  1. Anyone done this program? We got the Windsor Pilates DVD's last year, I tried the introductory DVD once, and even though I'd been wanting them for some time, never did it again. Thinking of giving it another go as it's no impact, and my joints are starting to ache again with the extra weight I'm piling on. Plus........seems like whenever you see someone who does pilates/yoga.......they're a very "lean" muscular, rather than bulky. I believe they say something about it being from working your long muscles or something??? Right now........I'm kinda shaped like Jerome Bettis
  2. 254.8 this a.m........so a whopping 2lbs from start......little over 6lbs. since Monday. I forgot about weigh in today........stopped and got milkshake to settle stomach on cab ride home from Cincy last night.....had heartburn
  3. You 'da shit Anna.........Is there anything that you don't know about??? I've wondered about if I was gaining sympathy weight. I've been joking about it........only problem is that my wife will be losing hers in a few weeks, and I'll still be.....FAT!! :icon_wall: BTW........Praline Pecan ROCKS!!!
  4. I can always count on you for good, solid advice Redd!! You're a peach!
  5. Only other thing I'm thinkin' it could be, is that for about 3-5 months last year I was running about 3.5 miles one day, then lifting the next. Weight was still hanging around 245......wasn't losing anything really, but thought maybe I was seeing/feeling some changes in the mirror. Got sick in between Thanksgiving/Christmas & quit for about month or 2. Have picked the running back up last few weeks, though not at the same distance 'cause of the increased weight. Knee has been bothering me again afterwards too. Anyway.........quit that about 4 months ago, but wondering if my sudden weight increase the last 6 weeks or so is tied to that............delayed reaction???
  6. Anyone use/know anything about this stuff??
  7. OK.......Bad news.........ate crap all weekend (daughter's b-day party) and weighed in at 260 yesterday a.m!!!!! Haven't weighed that much in 3 years......scary!! Good news.......ran with the boys for about 40 min's last night at their track practice Bad news........still weighed 260 last night Good news.......lost about a lb of it this a.m I'm beginning to wonder if there's something wrong with me. In the last couple months I've been gaining weight like CRAZY!!! And I don't think I'm eating any worse than I have previously
  8. Official Friday morning weigh in..........257.6 Activity this week..........played basketball for better part of an hour Monday night in my son's "Parent/Son Scrimmage" for their last practice of the season. Ran couple miles (1/2 hour) 3 or 4 times this week. Passed on several bad food choices 'cause of you guys , but still had other snacks even though I knew you were watching!!! :icon_nono: Plus I've been taking that HydroxyCut All in all :icon_wall:
  9. How often are we going to "officially" weigh in Anna? 'Cause my weight fluctuates several pounds daily
  10. I'm in.........Lord knows I need all the motivation I can get!!! Have put on 15 lbs just since holidays......30 lbs. in last 16 months since I got my student engineer card!!! I even bought a bottle of that HydroxyCut last week and have been trying it.....STILL putting on weight!! I'm in full fledged CRISIS mode at this point!! :icon_silenced: 257 now Would like to be down to 220-225 by NeXXt. Thanx for formalizing this/putting it together Anna!! :icon_clap:
  11. I'd be very interested, depending on the price Randy! The silver/brushed, or even chrome would look very sweet!
  12. OK........NOW I'm tempted!!! :roll: Wife & kids are having Pizza Hut right now.......uuuuuuuuuggggggghhhhhhhhhh......and they made ME go get it?!? :shock: MUST..STAY...STRONG Eating the delicious scrambled eggs my daughter ate me......I mean made me
  13. That reminds me.........have you found the south beach forum. Kinda funny.........it's the same format as this one. Here's the link....... http://www.southbeach-diet-plan.com/forum/index.php I did searches for some of the things I wasn't sure were allowed or not. Pretty helpful. There's several lists on there of do's/don'ts
  14. Almost forgot.......we got those sugar free jellos too. Haven't tried one yet....I keep forgetting they're in there. Never been a big jello person (unless it's mixed with whip cream :twisted: ) but I guess desperate times call for desperate measures!!
  15. Hey..........we started the same day......I'm on Day 4 now too!!! I weigh myself everyday...always have...damage control Anyway, I'm down about 5-6 lbs so far. Have had a few quick cravings for stuff, usually TV commercial induced, but nothing I've caved to so far. Hang tough. My wife wanted to do it with me again.......she was my rock the last time, but with her being pregnant, she's having a harder time sticking to it this time :wink:
  16. OK........was reading this thread again the other day & decided to give SB a try. Today was day 1/Phase 1. Bought the book last night. Had lost 52 lbs. over the last couple years, but this year have seen 20-25 of it come back. Sitting on my ass as an engineer plus the hours aint helpin'. At least as a conductor I was constantly walking 2-4 mile trains & climbing up and down ladders all day. 1 day down..........13 to go
  17. I didn't see anyone calling you a liar in that thread, but your numbers definitely don't make sense. 58lb/ft of torque is more like 750 numbers vs. XX numbers (rated @ 85, IIRC).
  18. Glad to hear I'm not the only one. I pulled 153 when I had mine dynoed back in Sept. I was really stoked about my first time on the dyno until everyone on here started getting hatey with me.......kinda calling me a liar, or telling me I got ripped off by the dealership with a shoddy run. I'll have to go back and find that post. Found it.........Here's the link to that old thread...... http://www.cbr1100xxforums.org/forum/viewt...der=asc&start=0

    undertails

    You're right........That does look SWEET!! However, $$ is always an issue with me ........how much did that one set you back? Did you install it, or have someone else do her, and how hard was it?

    Sparkplugz

    That's 'cause the bean burritos were subsidizing your mileage so you didn't notice the dropoff!!! :twisted:
  22. Got her all put back together today, and rode her for about 30 miles. She was leaking coolant after about 5 minutes of running. I shut her down & pulled the tank back up. Couldn't really find anything. Started her up again & she never did it anymore. Josh thought maybe she had a "burp" since I had the hoses off?? Stayed in the neighborhood at first. Stopped and got some Isoheat and put it in, since she seemed to be idling a little rough even though she'd been running for 1/2 hour at that point. Seemed to smooth out after that. Ventured out around town and then hit the expressway & opened her up to 100 for a few miles. Did notice a slight hesitation a couple times.....not sure what that was, or maybe just my head. Anyone notice my post above about the plugs I pulled out? Do those sound like the originals, and what's the black soot a sign of.......running too rich? I'll try & post pix of them a little later......think my Palm is uploading again.
  23. All I got left is the tank. Not sure where a couple of these hoses go. Big one coming out from under the tank. If you're looking up under the tank, it's on the left hand side and comes directly out from the tank, not the petcock. Little skinny one directly under the #2 plug? One that's attatched to white plastic hose clip and I think the overflow bottle hose in a T ??? I know the other end used to hang down by the shock. I had to tear it out from under seat area to get tank all the way off. Other end is still attached to the petcock under the tank. Not sure where the 3rd end of the T goes and what that clip clips on to. There are 2 skinny little nozzles at the bottom of the petcock.....Is that where the 2 skinny little hoses in previous 2 paragraphs go? If so, which one to which nozzle? P.S. Thanx Josh P.P.S.....sent you a PM Master P.P.P.S.......I'll be up late tonight watching the Steeler's game!!!
  24. Mine's about the same as yours. I get anywhere from 120-150 a tank on mine depending on how much gas I shoehorn in her. I'm changing my plugs right now. I'm kinda curious to see if I get better mileage now like some of these other guys seem to.
