So instead of taking medicine with nasty side effects to fix the problem for you, get off your butt and do some cardio. This is the problem with America today--no one wants to work for anything, it should all be done for us.



Blame it on age, blame it on what you like, but you know that they're all excuses for laziness.



I was working out regularly for 6 weeks and dropped 10 pounds...when it fit into my schedule. But now work is kicking my arse. Put plainly, I am working too hard and too much to work out (or lurk on this site much for that matter). So that whole "no one wants to work for anything" line seems like crap. I know a lot of very well off people who are now at a place in their life for two hour a day workouts, with personal trainers, etc...but I'm still working to get there.



I wish I had the time to work out an hour a day...but lately I haven't Yeah, yeah, I know...if it were important I would make the time...but to me, right now, my health is taking a back seat to providing for my family. I bet I am not alone. Yeah, I know, they need a healthy dad more than more money...but right now I'm doing the best I can.



I am going to exercise today, though, if it kills me. :eek:

I am willing to bet that me at my 360 and 5'9 inches tall with my last physical test ( 6 months ago) that I have better results then most...



Col = 142

Sugar 91

bp 120 over 85

Breathing, EKG, stress test all off the charts....



Weight and BMI isn't everything.

6'1", 175 lb.

Col = 160

Sugar = 120

BP was 140 over 110



History of diabetes and heart disease on my mother's side. I have doctor's orders to watch the sugar and carbs or I'll be diabetic in 5 years. I had low blood pressure all my life until I opened a second office of my company. :rolleyes: Or it's a combination of that and age. I take a mild BP medication every day now, so it's almost back to normal. Getting old sucks.

JennD - your absolutely right. I don't care how one looks. But, if they are overweight and are crying about it but still eat crap 5 days a week, then I don't want to here it.



Otherwise, I choose to be in shape, eat right and spend too many hours in the gym. It's my stress relief.
 
With all the gab here, I thought I'd put this in a different light... why buy an x-cal, or zabtek maf, EE swaybar, or custom exhaust? To get improvemnts from something that is already working fine. Same with the meds. Yes, they were developed for folks with ED and that is the authorized treatment they are used for, but what does it do for a guy that already works just fine? I'd tell you but this is a family site :)



You may not need it, but then again, you don't need the x-cal (or EE swaybar) either ;) Maybe, you just want it.



 
Cruz, So the moral of the story is... If you upgrade your swaybar :cool:and take a little blue pill...:wub:



you will be able to hit all the curves you want in life...... :):D
 
ED medication is for "men" who have the "disease".....if you wanna build your tower taller, tv tells us to use the "male enhancement" products, not the "disease treating" ones.....



Nice line about curves ;)

The D in E.D. stands for dysfunction not disease.



I bet there are as many men taking E.D pills as an enhancer as those that take them out of necessity.



I've hear that Cialis (the "weekend pill" as it is called by many) is very popular with young men in Europe.

JohnnyO, I have the same worries as you. My mother had type 2 diabetes and that's what I have to watch out for. That's why I have to watch my weight. Weight is a HUGE factor when dealing with diseases like diabetes.
 
Any man who doesn't have pride in his own MANhood, the pride to work dilligently and ferverently to better it, is not a man at all.



So Kevin do work dilligently and ferverently to try and rub the wrinkles out of yours?
 
Hmmm? I'm not understanding that post, Travis. It's almost like it is supposed to be some sort of snide remark, but why would it be there?



If you're trying to attack my anti-"pill to cover laziness" position, then you would most likely be for it, in fact by boolean terms you must be for it, but I'm not a boolean fan so I'll give you the benefit of the doubt.



If you are pro-"pill to cover laziness", and you are attacking my position, then you have already attacked yourself, which really saves me some trouble.





Why the heck would I want to try and rub out wrinkles? Polishing and powerbuffing myself are two things that I don't take to--I'm no narcissist, and I don't have that kind of patience. Wrinkles should come as wear marks from stress, which will come if you try and inflate yourself higher than you can go, which is what the pill is effectively doing.....



The longer this conversation goes, the harder it is to find euphemisms and be vauge as so not to be explicit, which would elicit expletives.
 
I started this thread as a humorous rant but it seems to have kept good ole Kevin occupied (or is that fascinated ?) for the past couple of days. ;):D:lol::p
 
Thank you Tom for finding the humor that I thought was so blatantly there. Amazing how sarcasm and humor do not always translate well via the typed word (or is it that sometimes people only read what they want to read?)

Wow, part of a serious diatribe, Truly you have a dizzying intellect. so I believe this is much like -



Man in Black: Now, where is the poison? The battle of wits has begun. It ends when you decide and we both drink, and find out who is right, and who is dead.

Vizzini: But it's so simple! All I have to do is divine from what I know of you. Are you the sort of man who would put the poison into his own goblet, or his enemy's? Now, a clever man would put the poison into his own goblet, because he would know that only a great fool would reach for what he was given. I'm not a great fool, so I can clearly not choose the wine in front of you. But you must have known I was not a great fool; you would have counted on it, so I can clearly not choose the wine in front of me.

Man in Black: You've made your decision then?

Vizzini: Not remotely. Because iocane comes from Australia, as everyone knows. And Australia is entirely peopled with criminals. And criminals are used to having people not trust them, as you are not trusted by me. So I can clearly not choose the wine in front of you.

Man in Black: Truly you have a dizzying intellect.

Vizzini: Wait 'til I get going! [small pause] Where was I?

Man in Black: Australia.

Vizzini: Yes, Australia, and you must have suspected I would have known the powder's origin, so I can clearly not choose the wine in front of me.

Man in Black: You're just stalling now.

Vizzini: You'd like to think that, wouldn't you? You've beaten my giant, which means you're exceptionally strong. So, you could have put the poison in your own goblet, trusting on your strength to save you. So I can clearly not choose the wine in front of you. But, you've also bested my Spaniard which means you must have studied. And in studying, you must have learned that man is mortal so you would have put the poison as far from yourself as possible, so I can clearly not choose the wine in front of me.

Man in Black: You're trying to trick me into giving away something — it won't work.

Vizzini: It has worked! You've given everything away! I know where the poison is!

Man in Black: Then make your choice.

Vizzini: I will. And I choose... [points beyond Wesley's shoulder] *gasp!* What in the world can that be?

Man in Black: [Turns to look while Vizzini switches the goblets] What? Where? I don't see anything.

Vizzini: Oh, well, I-I could have sworn I saw something. No matter. [Chuckles]

Man in Black: What's so funny?

Vizzini: I'll tell you in a minute, but first, let's drink. Me from my glass, and you from yours.

[They drink, Vizzini continues to chuckle]

Man in Black: You guessed wrong.

Vizzini: You only think I guessed wrong, that's what's so funny! I switched glasses when your back was turned! Ha ha, you fool! You fell victim to one of the classic blunders! The most famous is "Never get involved in a land war in Asia." But only slightly less well known is this: "Never go in against a Sicilian when death is on the line!" Ah ha ha ha ha ha ha ha! Ah ha ha ha he ha ha! Ah ha ha ha-- [Suddenly goes stiff and falls over dead]







As far as pill/no pill - to each their own - I have learned you cannot change the world and if I could I would start with driving h
