well.....we just dont like you anymore..............................Going through this mid life thingy, I look at a french fry and gain 15 pounds. Tonight we had boneless chicken, and mushrooms, and I eat healthy most of the time.
That is soooo not fair.
Of course, at that point I had no choice, so I complied.
279 pounds as of today....thats 21 pounds that I have lost.
One of the drivers on my center is a very good personal friend. About a year ago he started bugging me to go to the doctor, get a complete physical, prostate exam etc. I blew him off for awhile, so he called my wife and had her schedule the appointment.
This buddy of mine happens to chew tobacco. So...in the same spirit of of friendship, accountability and concern for health that he so kindly expressed for me.....I have informed him (as his true friend, of course) that once I lose 40 pounds, he will be quitting tobacco!
Maybe you can lose yours when sober hits 50lbs, eh missy?
Maybe you can lose yours when sober hits 50lbs, eh missy?
Maybe you can lose yours when sober hits 50lbs, eh missy?
True, but it's easier to do it with a buddy, and besides dilli, we'll all be holding your hand from where we are.Why 50? You're right. I need to but not because of someone else goal. I need to for me and right now I don't care. Right now I don't care about anything.

Lighten up a little Tiger, I don't think Stug was being intentionally rude, he just thinks everyone should be on a health kick and run for hours on end to get right back to where ya started.
I'm guessing that Steve has been misunderstood here. I thought he was referring to Dilli's tobacco habit, not saying that she needed to lose weight. If Upstate thought he was suggesting the latter, then I can understand his heated response.
WHAT, is none of my damned business? Dilli smokes and wants to quit that habit. She posted this fact in the quit smoking thread some time back (http://www.browncafe.com/forum/f6/help-me-quit-smoking-236039/ ). She also stated here that she'd like to quit smoking, so I simply suggested that she join sober on his quest, (in reference to what sober said about getting his buddy to quit tobacco). Was there a misunderstanding? If there was, wouldn't it have been better stated without the slam on my posting style? Afterall, Dave, not everyone is the great linguistical genius/UPS'er that you are. Oh, I forgot to say OUCH!
Stephen was refering to my smoking. I knew that. Dave may not have known that. It's ok.
Stop this now please, before it gets out of control. I knew what you were refering to last night when you posted your comments. I chose not to reply to the second one because I was in no mood to. At this point in time I don't want to deal with it.WHAT, is none of my damned business? Dilli smokes and wants to quit that habit.

555, I think that most people that smoke or are overweight and have been that way for some time, have either settled in to the fact that this is who they have become, or don't think they can change. Dilli has expressed a concern and willingness to change something in her life that she's not pleased with, which is the key to starting. Being the concerned little bro, if you will, I merely suggested that it would be good incentive for both her and sober at this juncture. Sobe loses the weight and dilli the cigs, it's a win/win for both.
As far as health kicks go? It would be nice to help people get healthier, but that would be a "Whole" other thread.
Great job so far sober! You can definitely do this, it's who you are.
