Personal Goals

[hobbes]

What are you working on?

I am trying to lose weight. As we age, fat insidiously creeps upon our bodies, and can only be starkly appreciated when we visit friends we have not seen in some time. They say, "What happened too you" or "you are putting on serious weight".

These things are invisible you your co-workers as the day to day changes are imperceptible.

My goal is to weight less then 200 pounds. My heightest weight (nude) was 221. I am posting for your encouragement and because friends I have here are also trying to achieve personal goals. We can make this our support thread.

Just tonight, I ran into an old girlfriend, who exclaimed, "My you look like your face is all pudgy".

So, post your project and we can all work through our projects together.

I want to point out that I refuse to eat salad and drink diet beverages, my efforts are via exercise and cutting back on alcohol. Wish me luck!

Ah, to be a child again.

On the upside, my future is decided. I have a career, I have some security, I just need to work on my health.

When I was young, my body-fat was 9%, something happened along the way. It will happen to you too!

uh oh - i&#39;m 28 and i play video games 4 several hours, is that bad?

i also have a career and make really good money 4 where i live.

i know what ur sayin bout fat - it&#39;s friggin easy 2 put on but hard 2 put off. i lift weights and hit my heavy bag bout 4 times a week. do that and u&#39;ll stay fit - ;) i stopped doing that 4 bout 3 months cuz i was so busy, lost everything i worked 4 and almost had 2 start from scratch. it&#39;s bogus&#33;

[hobbes]

Kurt,

Play video games as often as you can, that is not bad.

Just don&#39;t consider playing a new game, a life goal.

This thread is about growing older and realizing that the health and the physical appearances we take for granted is not forever.

Playing games is not a birthright or a goal, but a priviledge

i am learning this&#33; it&#39;s really strange, when i look in the mirror - i c the same person i saw when i was 18 - but no one else does. i c people on tv and i think, they&#39;ve got 2 b older than me - then i find out they&#39;re like 23 er something&#33; it&#39;s weird.

i just don&#39;t like 2 think bout gettin old er turnin 30, but thanx fer the reminder&#33; :D

[noname12]

I&#39;m 19 so currently I am arrogant, able and not worried about my health.

Personal goals currently only involve world domination. I give it until I am 50 then maybe I wll begin to worry about health and so on.

Personal goals currently only involve world domination. I give it until I am 50 then maybe I wll begin to worry about health and so on.

I dominated the world between the ages of 16 and 29.

As an old hand at the game, take my word for it-as a goal, fine-as a way of life? Forget it, you run yourself ragged.

I ruined myself not getting out sooner.

I have, however, retained my incredible arrogance.

It comforts me in the face of those whose "goal" is unremitting and unrelenting stupidity and ignorance.

Shoot for that, guys.

If you want to dominate the world, go ahead-just do it and be done with it, then move on. ;)

[noname12]

Once I get this world I shall never let go, unfortunatly I must warn you petty mortals that when I do become the Supreme Commander of the Earth as well as Communist Russia, I will most likely make you all my slaves... Prepare your selves or I shall have you tickled to death.


That is the end of this public service announcment.

From another old-pro:

Brandy is the drink. Not bourbon. You can&#39;t discuss plans over bourbon as you can brandy.

Perhaps resurrecting the Communist International would be the way to go. It almost worked once.

On a more serious note, my current personal goal is, I suppose, to become employed. Again. Unfortunately there is jack-all where I live.

I think that you&#39;ve pointed out a important distinction here, MN.

Brandy ( or cognac) is the drink of choice when formulating plans.

Bourbon gets you ripped enough to actually implement them.

Good luck achieving your personal goal,btw.

@hobbes,
I always considered you "big boned" or "pleasantly plump", not fat. If you lived in Michigan or Wisconsin you would be thought of as "emaciated". Perhaps instead of changing your lifestyle you could simply alter your location.

[MUSLEMAN]

hobbes as you try to lose weight please make sure you do so in a healthy mannor, if you want i can help a bit with some pointers, and remmeber its not how much you weight its how much body fat vs muscle you have,

my personall goals are growing the business( also open another company to pay darker for all the post i do here when i&#39;m at work and home :lol: )

finding a person smart enough to start a familly

ultimate goal in life: to be a good father and produce one or 2 decent humans, for this planet( this is more important to me then anything else on this planet, business, money, house, car, etc.)

i will do it http://smilies.sofrayt.com/%5E/w/thumbs.gif

Yes, an important distinction indeed; I should have restrained my wont to be a "man of action" so as to properly order the list of requisite potables:

Brandy/Cognac: A spirit distilled especially with battle-planning in mind.

Bourbon: A loin-girding spirit universally accepted as critical immediately pre-fracas.

Scotch: One cannot wind down from battle properly without the spirit which spurs contemplation of an unpleasant job well-done. Foments smugness-very important in the enjoyment of having spilt blood in service of a worthy cause.

Jerry Lewis drinks it after every telethon.

Any further additions/refinements, gentlemen? :)

[Mr. Mulder]

Eat more sensibly, drink less, travel more and try to put more effort into work/education ...the usual

[noname12]

Communism in theory works, but in practice the people are to lazy, so I shall go with a lesser communism, good old socialism, when I have the people accepting it I shall slowly introduce communism back to Russia, then I shall send a nice letter to bush formaly declaring war and giving him 24hrs to have plastic surgery and stop looking like a monkey.

Once bush changes his face, I will put it my own bush clone who will then introduce Communism to America with promise of Wealth and glory, once I have achieved this goal England will soon follow america&#39;s foot steps therefore allowing me to easely influence Europe. Once I have gained these areas, I will go to the middle east which already supports Socialism and as my official Banner shall be socialism they shall ally them selves with me.

Then I will forcefully take Israel putting in an Communist Ariel Sharonovich. From there I will influence Egypt, Libia, Nigeria, Morroco, Tunisia, Sudan and ehtiopia therefore giving me much of africa. After forcefully taking the rest of Africa I will take South africa which shouldnt be to hard.

Once finished I will invade Asia from these fronts, east, north east, north west, west, moving swiftly down china, taking any province next to it, then launching my Marines at Japan. My eastern and North eastern troops will move through pakistan, India and finally meeting my western troops in china which will then invade the south taking malaysiam philipines and then australia.

After all that I shall officially reign and then kill you all.


Your Loyal Leader.

Thank you.
