General Discussion - 2018

[thegreatwhitef250]

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

Excuses.
What are some of the ones that you use?
After this can, just dropped $5 on it and I'm not gonna throw that out (um, that was 500 cans ago)
After this weekend (um, that was 100 weekends ago and counting)
She's driving me crazy (um, that's what they do)
I work with idiots! (um, don't we all? and that can will magically make the world smarter? Really?)
I broke my leg (sorry about the leg, um, and the can has bone healing medicinal properties?)
I have so much extra cash I don't know what else to do with it (um, please call me I can help you out)
Chicks dig it! (no, not really and can we talk about that mullet while we're on the subject?)
What's it to you, I'm only hurting myself (not while we're on a quasi socialized medical system but that's another class)
The tobacco companies are counting on me (just copenhagen alone is over a BILLION dollars a year)
Statistics are in my favor that I won't get cancer/diabetes/stomach ulcers/extremity circulatory damage/etc. (statistics are meaningless to the ones that do, and their families)
I do it in secret, she doesn't know (and lying to your spouse has always been a good foundation for a marriage/relationship?)
The fact is, there are as many excuses as there are cans of tobacco. I'm sure you can add to the list ad nauseum.
Winners have results. Losers have excuses. Your choice. Your life.
Choose life.

It almost happened today.

I almost caved to the temptation to put that worm dirt in my lip.

It would have happened if it weren't for you guys and the idea that I would let my HOF team and everyone on this site down.

But it didnt happen, so thats a step in the right direction, i do however have a busted knuckle from my file cabinet. Its better than mouth cancer but is slightly uncomfortable.

Proud of you for staying quit
PISSED AT YOU FOR GOING IT ALONE!
Just sent you my digits

BTW - in addition to cancer, nicotine (from whatever delivery system) is also linked to diabetes. Not enough press on diabetes - it's a HORRIBLE disease to have.

WHY DIDN'T YOU CALL ME GREAT WHITE??????

YOU HAVE MY PHONE NUMBER!!!

I'm ecstatic that you did not cave. I would be more ecstatic if you would have reached out brother.

Don't make me come all the way down from the North to put a whoop ass beatin on you.

Sorry Brother,

split second reaction was to get dip, whole second reaction, punch filing cabinet. 3 seconds later forgot about dip to ice my hand.

its a hard deal to lean on others for me, i was raised on the mantra " if you want it done right then do it yourself"

Im working on it brothers...

DonÂ’t let it happen again. Geez, gotta lead all the newbies by the short and curlies to get them to open up and trust in the program.

We are all here for you. Use and abuse us. (Athan likes the abuse part) but donÂ’t you dare get another can. I will come down there and kick your ass.

IQWYT is commonly included when folks post. It means "I quit with you today"

I have never seen anyone post IQAOMOTAIDNYB (I quit all on my own today and I don't need you basterds!)

Thanks for the digits!
IQWYT!

[Athan]

As quoted by razd611:

To what lengths are you willing to go to stay quit?

What will you do that you normally wouldnÂ’t?

The amount of effort you put into staying quit is directly proportional to the end result.

I bet you would have done what ever you had to in the past to make sure you had the nic bitch with you on your vacations. You have to have the same drive to keep her away.

You must truly understand what it means to fail to completely overcome the grasps of your addiction.

If you care enough and want to find a way to make being on roll a priority, you will find a way. You are the only one that has to look you in the mirror each morning.
