Being overweight doesn't help either. My feet, knees and back are all subject to going out at any time.

I need to walk to lose weight, but my knees hurt almost too bad to walk. It's a vicious circle.

Hey get this, there was talk earlier about grayman knives. Well he NOW has a FOLDER! It's in the newest issue of tactical knives.

I don't feel pain like most people, not kidding. This started hurting on Friday ans swelled up like crazy, bruised, etc. The doctor and nurses could not believe that I was walking let alone working with it. I guess the old adage, if you are going to do something do it right <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/doh.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/sad.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crazy.gif" alt="" />

I hear you. And all the folks that tell you to exercise are so skinny it makes me sick! Why don't they show some fat folks exercising so we can see some progress and actually feel encouraged!

I might try that tomorrow. I have Tums for the moment but the woozy feeling is something I can't shake.

Wish I had thought of that. Like really wished I had asked. Bad thing is the wife was there with me and did not mention it either. She and I will have a talk about this, well maybe not because she has put up with me for all these years <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/paperbag.gif" alt="" />

Same reason the Big and Tall catalog only has "normal" sized people in it. The powers that be believe that the public only wants to see "normal" sized people in ads and such.

So true. I hate to think about it but I have an excuse at the moment <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/banghead.gif" alt="" />

My pops has arthritis real bad, and has put a lot of weight on because he can't get out and do much. Swimming is what the doc told him to do, and to be honest if I did not look like a Jabba the Hut in a swimsuit I would do it, but I don't want to scar any kids for life <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smirk.gif" alt="" />

Based on what I have seen of the fixed blades I will pass. I sure hope my buddy still has his so I can do a comparison soon.

I just think it's a Communist plot! The skinny exercise video folks.

I like to get in the pool and swim, and my gym has an indoor pool. My problem comes in that I can walk for 45 minutes on the treadmill, but swimming I'm out of steam in about 10 minutes. It's just so much more physically demanding that my old body can't take it. I've tried to work my times up, but that's about all I can do.

You think EVERYTHING is a Communist plot! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/banghead.gif" alt="" />
