Need a Male Opinion

Hehe...SIZZLELEAN. Wasn't that an American food product? What was that anyway?

  wow - flashback time ..  !

  I can still remember the package Sizzlelean came in ..    It was one of the first "low-fat" bacons to come out on the market   IIC, it was made, at least in part, from beef or turkey or some such ..   The strips were a lot thinner that regular bacon and had that look like they were made out of SPAM (i.e. little chips of meat byproducts, flattened out and squashed together).  The taste wasn't bad at all, IMHO, but I think what doom-ed it was that it was TOO lean ..  I remember when I went to cook it sometimes the pieces would burn/char so easily, esp. in the microwave (phewww-ie - what a horrible smell!).   About the only way to avoid it in the pan sometimes, sadly, was to dump some cooking oil in with it, which I guess defeated the whole purpose of being "lean" ..   In sum, good idea in concept, but not really practicable ..

Dave,

For the last time:  If you're going to show off, at least put a few Japanese Hotties in the pics.

Guy

Yeah, I should but all you have to do is search Japanese and those pics will be at the top of the search results. I guess they're really a hot item.

 Speaking of which, I saw a show on cable a couple of nights ago (I think it was Learning Channel or Discovery) about "the Geisha" ..  I thought it was going to be one of those old historical shows, but was surprised to find out that part of it was about the modern-day Geishas and what they go through to become them still ..  I was stunned to learn that Geishas still existed, b/c some of their "training " (like binding up their feet) seems kinda cruel today by "human rights" standards .. I'm surprised that there hasn't been some kind of anti-sexist uprising to abolish them ...  (NotDave?)

So when you changing your name to Tripod?

That's BI-pod, mind you! only two appendages on the wood! of course, since my toes are on the ceiling maybe you could call me POLE-lamp!   [The bi has nothing to do with my sexuality which is the type that can be plugged in from the front! Not that there's anything wrong with those bif-olk(als?)  - of course.]

Hey Dave,
Long time, no hear.  You look great man.  I've been working out with with personal trainer 3X a week for a year now - then the gym on my own 2-3 times, similar workout that you do, PX-90, kettlebells, pull ups, lots of core stuff. Hanging steady @ 170, and ripped.  But just can't get rid of that small amount of skin left over from the 260 days!!  Did you have any plastic surgery to take that small layer off?  I'm thinking about it, There is just enough to **** me off and hide the 4 pak that I've worked so have to achieve.  Legs, back arms are ripped, just that small layer of skin I can't seem to tighten up.  Happy Thanksgiving man, hope all is well.

 Rick,

Great to hear from you. It's been a long time. I'm glad to hear you're doing all of that. Finding a way to enjoy intense physical activity, be it through variety, workout partners, helping others or whatever is truly the best way to keep going. Oh there will always be some skin left. My biggest concern is the skin on my face. I can't seem to do anything to build the facial muscles back up! Aside from that most of the loose skin is at or below the level of naval and my wife could care less. You know women, once they're sold on you, many don't much care what kind of body you have, much less if you have a little loose skin.

Keep the Faith,

Dave

 I would love to join a Yoga group or something near where I live but I don't know how to go about it. I suppose I'll have to look at my school (we have Yoga classes and such not) thanks, though. I was just joking about bottling it of course haha you're doing great and you look fantastic and I want to look like that very very soon! Happy Holidays!
