Not that ANY of you care!!! But....

That's awsome Pat!!!!! It's not easy cutting weight by any means. I went from around 250 to right around 189 (it took a loooong time) because I was tired of rolling around and boxing with the heavy weights at my gym. After I got there I wasn't happy at that weight (I felt too small) and started lifting heavy and eating again to get back up to my current weight of around 240. I like being bigger better personally. I lift 6 days a week and run on the treadmill for 3 miles a pop (takes me 40 mins. to run 3 miles though-lol) 2 to 3 times a week (this is for cardio not to lose weight-lol). It is a lot eaiser being big then cutting weight so God bless you bro in your efforts. Keep up the good work and do whatever makes you happy and healthy!!! On a side note the one thing I am unhappy about is the fact that I am only like 5 foot 8. If someone can get me a workout program to push me over 6 foot I would appreciate it ;)

That's great!!

That's GREAT Pat!!! Proud of you man! I have a bunch of awesome stuff bookmarked for nutrition & keeping fit. I study it like a religion ;) It's cool because I love to cook - I cook healthy...everything from scratch, no preservatives, no garbage. I only eat out occasionally and when I do (I have a trick) I have the server bring me a to-go box with the meal when it comes out and I put 1/2 in the box before I start to eat :D All about portion control. I go to the gym 4-6 days a week for about 1 1/2 -2 hours a day - I love it, can't get enough. By the the time I'm leaving the gym I FEEL GREAT!

Now if I could stop smoking...and smoking...

hey congrats pat, that is great news that you are taking your health seriously. so many people don't realize this is the only body you get... no refunds or exchanges... this is IT. the cells in your body... are yours to keep. so taking the best possible care of them is essential.

i've released a few pounds myself in the last while and am a much happier mama... amazing what you can do at 1/2 the body weight. :banana:

keep up the good work and remember... if you are hungry... eat something raw and real. veggies and fruit are your friend!!! (not the kind of friend you want to keep forever... the kind you wanna eat, digest and flush away) kinda like earl! :rofl:
