How tall are you Chris?And since you were here and built one of our prisons, I'm sure you witnessed quite a bit of obesity around the area... It's baaaaad here!Star Lake 00 / Pittsburgh 03 / State College 03 / Bristow 03 / Cleveland 06 / Camden II 06 / DC 08 / Pittsburgh 13 / Baltimore 13 / Charlottesville 13 / Cincinnati 14 / St. Paul 14 / Hampton 16 / Wrigley I 16 / Wrigley II 16 / Baltimore 20 / Camden 22 / Baltimore 24 / Raleigh I 25 / Raleigh II 25 / Pittsburgh I 250

lol, I'm only 6'0" but that is pretty tall to most women.HesCalledDyer said:How tall are you Chris?And since you were here and built one of our prisons, I'm sure you witnessed quite a bit of obesity around the area... It's baaaaad here!
So about that obesity thing... It seems to run rampant all through them hills and hollers on up through West Virginny and PA.0 -
6'10", I'm 5'10"...wonder how inconvenient life would be for someone that tall. Like his bed. Do they have a big and tall mattress store?PJ_Soul said:
NAIA all-American. I have NO idea if there is more than one all-American game, lol, I despise basketball. Perhaps there are different leagues. I also have no clue if they listed his height or weight, or if it was accurate, or even if he was the same height or weight then. I actually didn't even meet him until 2 years after he did that. I was still in high school when he was on an All-American team. Obviously I'm not going to tell everyone who this person is, as that's just too personal and too exposing IMO - I don't name people in my personal life online. But anyway.... It was really fun to have such a huge boyfriend, lol. I'm a tall woman, and always feel like an Amazon woman around average sized men. A guy his size made me so petite for the first time in my life - the guy could pick me up over his head if he wanted to. It was like a tall girl fantasy coming to life.cincybearcat said:
Yup I thought that, but she wrote "All-american". Anyhow, doesn't matter. Like I said I just really like college basketball and couldn't remember a player like that.pjhawks said:
i didn't read everything but PJ_Soul is in Vancouver according to the listed name line above so it could be a Canadian player not US College player. and yes I was curious on who the player might have been if he was an american college player. there is none who if were an all-american who i wouldn't have heard of either.cincybearcat said:
Sheesh relax. You made a statement...I am interested as I love college basketball. You mentioned meeting him at University and him being an all-american. I thought to myself...I don't remember a player like that. I looked at the all-american teams in the 90's. Shaq weighed the most. No one else close. So I said - if he was an all-american at the college level he couldn't have weighed that much. So he must have either not weighed 350 pounds or not been a college all-american. Heck even Big Country was 7'1" and weighed between 275-300 pounds. Robert Traylor was about 300 pounds.PJ_Soul said:
Not all bodies weigh the same (he also played for national teams, not just college BB, not that that makes any difference). WTF is going on here. I'm fucking telling you about someone I knew intimately, and you're what? Calling me a liar? I don't care what you believe. I'm telling the truth. Lie to yourself about what is and isn't possible all you want, I don't give a shit.cincybearcat said:
So ... Shaq was 7’1” and weighed 325. Doesn’t really change your story but no way this dude weighed 350.PJ_Soul said:Smellyman said:if he was 350 he wasn't all muscle.
He had about 4% body fat. He was fucking huge and ripped. So I don't know what to tell you, lol. He was a heavy, tall fucker with massive broad shoulders with no fat and a shitload of muscle. He was an All-American player in the early 90s, and, very weirdly, held a world record for a rowing machine (for speed).
He eventually had to stop playing because he fucked his knees up - no surprise with all that weight on them. But he's apparently a successful personal trainer now (coached college ball for some years).
Edit: I should say if he was an all-American basketball (college level assuming) ... then he wasn’t 350 pounds I should say
So I certainly didnt call you a liar. I said based on the assumptions I made while looking into it it wouldn;t be accurate. But the assumptions could be wrong. Man everyone questioning your statement as it was an extreme weight and yet you focus on me...hmmmm,...lolGive Peas A Chance…0 -
Rumor has it the Ridge & Valley Appalachians were created from all the extra weight we carry.tempo_n_groove said:

You know this is interesting because millenials weren't eating McDonalds and things like that and essentially killing the fast food industry and enjoyed better food options ae now being even more obese than before?

Something else this generation doesn't understand is "skitching". Not sure what you guys called it but it was when there was snow on the ground and you were towed behind a car. Basically grabbing a bumper and skiing with just boots.0 -

We called that sketching and we also had slabbing, which was having a bunch of guys cross a distance on the ice on a bog, except the ice wasn’t quite thick enough to hold your weight for long. So, we’d line up and take turns crossing from shore to clump of ground, usually a clump of grass with a tree growing. One at a time, back and forth until someone fell in. The ice would crack and creak and water would seep up onto the surface of the ice. If you weren’t fleet of foot or were heavier than most, you were going down or in or both. The heaviest kid fell in so much that we let him go first. Anywhere from 4-12 kids would do it. It was wildly entertaining.tempo_n_groove said:

I came across this article last week. It really hit home with me because of the experience I had last year with my mom's doctors while she was struggling in the hospital with heart failure and diabetes complications. I couldn't believe some of the things they said to me and her about her weight.
For example, she had developed anemia and the doctor couldn't figure out why because my mom (rather stupidly) refused to have a colonoscopy to rule out stomach bleeding. I told the doctor it was most likely because she was malnourished, and that doctor had the nerve to say to me in front of her that "you don't get to be 210 pounds from not eating." I told him the absolute truth -- she wasn't eating! I used to bring her prepared low-carb, low-sodium meals on Sunday and when I would visit her on Wednesday, the same food was still in the refrigerator, and I'd nag her, then we'd fight about eating, and then I'd leave. Then the next Sunday I would have to throw that food out and start all over again with a new batch. This went on for at least four months. All she ate was yogurt, cereal, and the occasional apple sauce. Yes, she was anemic because she wasn't eating right, all 210 pounds of her!
Then there was the rehab doctor who tells my mother while she's lying in bed delusional from a magnesium deficiency this time, who could barely walk from being de-conditioned in the hospital bed -- "Ya know, it would be really good for you if you lose weight." Dude, how about we make sure her magnesium levels normalize first? She doesn't even understand where she is and who you are!!! And if diet is a problem, how about you tell the so-called dietitian on staff to stop offering her bullshit sugar-free ice cream after every meal?
After her two month stay in the hell-care system, she moved in with me, and thankfully her near-death experience convinced her to comply with my meal plan for her. She lost forty pounds in two months. But here's the kicker -- ALL of it was WATER built up from the heart failure that the damned doctors in the hospital or the rehab couldn't figure out how to get off her. Yes, that's right -- forty pounds of water, not fat -- and her crappy doctor had the nerve to tell a sick, dying woman in bed to go on a diet and exercise more. Makes me so angry thinking about it. Thank god we finally got her to a good cardiologist who recognized that she needed more diuretic, not weight watchers!!! She pissed off every pound!
Anyhow, take the time to read the article. It may make you think differently about this issue if you have not already had experiences like mine.

And if diet is a problem, how about you tell the so-called dietitian on staff to stop offering her bullshit sugar-free ice cream after every meal?
After her two month stay in the hell-care system, she moved in with me, and thankfully her near-death experience convinced her to comply with my meal plan for her. She lost forty pounds in two months. But here's the kicker -- ALL of it was WATER built up from the heart failure that the damned doctors in the hospital or the rehab couldn't figure out how to get off her. Yes, that's right -- forty pounds of water, not fat -- and her crappy doctor had the nerve to tell a sick, dying woman in bed to go on a diet and exercise more. Makes me so angry thinking about it. Thank god we finally got her to a good cardiologist who recognized that she needed more diuretic, not weight watchers!!! She pissed off every pound!
Anyhow, take the time to read the article. It may make you think differently about this issue if you have not already had experiences like mine.

Smellyman, how about reading the article? It's FULL of science, made especially for people like you. Good grief.0

Yeah, our children would have been 9 feet tall and 800 pounds.Thirty Bills Unpaid said:PJ_Soul said:
NAIA all-American. I have NO idea if there is more than one all-American game, lol, I despise basketball. Perhaps there are different leagues. I also have no clue if they listed his height or weight, or if it was accurate, or even if he was the same height or weight then. I actually didn't even meet him until 2 years after he did that. I was still in high school when he was on an All-American team. Obviously I'm not going to tell everyone who this person is, as that's just too personal and too exposing IMO - I don't name people in my personal life online. But anyway.... It was really fun to have such a huge boyfriend, lol. I'm a tall woman, and always feel like an Amazon woman around average sized men. A guy his size made me so petite for the first time in my life - the guy could pick me up over his head if he wanted to. It was like a tall girl fantasy coming to life.cincybearcat said:
Yup I thought that, but she wrote "All-american". Anyhow, doesn't matter. Like I said I just really like college basketball and couldn't remember a player like that.pjhawks said:
i didn't read everything but PJ_Soul is in Vancouver according to the listed name line above so it could be a Canadian player not US College player. and yes I was curious on who the player might have been if he was an american college player. there is none who if were an all-american who i wouldn't have heard of either.cincybearcat said:
Sheesh relax. You made a statement...I am interested as I love college basketball. You mentioned meeting him at University and him being an all-american. I thought to myself...I don't remember a player like that. I looked at the all-american teams in the 90's. Shaq weighed the most. No one else close. So I said - if he was an all-american at the college level he couldn't have weighed that much. So he must have either not weighed 350 pounds or not been a college all-american. Heck even Big Country was 7'1" and weighed between 275-300 pounds. Robert Traylor was about 300 pounds.PJ_Soul said:
Not all bodies weigh the same (he also played for national teams, not just college BB, not that that makes any difference). WTF is going on here. I'm fucking telling you about someone I knew intimately, and you're what? Calling me a liar? I don't care what you believe. I'm telling the truth. Lie to yourself about what is and isn't possible all you want, I don't give a shit.cincybearcat said:
So ... Shaq was 7’1” and weighed 325. Doesn’t really change your story but no way this dude weighed 350.PJ_Soul said:Smellyman said:if he was 350 he wasn't all muscle.He had about 4% body fat. He was fucking huge and ripped. So I don't know what to tell you, lol. He was a heavy, tall fucker with massive broad shoulders with no fat and a shitload of muscle. He was an All-American player in the early 90s, and, very weirdly, held a world record for a rowing machine (for speed).He eventually had to stop playing because he fucked his knees up - no surprise with all that weight on them. But he's apparently a successful personal trainer now (coached college ball for some years).
Edit: I should say if he was an all-American basketball (college level assuming) ... then he wasn’t 350 pounds I should say
So I certainly didnt call you a liar. I said based on the assumptions I made while looking into it it wouldn;t be accurate. But the assumptions could be wrong. Man everyone questioning your statement as it was an extreme weight and yet you focus on me...hmmmm,...lol
You guys shoulda bred.
With all its sham, drudgery, and broken dreams, it is still a beautiful world. Be careful. Strive to be happy. ~ Desiderata0
