"Yes it's true, a real man can endure the elements." I said. Then I added, "But only an idiot does it needlessly."
So it is with the quit. A real man can bear that burden alone.
But only an idiot would do it needlessly.

Know what makes my day?
When a young father comes along. He's got a little girl he wants to be there for. He's got a little boy he wants to watch become a man. And he's made a decision that they are more important than the can.
I've heard it said that urgent things are seldom important while important things are seldom urgent.
Well that craving you feel for that next pinch is an urgent thing.
Watching your children grow up, well, I think you'll agree with me that that's important.
Yeah, if you came on in outa the cold and posted by the fire where all the quitters stand round and support each other, that'd make my day.

Athan, isnt your f250 like fords version of a tundra?

geared low, stiffer suspension, no added hp. Just an f150 purpose built to tow?

Atleast thats the ones I have seen, there arent too many down here.

Chris,

How do you like that 6.7?
Mines the crew cab with the suicide doors. 4x4 with a fifth wheel towing package. The only thing I don't like about it is the gas mileage - about 12-13mpg.
LOL my dad has the same exact truck, except his is that gold beige that was really popular with ford in the late 90's early 2000's.

The turning radius and the mpg's are rough. The suspension is friggin destructive. We used to have 6 miles of washboards we had to drive through to get to the old hunting club and that thing would throw us fucking everywhere. Drove my new dodge over them and it handles them sooo much better.

I have never had good luck with turning radius with ford in general though, my 1500 can make turns with ease my old ranger struggled to do in a 3 point.
That truck is purpose built to tow so yeah the suspension is like a lumber wagon

Didnt fuck up my quit of tobacco today so far, but did fuck up my keto diet with a cherry coke. wifes gonna be pissed lol
How's the keto working out for you? I did Paleo and IF and it worked out great wasn't sure if I wanted to do keto or just bring back paleo. Problem is taking away fruits and veggies from me would be almost worse than dropping nic. Like I'm a fruit addict. I gotta grow my own shit or buy from someone I knew grows it personally instead of getting it from Mexico...but still that'd be soo tough to cut out.
keto is just cutting out all the sugar or anything that turns into sugar in your body. I like it because I like meat, dont get me wrong I love fruit but its not that hrd to cut out. and I miss bread. I did paleo for a year, lost a little bit of weight. Keto is a lot better for you than paleo IMO.
Okay, I need help in this area. I love bread, I like meat, I not too fond of fruits and veggies. IÂ’ll eat them but begrudgingly. I put on like 20 pounds since I quit and I already needed to loose 100 pounds.

nights a week and it is not helping.

Any suggestions?
Yeah, I heard you like meat!
Maybe you should grow taller mountain man (didn't work for me)
meat and fat sir, eat leafy greens a little every day , no fruit,no bread, no carbs, no sugars
It might be hard to get rid of bread, the paleo diet mixed with Intermittent fasting helped me lose about 110 lbs before my wedding in 8 months...and then I quit chewing after my wedding and put on weight, and then I caved and then I kept putting on weight because I'd already gotten used to eating badly and drinking again...and so far during this quit I've put on about 10 more. I wanna try the keto diet this time around personally but I don't think I'm strong enough to give up fruits and veggies. Maybe if I only got mine from safeway or something but home grown fruits and veggies are the most delicious thing in the world.
On keto you have to eat veggies, just no fruits. Also believe it or not but the frozen veggies from the store are better for you than fresh from the store. The caveat to that is if you can grow your own veggies they are the best for you.

Side note, if you haven't tried cryotherapy you need to, it makes you feel awesome
I've been hearing about that. I wanna do it soon, I know my cold showers make me feel great so I could only imagine how that feels. I think I'm gonna go to my local cryotherapy place when I eventually get a free day lol
-220 f for 2 minutes makes everything feel better
I could just cut a hole in the ice and jump in the lake. Same thing, right?
Yeah same thing , try it and let us know how it goes! i'll watch the news sites for the headline "Cheap alaskan jumps in freezing water, dies"
It is already a thing here. It's called the "Polar Plunge" People do it all the time. Me?, Hell to the Fuckin No Way.
Just do the cryo dude. if it was cost effective enough to do every day I could kick my caffeine addiction too
Totally gonna do it once I'm outta credit card debt lol. my wife would kill me if I spent 55$ for 2 minutes. I am gonna do an ice bath though.
What do you boys do about shrinkage?
Cry a little bit. lol. Deffinitely tough to wank it during a cold shower...but very possible...it just might no be the most impressive. Ice bath its been awhile I think you just become an inny for a little while. cryo I'm just hoping it doesn't go away completely. Suddenly I'm changing my name to catelyn and the rest of the world is in love with me because of my internal strength. Then I'll get named woman of the year and win a nobel peace prize...
I noticed immediately after I could cross my legs in a chair a little bit better lol

Yeah same thing , try it and let us know how it goes! i'll watch the news sites for the headline "Cheap alaskan jumps in freezing water, dies"
It is already a thing here. It's called the "Polar Plunge" People do it all the time. Me?, Hell to the Fuckin No Way.
Just do the cryo dude. if it was cost effective enough to do every day I could kick my caffeine addiction too

Athan, isnt your f250 like fords version of a tundra?

geared low, stiffer suspension, no added hp. Just an f150 purpose built to tow?

Atleast thats the ones I have seen, there arent too many down here.

Chris,

How do you like that 6.7?
Mines the crew cab with the suicide doors. 4x4 with a fifth wheel towing package. The only thing I don't like about it is the gas mileage - about 12-13mpg.
LOL my dad has the same exact truck, except his is that gold beige that was really popular with ford in the late 90's early 2000's.

The turning radius and the mpg's are rough. The suspension is friggin destructive. We used to have 6 miles of washboards we had to drive through to get to the old hunting club and that thing would throw us fucking everywhere. Drove my new dodge over them and it handles them sooo much better.

I have never had good luck with turning radius with ford in general though, my 1500 can make turns with ease my old ranger struggled to do in a 3 point.
That truck is purpose built to tow so yeah the suspension is like a lumber wagon

Didnt fuck up my quit of tobacco today so far, but did fuck up my keto diet with a cherry coke. wifes gonna be pissed lol
How's the keto working out for you? I did Paleo and IF and it worked out great wasn't sure if I wanted to do keto or just bring back paleo. Problem is taking away fruits and veggies from me would be almost worse than dropping nic. Like I'm a fruit addict. I gotta grow my own shit or buy from someone I knew grows it personally instead of getting it from Mexico...but still that'd be soo tough to cut out.
keto is just cutting out all the sugar or anything that turns into sugar in your body. I like it because I like meat, dont get me wrong I love fruit but its not that hrd to cut out. and I miss bread. I did paleo for a year, lost a little bit of weight. Keto is a lot better for you than paleo IMO.
Okay, I need help in this area. I love bread, I like meat, I not too fond of fruits and veggies. IÂ’ll eat them but begrudgingly. I put on like 20 pounds since I quit and I already needed to loose 100 pounds.

nights a week and it is not helping.

Any suggestions?
Yeah, I heard you like meat!
Maybe you should grow taller mountain man (didn't work for me)
meat and fat sir, eat leafy greens a little every day , no fruit,no bread, no carbs, no sugars
It might be hard to get rid of bread, the paleo diet mixed with Intermittent fasting helped me lose about 110 lbs before my wedding in 8 months...and then I quit chewing after my wedding and put on weight, and then I caved and then I kept putting on weight because I'd already gotten used to eating badly and drinking again...and so far during this quit I've put on about 10 more. I wanna try the keto diet this time around personally but I don't think I'm strong enough to give up fruits and veggies. Maybe if I only got mine from safeway or something but home grown fruits and veggies are the most delicious thing in the world.
On keto you have to eat veggies, just no fruits. Also believe it or not but the frozen veggies from the store are better for you than fresh from the store. The caveat to that is if you can grow your own veggies they are the best for you.

Side note, if you haven't tried cryotherapy you need to, it makes you feel awesome
I've been hearing about that. I wanna do it soon, I know my cold showers make me feel great so I could only imagine how that feels. I think I'm gonna go to my local cryotherapy place when I eventually get a free day lol

I have never had good luck with turning radius with ford in general though, my 1500 can make turns with ease my old ranger struggled to do in a 3 point.
That truck is purpose built to tow so yeah the suspension is like a lumber wagon

Didnt fuck up my quit of tobacco today so far, but did fuck up my keto diet with a cherry coke. wifes gonna be pissed lol
How's the keto working out for you? I did Paleo and IF and it worked out great wasn't sure if I wanted to do keto or just bring back paleo. Problem is taking away fruits and veggies from me would be almost worse than dropping nic. Like I'm a fruit addict. I gotta grow my own shit or buy from someone I knew grows it personally instead of getting it from Mexico...but still that'd be soo tough to cut out.
keto is just cutting out all the sugar or anything that turns into sugar in your body. I like it because I like meat, dont get me wrong I love fruit but its not that hrd to cut out. and I miss bread. I did paleo for a year, lost a little bit of weight. Keto is a lot better for you than paleo IMO.
Okay, I need help in this area. I love bread, I like meat, I not too fond of fruits and veggies. IÂ’ll eat them but begrudgingly. I put on like 20 pounds since I quit and I already needed to loose 100 pounds.

nights a week and it is not helping.

Any suggestions?
Yeah, I heard you like meat!
Maybe you should grow taller mountain man (didn't work for me)
meat and fat sir, eat leafy greens a little every day , no fruit,no bread, no carbs, no sugars
It might be hard to get rid of bread, the paleo diet mixed with Intermittent fasting helped me lose about 110 lbs before my wedding in 8 months...and then I quit chewing after my wedding and put on weight, and then I caved and then I kept putting on weight because I'd already gotten used to eating badly and drinking again...and so far during this quit I've put on about 10 more. I wanna try the keto diet this time around personally but I don't think I'm strong enough to give up fruits and veggies. Maybe if I only got mine from safeway or something but home grown fruits and veggies are the most delicious thing in the world.
On keto you have to eat veggies, just no fruits. Also believe it or not but the frozen veggies from the store are better for you than fresh from the store. The caveat to that is if you can grow your own veggies they are the best for you.

Side note, if you haven't tried cryotherapy you need to, it makes you feel awesome
I've been hearing about that. I wanna do it soon, I know my cold showers make me feel great so I could only imagine how that feels. I think I'm gonna go to my local cryotherapy place when I eventually get a free day lol
