So after my injury (the ref to "lame" in the subject) and the subsequent weight gain, I was at a loss on how to loose more weight than I have ever had to (by a friggen magnitude) while still not being fully mobile;a Here is what has happened so far: I've lost more than 10% of my body weight in two months by following weight watchers guidelines. I track points, measure everything, eat enough veggies to shit green. I track the points I expend for my workouts. I negotiate the flex points throughout the week to be sure I have a day I can pig out or get wasted. Needless to say, I don't go to meetings or ask for support from the wonderful ladies who have discovered that by doing toe lifts while at the copy machine they can burn extra calories. They certainly have their road to walk, but I think it is a different direction that a climber would walk. However, buying all the initial information from them was a great investment. Not the meetings though... That is all good for other folk, but I need to be ready to climb again and don't find a lot of common ground between the copy room and Jack's Pass. The meetings I attended were more on motivating the group toward specific goals besides "not be fat". Cool, but I need more than that. And I bet I am not the only one. And I am just sayin that tracking what you eat keeps you honest. When you know you have gone too far off into the weeds and need to come back to real calorie land, it helps to know where you should be versus where you were. It motivates the workout times and intensities as well. Gives you slack for those days you need it. So, just throwing this out there to anyone facing weight frustration after an injury. PM me if you want to chat, share, encourage, add, discourage, warn away, cheerlead for. It would be nice to have a thread or two in the fitness forum that discusses the most current challenges members have face and how they are working to regrain reachable levels of fitness or ability after being faced with an unexpected limitation. Get healthy! A and feel free to pm me directly if you are not ready to post. I will never post anything without your permission. Let's just see where this goes.

If I ever get to meet Fred again, I'd like to tell him, "The wedder is good here!".

I hate it when people send their kids door to door selling Xmas wrapping paper or whatever. I know our schools need more money, but do people really want to turn their brats into little junior sales people? Disgusting.

I'm too old for the perverts and I'm not old enough to get hit on by the normal Frenchies yet.

Can I just say I am really happy I live in a time and a place where men discuss stuff like this? This thread/discussion restores my hopes that things can get better.

Thank you thank you thank you!!!!!

Here ya go... Dr. Mohktee, Dr. Keramati, and Dr. Kirchhoff handle most of the more complex hand injuries. Office number is 206-363-6947 and here is the link to the website: http://www.nwhand.com/

I have a friend who works for a hand specialist (surgeon). I emailed her to find out if your type of injury is something they deal with regularly. I'll get back to you once I hear from her. Take care.

I always wondered what those guys were talking about out there on the pitch.

Bolt the world.

Maurice is the man! But the choice of mullets is astounding.

on the intrawebs!

My goal is Mt. Helena. I took my first "hike" yesterday (thank god I can just walk out my door and be at the trailhead in 20 min) and made it up to the treeline. By December, I want to make it to the summit.

When is her uterus going to fall out?

That pic would be better with the nipple thingy showing

Have any of the aging octagenarian Nazis killed anyone in the ensuing 64 years?

I have an awesome dehydrator. It is a round, stackable one called "Harvest" somethingerather. I will look at it when I get home on the 6th. I have used it for years and it works well. One caveat: herbs don't work well in dehydrators. Just tying the herbs up and covering them with a paper bag and hanging them somewhere warm and dry (I hang my next to the furnace in the basement) and they will be ready in a week or two.

Fixed title

Holy shite I want a beer! With one that strong, I'll need a nanny to talk care of me afterwards.

What a shame for Switzerland," said photographer Otto Weisser, a friend of Polanski. So, to the fathers in the group; is drugging and raping a 13 year old a "little mistake". Gross.

I am on my way to WalMart right now.

Fucking hilarious!

The accident was May 9th. So it has been a while. Of course I have had follow up X-rays; six sets so far. What I need to know is the effect of metal removal on pain levels after one year.
