I hardly drink anymore , whenever I touch it , ends up being an expensive night that usually ends badly. But I could not just say I‘m never having beer because of the calories. And the thing about weight/obesity, I am not saying being 250,300 , 350 is healthy , it’s not …But being 50 lbs above your ideal weight is not by itself going to automatically cut 15 years off your life. Smoking a pack a day+ will , though You like beer so much , enjoy yourself , just maybe research a better way to keep the waistline in check, I’m sure there’s a solution

I’m much better now, but always maintained my COVID messed with many of my bodily functions . Last 2 years or so, I also get that chest pain, if I need to drop a #2 or especially have trapped gas. Don’t know how in my late 40’s not farting suddenly leads to a tight sternum, but I quickly made the correlation, once it’s released….zero pain! Still weird

@KhunDon Yes it’s obvious different companies are not consistent in terms of sizing. But all due respect, 75kg and you are buying XXL ? You should expect it to be loose! I’m 143kg & that’s my size, albeit snug , 3XL is better BTW, if you have UNIQLO near you or access online, cannot recommend enough. Good quality, cheap but still stylish. Still debating whether or not to buy a bunch of stuff from Calvin Klein, but my choices would be infinitely greater if I was XL or smaller , especially the underwear section ! Oh and for whoever is reading this …..SKECHERS HAS REALLY RAISED THEIR PRICES ! Used to be $60 CAD or way less on sale, sometimes $30, I’d pick up a great pair of casual walking shoes . Now less selection, no sales , everything is like $110 ! At those prices, PUMA, Nike , Adidas are more logical choices

Don’t heckle my boy Rory…..You’ll lose your phone ! Didn’t hear what was said ,beforehand, but the kid is a top golfer for Texas & future PGA player(probably ). But him and his mates were kicked out as well right after the “interaction” on Hole 18 Tuesday practice at TPC Whatever , I just hope the Yankee fans are respectful in New York for the upcoming Ryder Cup in September. But, it’s war USA-Europe , 30,000 fans there ‘s ALWAYS GOT TO BE ONE WHO JUST HAS TO BE AN ARSEHOLE AND YELL OBSCENITIES

Never met him but he came across as the nicest guy . To not yet see 40 and pass….very sad. Diabetes and a healthy appetite for the suds don’t mix well, but still, just a kid. And like you say, apparently she was so loyal to her man, and poof! Gone

Yes Cliff I saw that from a quick search I did on the forum just now. I lost Dad 2 hours into that same month, then was crazy busy travelling back and forth East-West & working until I almost killed the old man housing me…..Kicked me out of his house when I let it slip I was going back to Montreal, took me about 6 weeks to catch on he was keeping all the good rides for himself, giving me the shite left over he couldn’t cover, but still expecting me to be on call 20 hours /day……while charging me through the roof for my room and taxi. Hope he’s dead by now, or at least out of the business , we had met in 2011, was 4 of us White boys vs 500 Somalis, we got to stick together right ? Wrong, even though many of those guys were thieves , there was a reason he was so hated in the industry, you find out lots about a man when he’s basically your landlord and boss all day. Happy I didn’t do it as I gathered my belongings , f—k me it’s Canada & I have no record, might have gotten away with house arrest! But man that was a stressful few months, what a cnut he was But still, never saw you mention the stroke. I had said if you want to keep smoking, go for it, as my Grandpa had those 4 strokes all after he quit in his 60’s, but that was 2019 before all this pandemic BS Anyway, congrats on the weight loss, sorry this happened to you, but hey….every day above ground is a good day, no ? Plus you still have a sweet “morena” half your age, looking after you…. I’d get started on White Western women vs Asians and Latinas, but this post is long enough already …..😂😂😂 Trying to get over for May 2026 and my 50th, would like to have a bash but I’d be stupid to do that before I have some $$$$ socked away. Would rather return to work, and whether it’s Thailand or Colombia, just make my next vacation a one-way plane ride and retire at 54-55. I won’t be making the same $$$ I used to, and after a 24 hour flight I can’t justify even 3 weeks, got to be minimum 2 months & also see Phils/Vietnam/PP. But if I hit a score in poker, and say f—k it one month is better than nothing, would love to see you in Korat…..The province owes me one, I’ve shagged & supported enough of their birds !

When was this Cliff ? F—k me, I did step away for 8 months or so. I remember a post in your backyard you looked great, it was before then ? Thanks BTW, it’s not rocket science to reduce my belly, I’ve proven that time and again. Wish it was rocket science to buy soda or pizza, like a casino SELF-EXCLUSION but for food ? 😂

I think Seve sadly got far more respect in the after life than he did during his playing days. Man was a legend, but I can see why the Yanks hated him, especially in competitive Ryder Cup years . He stepped away young & passed at what, 54? It’s funny we had a lead singer of one of Canada’s best bands pass at same age from glioblastoma, I don’t believe the stats of 1/100,000 people will die from this , far too many famous people with no $$$ worries have died of this recently. BRain cancer is so bad, but not rare, either. It’s about to take out a YouTuber from UK who blogs about Thailand, Steady Eddie Best of luck with your condition, I hope it’s “liveable “ ? I learned 2 years ago how fragile our health can be, the COVID I wished had killed me, it was that bad

Funnily enough, zero grip strength here Paul. I foolishly cracked my knuckles for decades, and I could push 315 on the bench, naturally, when I was 21, but on back and biceps pulling days, my grip gave out pretty quick. In my cabbie days in the oil sands around 2012, biggest forearms plus the grip to match was an ironworker I brought to the airport….MF shook my hand & I felt shame, the wrist to the elbow just plain THICK! But he quickly told me the job develops it very easily You play golf? A strong grip is an asset and is proven to add yards, you have to grip the club loosely for a fluid swing, but still hang on…..if the forearms are very weak, the player WON’T hang on. Dad had a lesson booklet from the 1960’s , pro in there said just squeeze a tennis ball all winter while driving & watching TV, by spring should add 5 yards or more to the drive The biggest hands were deffo Andre the Giant, he could make a beer can disappear, but I just got reminded of this FB post the week Dad passed in 2021….Not Andre, but decent mitts I got

Oh! Just had my umpteenth wake-up call with regards to my weight. It hurts but hey, I’ve always said I never take offense if someone calls me a fat f—k….I am. If the airlines ever charged me for 2 seats, I wouldn’t cry, I’d say thank you for the health advice Been debating doing an online haul at Calvin Klein, but I still like the brick & mortar stuff . When downtown, nice mall had a Nike store, no shoes caught my eye. Then I go into a 3 storey UniQlo , and got my epiphany…. Looked around , biggest size is XL, grabbed 2 loose pants & 2 shirts. Snapped a pic, the camera NEVER LIES! Obviously all 4 items were given back to the sales lady , with my apology Springtime is here….TIME TO UP THE WALKS & REDUCE THE SIZE OF MY PLATES! You got to be honest with yourself , I am done blaming my LONG COVID, or saying “but I carry it well” THE truth is, since 2005 or so, have not been below 260/118 kg except for my year in Thailand & when I was skin & bones the first 2 months of my illness. I’m not saying I must reach 175 lbs & try to box with Canelo, but 315 is just too much , and it took the dressing room to show me

You know it buddy ! 😂😂😂 Despite all the concussions Dad gave me and the palpitations I get , these Lithuanian-French genes are OK….EH ?

Cool one out there , goes right through you! But happy days ahead, and sun is now setting at almost 7 pm, would be thinking about golfing soon if I was richer & healthier But damn was December-now maybe the most unrelenting stretch of bone chilling , humid cold I've lived through , no breaks , but +17C should thaw out the backyard this weekend

Yup, pretty much sums up my life since 2020….F—k me how is this possible ?

Need 2 goals total in the Madrid game, thought there was a mistake on my screen….Gallagher scored 27 seconds in….

If I am not mistaken, these were endorsed by Raquel Welch when I was a teenager So if @Pumpuynarak is on the fence, if for no other reason…..
