Give up that fried chicken and smoked pork and you would be surprised how fast the weight falls off.

 

I agree, Blasphemy! I'd rather be fat and happy than eat health food and wear skinny jeans.

 

I usually wear 38s in the winter and 36s in the summer... and the gnex with a Seidio Convert case fits in my pocket easily

When I was still in the National Guard, the one thing you didn't lack in the BDU and later, ACU uniforms were pockets. Especially on the ACU you had pockets everywhere! I've seen people place their phones in the sleeve pockets, pants cargo pockets, pants ankle pockets--as for me, I used to place my phone in the upper chest pockets. It literally gave my heart a buzz when the vibration mode went off!

 

Yes, I prefer the chest pocket. My velcro is about worn out from opening the pocket so many times...

In 2001 I was wearing 34's and then I gained too much weight and ended up in 38's pushing on 40's. Last year, almost 10 years later, I finally got back into 34's. I couldn't be happier. Lately though I am pushing back to a 36 again.

Was in 36s a month or so ago...decided I had to make a change and got down to 34s. Hard to do with an IT office job though. Gave up a lot of TV couch potato time for working out and walking. Went to smaller food portions and gave up soft drinks and junk food/desserts.

Thats awesome!!! Proud of u dude.

 

I was once a 29 waste in HS.. come summer 2007 a job had taken me up to a 35/36. I hated it but had a great friend who coached me back down to a 32, where ive stayed for a few years.

I would argue occasional fried chicken and pork bbq isnt the devil. Like digiblur, if you can drop soda alone from your intake, diet or not, you will lose weight. Avoid sweets and high sugar things like suggary cereal or donuts in the morning. Breaking my dependence on cola actually made me unable to tolerate artificial sweetener in my coffee or tea. Soda drinkers statistically crave more sugar in everything they consume. The double cheeseburger at mcdonalds is actually not the end of the world, but the fries are. Eliminate french fries from your diet altogether, everywhere. Have that fried chicken breast or pork with a vegetable on the side

 

Sorry for continuing to derail this thread. Perhaps a "you can do it" thread needs to be opened in the off topic area

Excellent idea.

Congrats digiblur!

    • Well.. my power flickered this evening and kicked my cell spot offline. I noticed that my phone still had service, then the 5G UC showed up on my screen. Honestly thought it was just a hang up from the loss and it was not displaying properly... but then I did a speed test and got 250meg down and 30 Meg upload.... apparently they've added n71 here in the past week and I just found it.  For the first time in 10+ years I don't need a box to give my service at home!! Like a kid with a new toy now...yay!  
    • Sounds like a "well you might as well just buy the company" statement
    • Bloosurf is petitioning to deny T-Mobile's request for an STA specifically in their service area. https://wireless2.fcc.gov/UlsEntry/attachments/attachmentViewRD.jsp;ATTACHMENTS=Ghl9knTSFp8J4nVm1P9qL4541XR1gy58whH7Yyz0MwGs037gQrNV!-2042069078!-79842837?applType=search&fileKey=1297203795&attachmentKey=21718533&attachmentInd=applAttach Short read but pretty much they're saying that T-Mobile's operations in the BRS/EBS band has been interfering with Bloosurf's LTE-based WISP network and that this has caused them harm (lose customers, etc.) They claim that allowing T-Mobile access to all of the spectrum they bought in or near Bloosurf's service area would cause even more interference. To be fair they aren't wrong. They mention that in 2021 the FCC investigated and determined that T-Mobile was operating outside of its licensed spectrum band there. However, I get the sense that Bloosurf is just trying to stop a competitor from operating in their service area. Typically carriers work this kind of stuff out among each other. Here in NYC, 3/4ths of Brooklyn has 140MHz of n41 deployed and the southern 1/4th of it has 80MHz deployed thanks to an incumbent that leases the spectrum from the archdiocese. In spite of that there are no complaints of interference from NextWave in such a dense environment. Seems to me like Bloosurf just doesn't want to coordinate with T-Mobile and would rather complain to delay the deployment of spectrum for as long as possible. EDIT: It's not just their service area, it's a larger area surrounding their service area as well. Something's fishy about this request. 
    • Really cool blog post from OpenSignal giving a broad overview over the mobile network experience in NYC.  https://www.opensignal.com/2023/03/30/localized-analysis-reveals-huge-network-experience-gaps-between-mobile-users-in-the-us
    • Bit too early to tell imo. It's good news if Dish can stop the hemorrhaging. Q3/Q4 2022 they were able to stop the hemorrhaging. Their previous 6 quarters they lost between 160k and 350k subs each. Their next report will be interesting to see how they were impacted subscriber wise due to the hack.
