for the record, I am eating cheetos and drinking a Dr. Pepper.

real healthy fat bastard. :slaps forehead:

oh, and in case I don't check the skipament thread again...

what's the buy-in Nate? I may try to put some money on stars if it's not too rich.

Up your fiber intake... carrots and celary sticks work wonders as a snack

if you take a huge dump at least once every 24 hours, and aren't over eating, you're on the way to dropping serious poundage

also... don't starve yourself... just eat less at a time but more often... and nothing 2 hours before sleep


and if you wanna get high... hit the treadmill... seriously if you burn enough fat the THC stored in it will activate... not AS strong but it's somethin

You have no idea how funny this statement is

I have to student teach this semester, so I'm just on winterbreak right now, but that ends in like a week and a half. Then I'll be doing slave labor, by being a teacher for the semester and not getting paid. Then the plan is to get a job in either NC, Chicago, or Vegas for the start of next year.

Also, I am currently being staked to play $25max NL. But hopefully it'll soon be $50max, woot!

Honestly I'm not motivated enough to do this right now. I think I got as high as like 285ish a few months ago and since then I have been eating better, but not killing myself. I'm on a lifestyle change where I just eat smarter, I know how to be healthy I just haven't been and really let myself go.

I would say right now I'm probably around 265ish. Once I get down to 240ish I'll really kick it in to high gear. The final goal for me is to get back down to 200. I've only been there like once in my adult life and I did not understand fitness as much back then. The way I did it then was I was at 240 and disgusted and ran every single day, starting with one mile and built to like five miles, but my eating was horrible (basically a pack of ramen noodles for a meal, or a piece of chicken). That got me down to 200 over like 3.5 months. But I hate running, even when I was in shape I hated it.

I will get back to doing that, as well as some sprints and stuff, but the problem is I let myself go so far that if I get back into it I hurt my knee, back, and other things. I need to get down to 245ish again so that I can start doing the exercise I want to without causing pain! So basically I'm going to keep eating a healthy diet, high in protein, moderate to low in calories, and low in fat. Once I lose another 20 or so pounds on diet alone I will add in physical exercise. My long term goal is like 200-210 by September, but I won't be full out exercising until probably April-ish.

I understand where you are coming from somewhat. I used to weigh 185 when i got out of college 6 years ago, but now i weigh 240. I'm 6'2'', and people always tell me "Naa, you're not overweight, you're a tall guy."
But that doesn't make me feel better, nor get rid of the fat rolls i've developed around my waist.

I'm going to take a serious approach to my health and diet this time, and for the past week i can honestly say that i've been eating and trying to run/walk more than i ever have before, and even though the scale isnt' showing much results, I feel better, which is a start. Its kinda like poker, keep doing the little things right and the results should come hopefully.

Good luck to you in your efforts.

geez, you guys are all huge

shut your mouth before we eat you.

i'm 165 and this is the heaviest i been all my life...

I actually had trouble gainin weight for the longest time... yall makin me feel puny

You must be kidding?

The league is so rigged this year that you know it's already set in stone. They're going to hype the shit out of 40 year old grizzled veteran, who has been dying for one last SuperBowl ring vs. the MVP and his unbeaten, record setting, ultrapowerful offense.

Tell me you're not secondary ed. If you are, GET OUT NOW!

I was secondary ed for a year and a half, observed in three local schools (ok, it was mostly naptime for me) - first school I went to, the teacher had a bunch of idiots for students. Second school I went to, I got shuffled between three different teachers due to the one guy's schedule (better than school #1, but still just as boring.) 3rd school, I couldn't take it anymore and changed from History/Secondary Ed. to a pure History Major.

And, on the subject of weight loss: I'm 5'7, and 215. Want to lose 15, shouldn't be very difficult.

We're starting Monday, correct? Somebody come up with some rules for it.

here's the rule:

LOSE WEIGHT YOU FAT BASTARDS






(myself included in that as well for the record)

Yeah, I guess we're the midgets of the NLHE Strat Forum? I only weigh 160, and I don't think I've ever weighed more than that in my life.

I was thinking of weight betting my friend that I could gain 140 pounds and lose it all in like 1 1/2 years - but I've been thinking about it, and none of my friends would have enough money to make this a profitable play.

i'm honestly in shock. i pictured nate as a scrawny 160-pder, acid around 180 but built, t-skilz scrawny, and cobalt big.

i did get on the scale this weekend after eating junk all weekend. i weighed 181 but i'm 5'7 ish so i'm defininitely a bit plump at the moment. i feel/look good at around 155.

maybe it's cause I know the kid but I seriously LOL'd when I read that

lol... i couldn't win that bet simply bc i couldn't gain that much weight in the first place...

i do, however, attribute that to my eating patterns... truth be told i probably don't eat much less than the rest of the group posting here... but the fact i do eat slowly over a long period of time helps my metabolism adjust...

plus i dip + smoke... which gives me other bad side effects but... if you wanna stop eating... put 2 pinches of Copenhagen in your bottom lip for 2 hours... after u take it out i guarentee you won't wanna eat too much due to residual taste... cancer FTW!!!11one

cocain is another great way to lose weight though i wouldn't recommend it

Andromeda if you need $5.5 on stars let me know.

I hadn't really thought about what people look like on here. I mean, if No_Neck is any indication, well, yeah.

Also, I'm like 6'-2" and about 245ish, but I know I'd probably win in a fight against most forum members

LOL at the bolded part.

seriously i couldn't have picked either of you guys out of a line-up. it's really weird.

i really need to meet the guys in this thread.

I've met 0 people from FCP. I'm friends with a few people on facebook (they obv friended me, cuz I got real life friends and don't need any of you ) So I kind of know what Zach, Acid, Drcossack look like, and not really any clue of Naismith.

I haven't really thought about what anyone looked like either though, just a bunch of screen names. When I was at my lightest I looked like a dude that lost a lot of weight, I'm naturally pretty big. I'm 6'1'' played football and bball in high school and look kind of like an out of shape high school athlete, and recently was told I look like the out of shape Mr. Incredible, hahah.

trying to sort out the funds on PS - Krup, PM sent! Worst case, I can ship someone $5.50 on FT, just can't get $ onto PS tonight.

basically I'm good to go once funds are sorted but I'm not used to PS so how the hell do I find the tournament???

That photo is also in my profile on here. I only have three photos of myself online (two of which are my profile pics on Facebook), but I'm too lazy to add more (they're my Senior Pictures from high school anyway)

Don't take this the wrong way people, but I don't care wtf you look.

Would you care if I said I'm 4'7" and 275lb?

I might laugh a little, but no, it wouldn't matter.


Did I mention that obese midgets are like my #1 turn on?

Quoted in signature.

Cwik!!!!!!!!!

You see this? That's #3, and #4 if we're counting that crappy sig you got

It's true about the midgets. They're like little bouncy balls.

i actually picture naismith really big and odd looking

looooool.

Soon as I see something else funny, this is getting replaced.

Maybe it's my larger than life personality.

But seriously...I've probably got one of the lightest BMIs on the forums aside from chrozzo. cwik's a challenger and checkymcfold is rather thin also.

If you and cwik weren't so tall, I'm sure I'd outweigh the two of you combined. I still might.

I love watching Sportcenter when the show TO crying about the media being unfair about Romo and Yoko Romo

i don't know what it is. it could definitely be your personality but i recall seeing your picture when you were the featured player of the month on FCP and if i recall you didn't look that thin but it was only a headshot

so i haven't played on full tilt since november 2005 so it's been a while obv. so i trade andromeda 5 bucks for the skipament and i say well i'll play a 1.25 sng just to see how site has changed. First hand below

Probably that pic from my profile. I don't actually "look" as light as I am...which I think is a small blessing. I mean, people know that I'm thin, but they're surprised when I tell them my weight.

damnit, I never get flops like that...FTP hates me

after cobalt linked me to his profile i saw acid's profile pic as well and thats where i that you were built. you look like a hard ass in that pic. i don't think i could make that face if i tried.

did I finish the highest of the Strat forum guys? I was 10th.

18 here

zach u watch the pens. zomg awesome!!@

I won.

In the sense that I knocked out Nate, I mean.

Obv.

Seriously. Never thought I'd be kind of on the lighter side.



That's going in a sig. Guaranteed.

EDIT: NM



My guess has been 5'6" round and bald.

Whenever I think of Naismith, I always think of that damn Buccaneer. Long mustache, sexy hat, dagger in the mouth and a foil to go along with it. Actually, that's sort of disturbing.



I think I'm going to start to call you "Naismuth."

am i allowed to post here drunk or does that require a separate thread¿¿¿¿¿
