Hope it was just gas cramps. Gotta get that pressure down and maybe drop a few. It worked for me. Be well Fuzz.

Fuzz,

When I stopped drinking 10 years ago I lost a lot of weight.
If you can eliminate 4000 calories a day things happen !
Good luck.

Fuzzy, I'm right there with you. I started taking BP medicine and I despise taking pills. I've got to get into shape. I kicked the smoking habit almost 5 months ago, but now I have to quit eating and start exercising. I've been on so many diets over the years that I finally realized they don't work. You have to change your eating habits to include all of the right foods and not go back for 2nds and 3rds. I think if you can do that and just walk for 1/2 hour a day, things will get better (and lighter  ;) ). Easier said than done, I know, but we have to do it.

Also, how's your sleep? I snore and can't sleep on my back or I'll stop breathing (sleep apnea). At the request of my doctor I had a sleep study done and found that i wake up many times during the night, even though I didn't realize it, and also move around a lot. All of this contributes to stress on your heart as it never gets to relax and heal itself. I have to use a CPAP machine now when I sleep but i'm told that when I lose the weight I might be able to quit that thing. It's a pain in the a$$ at first but you do get used to it and I really do sleep better with it now. Anyway, you might look into the sleep thing because they're finding many physical problems that can be related to a lack of sleep, and this is your life we're talking about!

Feel better and keep us posted!

Hang in there Fuzzy, I don't want you foing the way of your old horse..............  :'(

I need to lose a lot of weight too, but don't want to give up drinking, I just discovered Makers Mark, and it'll be a cold day in hell before I give that stuff away!

I did give up smoking 3.5 years ago and quickly put on 20 pounds, maybe I should take 'em up again? Hell, the cough's almost gone, and I miss that warm fuzzy feeling in my lungs when I wake up each morning...................  ;D
I was feeling sorry for myself because I couldn't afford new bike boots, until I met a man with no legs.

So I said, "Hey mate, you haven't got any bike boots you don't need, do you?"

Yeah, but a tattoo needle barely breaks the skin mate, it doesn't break thru the skin, fat, muscle, scraping bone and nicking arteries as it bounces from one nerve to another sending painful messages into the pain receptors in your brain that make you start sweating like a pig and screaming like a little girl............ er, needles are good! Sorry..........  ;D

       Man fuzzy, I just realized that you were in the hospital and already out! :o Thank God that you are out and now to get yourself started to get into shape. ;) Sure am glad that you have the opportunity to do something about your condition. It takes an effort and willpower to do it, but you're a SOHC4er and WE can do ANYTHING, right? ??? ;)  Live Well & Live Long, My Friend! :)

                                 Later on, Bill :) ;)


        BTW, if you EVER need encouragement, you've got a whole host of backup and a number of them have been there (like they said). ;)

Good luck to you my man,  I am in the same boat.  weight gain is a vicious cycle and a tough one to reverse.
As far as the makers mark references, I drive within a few miles of the distillery every morning on my morning commute.  One of these days I'm going to go on the tour all pissed on the stuff, bourbon and whiskeys make me a little "punchy"

Well not wanting to see you to get in trouble Mr B, instead of going into Bill Samuels house of worship swinging your fists, how's about you just pick up a couple of gallons of the stuff and send it to me? And Bobby, it's not cold at all here, but any weather is good for sipping MM, so I'm tipping one back at you too mate, Cheers! ;D

Ooh, and not wanting to hijack Fuzzy's thread, get well mate, drink lots of water and go for a walk each morning before breakfast, (I get up at 5 am and walk 3 miles every morning, no bullshiite) and the weight will fall off you! All the best! Cheers, Terry. ;D

FZ, start slow and know the diets come and go but the only constant is exercise. I have a ton (truly) of friends in the medical community who have told me the diet is important, the exercise is very important. Start slow, start small, but go for every day. You will get there.  :)

No but it is cold here, and a nice oak fire and some good sippin whiskey is a very mellow experience.
