12 pound turkey challenge

[SkinBasket]

Do you drink the bottle of Cab by yourself or does your spouse help you?

She doesn't like wine. Unfortunately I am left to drink those bottles by myself. I used to think a bottle a night might be too much, but it works out quite nicely considering how much food I eat and it's not like I'm still drunk the next morning.

I am in a similar boat: a wife who doesn't appreciate the pleasures of wine, and kids who are at least a decade away from where you would even consider putting a wine glass at their plate. But at least that way there are no arguments about what wine to buy.

I usually end up drinking a little less than half the bottle and saving the rest for the next day. Anything more than that and it's very hard to do anything useful after getting the kids off to bed. Of course, after all the bedtime battles are finally over the thing that really calls out to me is that other half bottle of wine.

My bête noire.

weight: 202.2
exercise: jiu jitsu.

breakfast: steak/tomato/cheddar salad with water and zantrex
lunch: carnation instant breakfast
dinner: chicken fried rice, potato chips, candy, red wine, and zantrex.

I lost over 4 pounds today. I actually weighed 206.6 yesterday, but was afraid to tell you all because I knew you would be disappointed. I need to find a way to heal these elbows while staying active. I'm considering healing one then the other and doing jiu jitsu one armed.

I could give a fuck about your weight or diet....just keep posting pictures like that.

I have a jug of NO Xplode, a neoprene arm sleeve, and a bottle of some OxyElite Pro something or other. Obviously all the ingredients to lose weight.

I had to stop taking the Zantrex because I was having muscle spams all night long. It wasn't a problem for me because I was asleep, but apparently I accidentally punched my wife a couple times during my seizures. It also didn't seem to have any other positive effects than the automated nocturnal exercises.

Weight: 202.5
exercise: I took two scoops of NO Xplode and sat in a chair. I was going to exercise, but didn't feel like it. But I also haven't eaten anything today, so I guess it's a wash so far.

I guess I should change the name of this thread to some other unattainable goal.

You should have seen the original version of this thread that Partial started. It really was one of Packerrats greatest hits: comedy, drama, angst, injuries, threats of physical violence. Those were the days...

Hey admin dood. Now that Partials gone and twoseven is here to administer informed physical fitness opinions, how about we bring that original thread back to the GC? I could read that, the pregnancy thread, and the thread about nutz being banned a hundred times without getting bored. We lost a lot of valuable information in that thread. Maybe not as much as that one we had in FYI with the reading list, but then again the value of information is abjectly subjective, no?

Better yet, you could merge this one onto the old one! I would pay you one dollar for your efforts. And a 50% bonus if you complete the task by May 1st, when I return from Vegas and begin my conversion into a sleek, muscle bound sex machine. I would gladly accept having my very interesting blog about maybe losing weight moved to the GC in exchange for the return of the lost tombs of knowledge that were lost.

bringing back any of the educational beatdown i got from Partial might just be enough to get me to kill again. borrow some of your NO Explode shit and it's a guarantee.

Hell, that stuff is all still there in the GC somewhere. You want the link?

ps: how much xplode do you need? It's kind of nice. Gets the blood moving a bit. Gives me a boner.

Should I take a thermogenic pill in conjunction with Xplode or will I blow up?

Why? you don't think you can lose 12 lbs. by Thanksgiving? I think that's ultimately doable and think how good you'll feel when you blow it out of the water.

i'm not a fan of adding more and more stimulants to make the heart beat fast to burn more calories, though it does work and many people do it. too much dependancy that leads to other issues.

also, as much fun as it was the first go round with me answering questions in regards to health and fitness before wonder boy made it hell for me, i'm going to take a pass on it this go round. what i can offer is a 28 page pdf i have put together that answers mosts non-habit (bad habits, that is) forming questions about this stuff. i'll email it if people pm their addys. i don't mind helping you out skin, some others here too. but there is still a shortlist of real fuckheads that crusie this place that i would rather see fall from a cliff than give even one ounce of help to. hope you can understand.

weight: 201.6
exercise: stacking a load of firewood and punching myself in the balls repeatedly after the Packer game.

breakfast: tuna salad sandwich with spinach and provolone and green tea
lunch: microwave ziti, buttered bread, trail mix, and more green tea
Diner: homemade general tso chicken with brown rice, potato chips, a beef stick, and a bottle of pinot grigio.

I figure I could lose a couple of pounds by shaving my chest, but the hairless look makes me look fatter. Decisions. Decisions.

Backup Skin. How do you do your sauce? I've tried Tso's at home a bunch of times but have never achieved anything worth making again.
