Been here near Vail, CO at 8000+ feet, 3 months now. Initially failed my CDL Physical with blood pressure too high: 167/135 even on Losartan 100mg/day. Went to an old mountain Doctor and pointed out my right ankle was still swollen from a bone infection four years ago (4” across). He prescribed...

?Your ?dark line,? she said. ?Maybe you?ve been on it too long, maybe I can?t reach you but I want to, I?m waiting through, is been a year and I?m still here waiting...? She went on and on and I was indifferent because I effect the positive, karma rewards those who believe, just another day...

Had a check-up yesterday, stepped on the scale: 256 in pants, shirt, sweater no shoes. When I arrived at the Colorado rocky mountains seven weeks ago I weighed 286, same type outfit. My BP is 152/90, down from 167/135, 15 points lower in systolic and 47 points lower on diastolic in 7 weeks. The...

I came to the Rocky Mountains to improve my health but never imagined it would happen so fast. Been here 42 days; I?m over the elevation sickness, I can breathe normally without panting like a dog that just ran around the lake, my appetite?s good, the attitude is great! I love the fresh air...

Turned 60 last July and renewed my wanderlust spirit. Took a 5500 mile motorcycle round trip to Salt Lake City and back to near Philadelphia August 3rd to the 14th, but that only made the desire to cut loose even stronger. On August 9th I got stuck in an ice storm over Vail pass, 10,000 feet on...

I have about 10 IronMan magazines circa 1971-1975. Need a good home. Downsizing. Not looking for $$ but will have to dig them from storage. Let me know.

How many of us have become wayward sons in our process through life only to acknowledge our need and desire to be what we considered “on track” for who we really wanted to be? How many of us have been faced with the reality of the thought, “I just can’t get there from here,” as we push and push...

Broke legg and ankle in Feb 2016, laid up for 11 months, gained 50 lbs. Also ended up with a candida infection of my gut causing bloating. Had umbilical cord hernia surgery Sept 2017, so my abs became non-existent. In April 2018, weighing 285, I decided it was time to reverse these process'...

The Winter Solstice has happened, the darkness has befallen to light, roots of Winter have set and the darkness before the dawn of Spring is upon us. This is the day we’ve waited for; the seed has been set for germination. My year-long plan is in the final stage, the time is nigh. Only work can...

My ex-wife was having an affair with a married guy at her job since 2006. I found out about it in 2012. We divorced 12/13. I lost everything; 4 bedroom house and over 600K, then retired from my Teacher job. The guy is Mennonite. I let his wife know about the affair in 2012. He got a new job and...

Six months ago I made an effort to change my life, physique and fortune. With older men (58) nothing happens in a hurry, so planning and strategy are paramount. Three goals, lose weight, flatten stomach, lean out. Did several things to facilitate such but would be a fool not to take into...

My daughter took this as we left the gym last night after squats and straight leg deadlift SS of 10x10. This is our fourth week of lifting 4 days per week followed by a 20 minute bicycle for circulation. Still have swelling in right lower leg from the bone infection and cellulitis but at least...

The first week my 17 year old daughter and I were both sore but now we are getting our sets and numbers. Getting stronger. She finished her 10th year as as swimmer this summer and has also played many field sports over the years; soccer; field hockey and lacrosse. She insisted we do squats...

Got my 17 year old daughter a gym membership last week. Knowing she is a procrastinator like me, tonight I suggested we lift together. It’s a win-win; we get each other in the gym, which as you know, is half the battle. Well, she’s a girl after my own heart because the main thing she wants to...

Altered my diet the past 3 months since my ER visit for lower leg swelling. Good news is the swelling since my last hospital stay July 23-/24th is greatly reduced, meaning the 20 bags of antibiotics pumped into my arms in June and July finally broke the cellulitis bone infection I’ve had...
