Fat Ralphy checking in here folks..... I intend to use this thread to document and motivate my efforts for health and fitness. My hopes are that putting myself out there and being accountable to the forum will help me stay on point. Over the last two years I have packed on approx. 50 lbs - stress and injuries have made it hard to get on track. My plan is as follows - get my eating in check, post my meals here and document meal prep. Increase my activity - I currently train Brazilian Jiu Jitsu a few times a week but I want to add some lifting, biking, swimming and cardio. Today i weighed in at 305 lbs - my goal weight …

Does anyone here practice Jiu Jitsu or wrestling? I'm thinking about joining my coworkers in our local gym. But I wanted to hear your thoughts on it. 1. How long have you guys been practicing? 2. Where do you guys train? 3. How do you guys train/build strength for it? 4. Do you guys where gis/no-gi and what brands do you guys prefer?

Alright guys, I'm sure we have a cooking thread somewhere, or maybe even a bbq thread somewhere.... but it's 2019, almost 2020 and it's time for something fresh. Please share your favorite places to get bbq and/or other types of meats. Whether it's a butcher shop you love, a local hole in the wall food joint you love, or a product you can buy at your local store. @Fist 666mentioned he liked Texas Pete bbq sauce in another thread, and @Hua Guofanghad some experiences here in Austin, TX to speak about. Recently, @Kultswas telling me about the Portuguese chicken that is common in his area, I had never heard of it. I'd love to hear any drunk stories…

Ok guize here goes....I ran a search and only came up with the crypto thread. Some of the guys I work with are into the stock market and some of them are capitalizing pretty well...... I have had a surplus of cash just sitting in a bank account without any real great interest etc. I figured I could get into some stocks and hopefully profit majorly stack paper and get that cheesy guacamole ya smell me. Perfect example - I was told in April 2020 to buy some NIO stock which was at apprx. $2.10 and sits today at $57+. Obviously I regret sleeping on that and hope to find a similar investment. Starting off small with $2500 in a…

With the rise of ciders in the last ten years I suspect more and more people partake in drinking them, and probably have a favorite. I've been drinking hard ciders since the 80s, back when Strongbow and Hornsby's were the only ones you could find... IF you could find them. My absolute all-time favorite cider has to be ANVIL from Sonoma Cider, which shut down operations about a year ago after losing funding. Bummed... me... out. Recently I came upon the mother-load and bought the store out of all they had - Twelve 22oz bottles. Special occasion shit, for real. I'm also a fan of Thistly Cross Whisky Cask But my…

So I decided after 22 yrs in the nail industry-I was fed up with people and knew my brain was not getting used as much as I knew it was capable of so I went home ‘sick’ early from the shop and attended the home and garden show where I saw a cool display which lead me to grab a brochure. I looked into this ‘training center’ and read it was free (like legit no cost) and set the appt up for the beginning stages of several interviews and testing process to enroll. I missed the cut off of the class(20 per class) they were getting ready to begin and had to wait until the next session which began the end of January. A seven month class with a four externship after to complete t…

Ok so, I am kinda (well aktchoo-ull-ie) flirting with a sista and she is ok with it to point she knows I am interested in her by giving me signs that she is interested in me as well by welcoming my advances. My thing is that I have never dated a black women (had the opportunity years ago with another sista) before and I am curious to know if anyone of you Oontzers have dated out side your race? I have dated an Asian and Puerto Rican but never a black woman. Anyhow, this week I plan to take it a step further and exchange numbers so we can spend time together. Any experiences yinz could share that I may be oblivious to?

I know at least a couple of you on this board have busted a knuckle or two fixing that POS beater or a building something cool in your garage @Dirty_habiTI'm lookin in your direction. Post some photos or share some knowledge this isn't a vehicle specific thread just a place to share those money pits. The photo below is the small block ford 302 that a friend of mine helped build for my hot rod. It took about a year and a half to get it running and about another 6 months to work out the kinks. That car and I have traveled about 6000 miles in the last 2.5 years.

When a New York Times Bestselling Author like Jared Diamond writes a book like Collapse about the rise and fall of advance civilizations, you tend to think there is a grave concern widespread among literate and informed americans about the sustainability of our way of life. I've been into survivalism and studying it for most of my adult, teenage and adolescent life. Call it a hunch, paranoia, or obsession predicated upon the fact that my very existence is somehow intertwined with an apocalyptic scenario (long story). Anyways, after reading this fromthewilderness article on Petrocollapse and a scaricity of clean water, I figured it's about time that I create a threa…

any thoughts on what constitutes having a drinking problem? i binge drink alot, and find that after three beers i crave more and more, so normally if i know i can only have one beer, i wont even drink it, cuz it will just make me feel like shit. I dont put alcohol ahead of my responsiblities like work or school, and i refuse to drink when the sun is out, unless i'm at like a BBQ or something. But i find myself drinking alot more regularly, out of the past 5 days i drank everyday, and got drunk 4 out of the 5.

Hopefully someone else here has a drawing or coloring habit. I recently decided to start coloring and drawing again as a hobby with being quarantined and all, oh covid. Thought it would be nice to share some new simple things I have picked up that have worked out very impressively for me, and see if anyone else has found anything worth looking into. My most recent purchase I was thoroughly impressed with was this set of gel pens. Found it quite amusing that these have come back to be popular after all these years, as I used them in elementary school and then they died off. Either way found these on Amazon and listening to some reviews taking a chance, very hap…

I was hoping this would be a place that we can seek professional input from one another. There are plenty of talented people here and we can use our community to help each other. Bounce estimates around to see if costs are reasonable, help with DIY projects, real life connections if doable - basically a place to seek and share professional input or collaboration. For example: @Mercer - you work as an electrician, right? Yesterday I was upgrading the security light on my front porch. I switched off the breaker but it still seemed like I got a small shock when I came in contact with the black wire. Is ther…

https://www.cbssports.com/olympics/news/breaking-competitive-breakdancing-will-be-a-sport-at-the-2024-paris-olympics/ According to BBC, the IOC has said they will prioritize events that appeal to younger viewers. Breaking can be seen as one of those events. Climbing, skateboarding and surfing also added. it’s cool they are leaving towards sports that are fun and lighthearted, instead of combat sports.
