I'm bacccccckkkkkkk!!

Hey guys - finally got to get back to some postin' here on the Board.
Hope everyone has been doing well.

We had a great time in Gulf Shores, even though it was quite chilly a couple of the days we were there.  The high temp only got to around 64 with a stiff NW wind which made it a lot colder feeling, especially when we were riding the motorcycle. Still, a bad day at the beach still beats a good day at work anytime!! 

Had some absolutely fantastic grilled shrimp, grilled fish and crab claws.  I did pretty well with the eating - had a protein shake each day for breakfast, downed a protein shot mid-day, and then ate out for dinner each  evening.  NO WEIGHT GAIN! In fact I lost 1 1/2 pounds during the 7 days of vacation.  Was pretty proud of myself for that one.

Anyways, glad to be back here with you fellas.

Glad to have you back. You were MISSED!

Glad to see you back in "the hood".

Glad to have you back.  At our age, having anything stiff, even if it is the wind, is a good thing ;-).

Lou

BwaHahahahahaha!!   Ain't that the truth Lou!!!

What the hell.  I never assumed you were gone, I just thought you were off sewing your wild oates like I have been.  I am finding that the farther out I get, the harder it is to post more often.  What does that mean or say about me?  I do find myself feeling guilty about not posting as often.  I can only hope to improve in this area, but hell, it is hard to do when you are out having fun in the real world.

Good to speak with you again my friend.  Congrats on the continued weightloss.  I am staying right at about 220.  I think with my workouts and all, I have found my sweet spot as they say.  I really wanted to get to 200-210, but just don't see it.  I am having plastic surgery and that will probably cut out another 8-10 pounds per the surgeon, so hopefully I will hit the 210 mark.

Be good Bama, Taz

Thanks Taz. Glad to hear from ya again buddy.  You do need to find more time to join us - you are a great inspiration for sure.  Glad all is well with you and you are enjoying the "new" you.  Keep on keepin' on brother!!

Welcome back. Riding on the beach sounds like fun. It is in the 40's here and to me colder than hell.

 wow man that was 5 c's and 6 k's over the limit on that word! Good to see you're back and relaxed, nothing like a good ******or vacation, whichever...to get you back in the swing of things.

Great to have you back posting away Bama, especially since the Tide moved up to numero uno in the polls while you were on vacation. Maybe you should take off more often, huh?  

Huge game for the Tide this week but I smell a trap down there in Louisiana. The Tigers are down this year but they are still loaded with talent and, as you know, Death Valley on a Saturday night ain't a pretty place to be as a visiting team. I'm really looking forward to watching the game. 

Also, great job on the eating front during your vacation. Down a pound after a week on the road is AWESOME, man! 

Boner
