Nope! 154 lbs of lean, mean, fighting machine!

<laughing> Good thing my wife didn't see that. She might have choked on her own tongue.

Just found it interesting about the sort of patches it came up with, apart from the embroidery (one for Mr Frag?) it was diet patches, no mention of nicotine patches or are they out of fashion now?

I quit exercising for about a year after my Reserve commitment ended. Got fat and happy, felt like crap, and am working it off again.

Witp hasn't helped my exercise regimen this summer, but i find myself much sharper after weightlifting or staircliming and a good cigar[8D]. I could lose a good 20 lbs. myself and get down to my playing weight of 275 lbs(6'7")., on the other hand @42 with wife and kids maybe i should consider myself lucky[;)]. I was always rather fond of a cheese sandwhich[:D].
