Title: Hey gang
Post by: Fatman on 03/24/18 14:19 UTC
Hey Gang I know I haven’t been around in a long time.  Nothing with fishing just working on getting healthy again.  I’ve gone from 406 lbs. to 247.5 lbs., 158.5 lbs. gone!!  I also quit smoking back in July and just over 8 months now.  My back still isn’t 100% but it’s way better than it was!!  Still got more to go!!

That's super! Loosing weight and keeping it off is the hardest thing to do! Congradulations.

That’s great news! Always a good thing to hear of people losing that much weight and quitting smoking.


 As far as your back give some thought to quality CBD oil tha has no THC. They have been great for me and my sister both and our back arthritis. I started on CBD oil in January and went from contemplating filing for disability to feeling like I’m 21 again. I still have a little stiffness and soreness but I’m much better off I have even been taken off of 3 of the 4 prescriptions for my back I was on. My sister who is 19 years older than me texted me the other day and said she jogged up 2 flights of stairs at work that day. She said she hasn’t done that in over a decade. She started on the oils shortly after I did. I know it’s a little controversial but in some areas but they have done us well.

Three cheers for the Thinman.

I was also thinking this should be the new avatar/username... (of course there are many others that could be fabricated as well, especially if BKJ chimes in)... regardless of name, congrats on your accomplishment!

Heck I’m still new to the memebers here but hearing this makes me smile and know why I enjoy the company I’m in here. Great positive attitudes and people who care! Congrats on the weight loss and the path to a healthy future. Great job this is inspiring as I myself am a big man.

Hey, Doug, it's been a while.  Starting today, I'll be one of the guys up in the bleachers rooting you on.  Why don't you nail a pair of those 406 pound Levi's on a door (OK, a barn door) with a pair of 247 pound Levi's next to them.  Great inspiration.

After revisiting this post I am in awe of the amount of weight you lost while quitting smoking at the same time. That defies all weight losing logic. You Sir are inspiring!
