Just so all you ladies know, small breast are definitely sexy. I personally prefer them, they are cute, fun to tease, and don't get in the way. The world would be a much better place if more of what women have for boobs would go towards the ass. There's nothing quite like a nice round ass.



But, since you all probably don't care about that, I hear boobs come back once your body returns to homeostasis.

 

[Netzach]

No they don't. Happily I agree with you about small tits.


And neither does whatever there was of my ass. I do miss having an ass.

I am maintaining 146 partially obstructed motherfucking cranky 10mgs steroid pounds (down from 40mgs, woot) and monday is the second infusion.

I am hoping this can jolt me off the 'roids, fix the narrowing issue, and allow me to eat the giant motherfucking green salad I want more than I've ever wanted anything in food-dom.

Now that things aren't actually hurting me I'm moving around more. However, the queasiness that comes with a partial blockage prevents me from doing anything really vigorous. Working out till I hurl would involve pretty much anything.

I was going to bitch about my back issues until I read this.

Hope this works out for you, Netz. Digits remain crossed.

As for me...waaaa. Forcing my back to go for a run was a bad idea but I refuse to be a slave to this pain. Monday = chiropractor.

Awww, you're sweet.

Small breasts are definitely easier on the back when training/running, too.

Back pain is very real.

The people at Odwalla and Naked juices are my valentine this year. I can at least get some fruit things going thus.

Me too. And just generally I'm trying to make peace with my body right now. Ok, I'm at least trying to try.

I've fixed more backs with heavy deadlifts and foam rolling, than I've seen actually fixed by chiros*. A really good chiro can fix thing, but most seem to just do palliative treatments. Meh.

Don't get me wrong, I sympathise utterly. I had a rare moment last year when some muscle in my back went nuts. I actually laid down for a bit with that, then got MIS to work on it. Once she figured out where the problem was, I was able to hit it with a lacrosse ball and my APTP Foam Roller From Hell. Killed it dead, and I was back lifting the next day with no issues.

It was surprisingly painful. I felt like shit was on fire and trying to pull off my back and jump around the floor for a while. That said, my system doesn't really have that "Ow, FUCK, I'm stopping!" reaction to those sorts of pain. It is an altogether healthy, if annoying, response, and my nervous system just doesn't see it as an option. So many times I've been actively injured and just kept on going, and doing more damage, and often bleeding all over the place.

I like the deadlift for this sort of thing because of the way it loads the spine and hits the little support muscles throughout the back. Admittedly, it is a bad idea for certain portions of the populace, but, wow, those that can benefit seem to reeeeally benefit.

(Yes, the iron can fix anything. Anything, dammit!)

With your background, you may well be one of those people for whom it's a bad idea. That said, I would love to see you deadlift. Literally. Hot chick deadlifting = teh sexy. It does phenomenal things to a woman's ass.

And, seriously, check out foam rolling. It's cheap, easily portable, and bloody useful. When it comes to Self-Myofascial Release, I've got two rollers, a Monster Stick, and a Baby Stick, as well as a selection of lacrosse balls, tennis balls, and such. Soft tissue health is so important when you beat yourself up regularly.

You have a monster stick...tee hee.

But seriously. The back does this annually - I think I mentioned this last year. I got Lance to crack me this evening and that helped quite a bit. Generally, a few days of chiro and I'm good to go.

Copious amounts of gin also helps.

My ass...ah...it is an entity unto itself. Dead lifting and squats do "solidify" it, though, no doubt. (Been awhile since I dead lifted). I am a big fan of the iron but the stupid web project has kept me more stationary than usual.

Blah, blah, blah...maybe too much gin again.

Hooray for you and the juice!!

Mmm. I'm too hard on the bod. I think it's a masochist thing, you?

Most would say perverted

You laugh, but The Stick[url] is awesome.

And, for you masochists out there, it hurts, wow.

Yup, for some people it works. *shrug* I don't think they're quacks, but I'm not a fan.

On my own note, holy jumping fuck, I'm sore. Friday was apparently more brutal than expected. (Though two and a half hours of sweating-like-mad, violent, intense sex yesterday probably did not help my recovery one bit.)

 

[Cattypuss]

Well I wore a pedometer today. Only for the dog walks. So it didn't count the walking I do round the house, round the village or round the shops etc. Just the dog walking.

And today I made sure to do the exact same dog-walking - same route, everything - as I do every weekday.

The pedometer counted 12,720 steps.

Not too shabby for a daily routine (especially as the walks are hilly) - and if you add on my other walking in the day, it's probably more like 15,000 to 16,000.

Well today, out of curiosity, I did the exact same dog-walking, but also wore the pedometer for my general pottering too.

It's only 5.30 pm but from now til bedtime all I'll be doing is walking from the living room to the bathroom and back a few times, so I may as well take the pedometer off now.

I have done 18,028 steps today.

I bloody hope I've lost weight tomorrow at the Slimming World weigh-in. If I haven't, I may just throw a tantrum right there, standing barefoot on the scales

Most pt's don't show up enough and most insurers don't pay for them to fix you. Good ones definitely can, and would love to. The "come back 150 times" is how they do it though, it's not to scam you. Most people feel better and stop going.

I can totally understand this. I'm trying not to revert to stupidity when I do feel better again.

 

[Netzach]

I am an Ann Taylor size 10. That's probably a little bit size inflated, but the size deflated 30 jeans that I've been trying on were not helping. That's pretty cool. I'd like to finish off this process in a healthier fashion and wind up somewhere between 8 and 6. Returning to a walking around program similar to Cattypuss' should do it, its also my favorite form of caloric burn. I'd *still* like to train for my mellow 5K fun run as I was last summer, and H will surely help me again.

In other news, having made NO dietary changes at all, I went from feeling like ass to feeling OK in one day and for no discernible reason. I don't like to look a gift horse in the mouth, but this is a serious moment of WTF.

I will be happy eating none of the following things for a long time: white bread, potato, wheat free toaster waffle, chicken, turkey, applesauce and juice.

Trying to catch the end of winter season sales. It's really hard to find a men's medium in anything. All my spring and summer shirts are large. Which is fine on my frame. My belly can handle a medium now. And that would pop my arms out more with the tightness. Large is the safer choice. I could gain 20 pounds and a large would still fit.

I can totally understand this. I'm trying not to revert to stupidity when I do feel better again.

It frustrates me though. A few years back, I jacked up my knee at work. I was stepping backwards to get a better shot, and stepped into an 18" deep chuckhole. Lotsa pain, whee. Well, the docs couldn't figure out exactly what was going on, and virtually everything my PT tried did more harm than good. At one point she was virtually in tears because she was convinced that I hated her. No, I just was not going to let her continue to have me do things that I knew from past experience to be harmful for my knees (lunges, for example), and I wasn't gonna budge. Goddamn, if I can feel the crackling of my chrondomalacia patella getting worse, whatever you're doing for the mystery problem that ain't helping needs to stop.

One highly expensive knee surgery later, and a few more weeks of PT, and my knee was still screwed. I read one book written by an MT that really knows his shit, and I fix my knee in a few minutes.

MIS had shoulder problems for years, and went through almost a full school year with her arm in a sling. She tried all sorts of things, and all sorts of docs. I worked on her shoulder and ameliorated about 80% of the problem, but it was more palliative and mobility-related (not bad, but not perfect, and the exact sort of Tx that I'm against). I figured it was posture-related, but couldn't figure it out as, well, I'm not that good.

She goes to see a really, freaky good PT (guy works for the Yankees during the baseball season), and he catches the problem right off. He gives her the exercises she needs to fix her neck, and the problem goes away. I think she saw him like four times total. That is a fix, not a palliative. (He did make the comment that the work I did on her shoulder was on the money. I was pretty happy about that.)

Regardless, my complaint is less about the field en toto, and more about the variance in ability and knowledge. I'm in awe of guys like the one what fixed MIS' shoulder issue by correcting the way she held her neck. To me, that's incredible. Yet I did a better job of handling my own issues than my Masters Degree having PT did, and the sports med doc that worked on my knee.

I want more guys like the one that worked on MIS, and less like the ones that couldn't figure out my problem. The thing is, that knowledge is out there. Hell, I found it. It makes me wonder why my PT didn't do what I did to myself.

That said, hell, maybe she isn't used to big, think guys like me. I dunno. She was a nice girl, really, and she was trying hard. She just used all the wrong tools.

(Part of me still wants to ditch this insurance shit behind and go back to school for a degree in kinesiology and physical therapy. I've thought about it for years, as the subject fascinates me.)

Maybe a little bi. If you start jacking it in front of the mirror I'd be more worried.

 

[YourCaptor]

So Missy, how's it working out?

 

[WriterDom]

Leg day. I think I'll push it today. I haven't been sore in a while.

Oh yeah, I've dealt with freaky smart chiro and utterly moronic PT at one point.

I'm in 32 jeans today. I need to rethink this entire year.. Maybe instead of body goals I need performance based goals. I know I want a cycling schedule. Bike X amount of miles a week and work on increasing it. I'm not terribly interested in bulking up. Just want to stay strong. I could do a lot more on general flexibility and core.

Squats I did 5 sets of 12 with the 50 pound bar then worked up to six plates on the leg press. Followed by leg extensions and leg curls. I'm thinking I'll really feel that come Wednesday morning. Tomorrow too but it's the next day that really gets me.

I hope to get some biking shorts by the end of the week. Have to go out of town. No bike shop here. Damn weather. It should be about 60 here.

 

[Homburg]

The only hard numbers I set these days are performance-based. If I hit those numbers, odds are damned good that my body will at least be approaching the condition I want. Hell, the best shape I've been in was when I was mountain biking a lot on the same track, and my expressed goal each time was to get back to the car in less time. 70 minutes to do the three course loop became 65 minutes, then 62 then 59, then 57, etc. I kept pushing myself, and getting better, stronger, etc, and the body got closer and closer to where I wanted it to be.

It's like the weightlifting. I'm not a bodybuilder. I don't give a crap how big my arms are. But you can sure as hell bet that if I get to a 400# bench press at some far off point, my arms will be pretty damned big.

Your weight will move up and down, and fluctuate based on how much salt you've had, let alone your food intake, and the same can be said for your waist. But two hundred pounds of iron is always two hundred pounds of iron, to use Henry Rollins' line.
