Being able to say I weigh 220 would be so satisfying especially since he is 6'2 and weighs around 250-265......although his wife tells me he is fat because he just quit smoking and 'you always gain weight when you quit smoking'. | OK, this is obvious, Brian . . . your brother is jealous because you have accomplished something he hasn't even begun to wrap his mind around. Everything is looking good for your right now - you look good, you're healthy and strong, you've gained a nice bod, you've quit smoking, you are about to become a daddy. Perhaps he is resentful that he is not where you are.
Strip off that shirt, dance around the pool with your hot bod, and don't give a damn about his shitty attitude.  |

We have been very competitive or whole lives and this just upsets him. He was always the good looking popular one while I was the geeky, fat loser one.
He will never accept i look better than him.
Yes, I am competitive also, and kind of an ass, but I don't care.
He will be forced to acknowledge something. |

Rep Power: 24 | | So this week has been a real stressful one at work. Luckily I was never an emotional eater. I became fat simply because I love food- no other reason- but I was an emotional smoker. I know this is not a smokers forum but it is my diary dammit!
I am so proud of myself for not having a cigarette the last 3 days. It would have been real easy to buy a pack or bum one off of people but I did not. This has been my first real test to see if quitting stands up in the face of real stress and it has. I do not pat myself n the back often but I am for this.
I just wonder if the owners of my company are ever going to realize what I need to do my job. I am getting tires of hunting them down to get the information I need. It makes my job a living hell and only pisses them off in the end.
Eating has been great these last several days. I really think I am going to break this 225 barrier that I have been leaning against the last month. I have been enjoying exercise again- lost the joy for 5 weeks or so- and that helps. I am seeing some real gains in strength and am very pleased about that.
I am still holding off on squats of all types and running until I know my groin can handle it. I felt a twinge today on the elliptical so I took it down a notch to be safe.
Hanging in there. 90 and humid. Mal was right- now I am complaining how hot it is 3 weeks after complaining how cold it was..... |

Rep Power: 41 | | | Oh, sure. I was thinking that you go wearing the baggy shirt and then, "Hey, let's go in the pool." (insert brother's shocked expression. Camera click) Then it's tank top for the rest of the day just to rub his face in it. |

*calls wife over*
'Look at this sweetie, this guy has this damn fine idea. Yeah I know, "Trops" as a name is odd... Ok.'
The wife likes it Trops. I think we are going to try to give it a go with that idea.
Thanks man. |

Rep Power: 41 | | | "Trops" is an odd name and Trops is an odd person.
(My kids get a kick out of me having an odd name.) |

hotter than hell here today- 90 and humid as hell. Cool storms last night though... | On June 23rd it will be one year since I smoked. I weigh 50 pounds less today than I did 9 months ago....40 pounds less than I weighed when i quit smoking. (yes, I did put on 11 pounds when I quit...but it was the impetus I needed to make me take back control of my body)
Regarding the weather, I think you sent it to me. Hotter than hades, thunderstorms, tornadoes in the region and hotter than hades. |

I was scared as hell to gain anymore weight by quitting. Everything that has happened this year has all been a part of my goal to be the in the best shape i ever was in '08. I have actually stuck to 2 New Years Resolutions for over 5 months.... Quote:
