  4. This is an old forum...but humor me fellas. How do you handle alcohol after sleeve??? I'm like 1.5 years post sleeve. I love Whiskey. I find I get a huge up front buzz after drinking it..but it fades after 30 min or so. Just curious what other Bros are experiencing. I can drink about 3 mixed drinks before I need to chill...but same thing...it wears off after 30-45 minutes. Hit me up!!

  7. We would need at least 8 teams I'd say to get going. Season starts Thursday. Could draft Wednesday night if we can get more teams. Definitely last minute, but I'm in!

  9. I am mostly Goodwill for clothes. Guys here recommended it, and I see why. I get most of my work clothes here, and occasional buy some casual clothes at Ross or Wal-Mart. I don't change sizes as much now cause I'm nearing my 1 year sleeversary. I've saved a lot of money and I get to recycle clothes back to goodwill so others can benefit too.
  10. I think my hair on head loss is minimal..but closer I get to 40 I think it's thinning anyway. I have trouble with beard hair coming out...but probably do need to keep better track of my protein in-take. Had some tell me to forget it and go bald! I'll keep that in mind...but not sure that's a goal for me right now!!! Need to keep my youth!!
  11. I think I've changed too. I was a 13 1/2 before. Need to probably go with a 12 1/2 now. I have some 13-14 boots though that I still wear. Love my boots too much to part with em!!
  12. Definitely! I sold my Ram and bought a Hummer cause I felt bad ass after losing 70lbs. I got rid of my Chrysler & got a candy apple red IS250. Needed power and speed...and it helps I could actually fit in it!!!!! Lol!!!
  13. We did Fantasy Football last year with our sleevers. I LOST miserably! Open for more torture if anyone wants to do a sleeve league again. We have to move quick...but thought I'd throw it out there and see if interest was there.

  15. Had a few bouts with it at my largest 395 post op. Once I lost 50 lbs and got off BP meds, the wood shed is stocked and ready to go. No problems ever getting an erection now. Much harder than ever during sex. So...yes, it does get better after the weight loss.
  16. I'll put a third agree with Shace on this one. I completely don't lose anything for a good three weeks and then I have an epic week! I might weigh myself more often, but just don't take it seriously. My real measure is whether my clothes fit me better, and the monthly weigh in.

  18. Welcome Alex & Congrats on the sleeve decision! Best decision I've made to have a healthier lifestyle! Lots of veteran sleevers on here with good knowledge & happy to help.
  19. Good luck Bro! I completely enjoyed first 5K and think it's about time for another! Make sure Doc is good with the 5K (I'm sure u checked.) since you mentioned that ab pain. I don't think they have a shuttle as part of the 5K! Lol!!! Enjoy!!
  20. Thanks guys!!! Double bonus is it broke my stall too!!! Dropped 15 lbs with the HIIT I was doing to get ready for 5K!! Now I gotta go dig in the trash & get my scale back! Yep...it wouldn't move...and burning it wasn't working...LOL!!!!
  21. This is truly the thread that just keeps on giving!!! I bet it will have years and years of posts on it before it dies! If it ever does!!
  22. Well Fellas...I SURVIVED!!!! Let me be clear that I did a nice brisk walk/jog vs running! Lol!!! 54 minutes...but I got it done damn it!!! My daughter had a great time which is what I cared about most. Thanks for all the support because it was much needed! I think I'm ready for another one now that I've caught my breath!!!!
  23. Thanks guys! Will let you know how it turns out. Just finished HIIT so I think we're almost ready! Looking forward to it.
