at BlackRose?

No secret at all, before this Lifestyle change i was 390lbs soaking wet LOL. wet from sweat LOL. I NEVER ate breakfast unless it was something from a greasy spoon diner, and I didnt do that often at all. Lunch would be 3 or 4 pieces of toast and peanut butter before heading to work at 11am, again maybe only 3 days of 7. I would work a 12 hour shift, while at work I would not bring food to work, I would drink 4 coffee and maybe once a week get a donut or a 10 pack of timbits (donut holes for you 'muricans) and maybe once a week grab a burger and fries, other days, i just didnt eat at work, never did in the years I been there. Then i would go home at 11pm... huge plate of food waiting for me from dinner, a big hunk of meat, a bunch of taters and some corn or beans. Id wolf that down with 3 or 4 pieces of buttered bread. then off to bed a half hour later and do it all again the next day. Then wonder why I was ballooning out and getting bigger and bigger but not SEEMING to be eating that much at all compared to other people. After talking to a nutritionist i found out that by not eating all day then powering a heavily carbed bread filled dinner of 2000 calories and going to bed my body was thinking it was starving even though i was morbidly obese. everything I ate, my body would store because it didnt know when it would get food next October 27th of last year, after a lengthy conversation with a radio dj I know who was at the time 90lbs lost, I decided to start eating different. Stopped eating bread for the 1st month and started eating regular. for breakfast I would have a bowl of cereal, usualy half honey nut cheerios half multigrain cheerios and a banana at around 730am. around 10 I would have a clementine or apple or handfull of grapes. around noon I will have 2 hard boiled eggs, a piece of fruit and a 5 calorie reduced sugar snack pack jello. around 230-300 i would have another piece of fruit or some carrot sticks and celery with a handfull of unsalted almonds. Dinner would be a nice big hunk of protien, a big ole chicken breast, a porkchop, a couple pieces of roast beef. with that i would have a bit of long grain rice or 1 potato cut up and boiled with a bit of becel and a huge serving of California mix (Brocholli, cauliflower and carrots mixed) I stopped using ketchup, switched to sriracha hot sauce, i hated my veggies, this was the only way i could force em down, cover them in hot sauce and cram them in, i knew i needed to, not only for the vitamin aspect but for filler at low calorie cost, dont mind them as much now, still use sriracha though LOL. around 730 i would have another piece of fruit (usually clementines, fuck i love them LOL) then i wouldnt eat nothing else. Do it all again the next day. I would change up flavours of cereal and once a week I would have a tuna sandwich on ancient grain bread with quinoa instead of the eggs. The wife doesnt understand how i am not sick of cereal and hard boiled eggs yet, its been 6 months. but when ya dont normally have them things, to cram them in and continue on your day as if nothing happened is nothing to me, just a means to a way ya know. it was working, didnt want to fuck with it. 4.5 months in I was 65 lbs down, lost all the weight i had gained when i quit smoking 6 years ago. The weight loss stopped, was still eating the same, yet the scale wasnt moving, I had leveled off, it happens. So I introduced a bit of exersize about 3 weeks ago. I would smoke a huge joint or do a couple shatter dabs and plug in some tunes in my headset and cruise the mall for an hour a day on my days off. weight started coming off again and I am now at 83lbs lost as of yesterday, the 27th of April exactly 6 months into this journey. Interested to see what the next 6 months brings!!!

For the past couple years a few friends of mine have been going fishing at the Niagara Falls Whirl Pool. Trout, Muskie, Bass, Tons of fish in this place, people fly from all over the world to fish the whirl pool. It is a pretty epic hike down to the water and an even tougher hike back out with a shit ton of stairs to climb, but not normal stairs, these fuckers were built for a giant... the step up to each stair is 2 railway ties, so a hell of alot higher that a normal step, and there are a shit load of them! Well I am... or should say was, a really big fat fuck, no hope in hell I would have been able to make the climb back out, so I never went with them..... until yesterday! Have lost 80lbs now in the last 6 months and decided to give it a go! The hike in was beautiful and not too bad, took about 15 minutes to get down to the water. We didnt catch any fish, saw 4 nice rainbows caught, then made the hike out, I had to take 4 breaks on the hike out, a shit ton of stairs and paths to get out, took about 40 minutes but I fucking made it!! This was a HUGE personal feat for me, never did I ever think I would make it down there. Things can only get better from here!!! When I made it down Beautiful view from down here!!! just a SMALL section of the stairs... there are a fuck of a lot more... trust me LOL I am still amazed I was able to do this, from just under of 400lbs to climbing out of the Niagara Whirlpool 83 lbs lighter 6 months later..... FUCK YEAH!!!
