Pretty good workout. I have to watch throwing the shot. In March I complete ripped out my forearm. It was black and blue and bruised up for 2 months and I couldn't bend my wrist, let alone throw. Kept me out of my first 2 meets this year.
I'm heading to the high school to throw tomorrow morning. I have to get used to throwing from a ring. First meet for me is next Saturday in Pa.

Hey Dude! I knew you'd come back home.
Good to hear from you Mike.
Sure looks like you've been doing good. Weights are going up.
I would say hi to Val, but she's my ex now and kind of hostile toward me for some reason. She just announced her new wedding plans this week btw. She waited a whole week after our divorce was final.
I have to say, it's actually nice to be able to workout and not have someone make you feel guilty about it.
Glad you're back, let's get this board hopping again like the old days.
Earl
Thanks Mike.
I haven't lost any either. I can see changes but scales go up and down all the time. I think I can drop another 30 or 40 pounds but I'm a stress eater. Lord knows I've been stressing lately. Where's my cookie? Working out is my saving grace. If I didn't workout all the time I'd weigh 400 again.
Glad you're having fun. I've had my share too. The OH Conventtion in Pittsburgh was a blast. Here's a link to some pictures...see if you can spot me in the crowd.

Yeah, I have to watch the junk. I can eat sweets easily. I still have issues eating fat and bread so fast food is still out for me, thank god.
Yeah, that's Caroline. She's lives near Philly Pa now. Did you see her plastic surgery pics. Man! We had a ball. I think we scared some of the little old ladies that go to those things. It got a little out of hand before it was over.
Yeah, I think she finally put a password on some of them. She's sure not shy. Gotta love it. She has an exercise forum on Myspace I post to.
