eh...people focus too much on age...who gives a damn. If you stay in shape you're never "old". My wife's grandfather is 82 years old and he still bales hay on his farm. About 2 years ago he broke his collarbone wrestling a pig into its pen..he didn't go to the doc until my mother-in-law made him. LOL

What happened to your forum?
They f'ed up when trying to migrate the shared server I'm on to another. Then I lost my credit card and got issued a new one so the reoccuring billing stopped because it has a diff number on it. I didn't know that until like a week and a half after the fact.
Up and running now though.
Happy Birthday.
Hows that sticky coming?

Happy birthday. Next year I'll buy you a senior coffee at Denny's. You old codger.
You tightwad!!! You know that dinner and coffee are free on your birthday!
One year closer.
Most importantly though, you have one of the greatest internal gems that no one can see with their eyes that makes you strong.
Its located in your heart. And, its transformed into a work of art.
What is uttered from your heart alone is GOLD.
BEHOLD as you watch your internal greatness UNFOLD.
Even the physically strongest men, can be weak, if their heart doesnt have their spirit near it.
This is why you are so strong.
Your head has tought your heart that its a friend. And your spirit is able to comprehend.
And, for this you have power few people are able to tap.
And, though I posted this in the COL, I am going to post it here for you.
You are smart, Richard, because YOU KNOW, you are THE ONE.
For what its worth, I want to share something with you, that I generally do not. Currently, I am a low carb diet (using the diuretic effect it gives) just to remove some (small amounts) of water, and then I am going to post some pics.
Like most persons on the forum, I love my carbs. However, the first few days were wreaking havoc on me (mentally and physically). But, I am doing GREAT! With this in mind, I always keep a history of my progress in my gym (my garage). I still have the hanging wrap around wire with the goal pic I wanted to look like, and the progress track that includes my progress pics inbetween the days and months, in my garage near my upright bike. In addition, just like I mentioned before, I have my starting pants (and its size) hanging in the garage. I have various quotes hanging on the garage walls. I am going to post a pic of this as well.
This is the place I go, when I need self-assistance.
And, if ONE looks at the following post "correctly" you should see my point when considering the previous (or last) paragraph:
The One
(By Chillen)
(A song (by Elton john) but slightly restructured, to apply to one's self to have meaning)
The One's state of mind shifts and what was once a priority may not necessarily be today.
Whenever I feel troubled, I go to my partner who "understands"---->The One (YOU).
A spirit born of earth and water............
In the instant that you love someone (YOU)
In the second that the internal spirit hits
.....................Reality runs up your spine
And the pieces finally fit...............
And, realize all you ever needed is: The One.
The One. It’s the place where I have left my sweat, blood, over 30 pounds of unwanted tissue, and many tears. It whispers to The One. It reveals to The One what The One is really made of and rekindles the spirit of The One. It doesn’t allow The One to question it. It doesn’t allow The One to ever doubt it. It reveals the truth to The One. It shines the light on The One.
Then The One shall see Fire flying from the hands..............
It reveals the depth and character of The One and reveals the moral reserves. It reveals the internal contents of The One, and tells The One:
There is no greater freedom, when you see your future in THE ONE.
The Spirit within The One never dies.
We have a hunger of the mind which asks for knowledge of all around us, and the more we gain, the more is our desire; the more we see, the more we are capable of seeing.

(The One, By Chillen)
=========================================================
Turn your face to your shadow; you have this shadow due to your unique inner GLOW. Do not make a self-coffin, there will be no external shadow to SHOW.
(Chillen)
==========================================================
We can live one life or several different lives dependent upon the state of our mind.
(Chillen)
Sometimes, it only takes a short time to change some views, while other times, it can take much longer to change a person's view in certain matters. You will be constantly learning a lesson or two in life. And, there are lessons so big that totally make you rethink your entire position in life.
The size of the lessons that you learn in life do not matter. This same rule can also be applied to the paths that you have chosen before. Always keep in mind that you should be in charge of your life and your preceptive feelings.
Therefore, you should be able to change what you do not like. It does not matter what others have to say about you. You always have choices, if you are willing to see them.
Do not make an internal coffin. Rather apprehend a close friend; change your frame of MIND it will never lead you BLIND, and allow positive perception to UNWIND.
(Chillen)
==========================================================
Additional thoughts:
Every decision you make in life is based on your belief system. To open your mind, start to list your fundamental beliefs, and for each one ask yourself why you believe it. Then ask yourself whether you could imagine being you if you didn't exactly believe it any more, but believed something marginally different. Then marginally different from that. Pick a belief a week and work at it. Ask some really good friends what they believe and how they acquired their beliefs. Understand this - your belief system is absolutely unique to you. Your friend's belief system is unique to them. An open mind is comfortable with differences, and also a variety of lenses to view an issue.
==========================================================
Change the way you view the power of feeling down: Instead of it having power over you, use it to empower yourself:
Apprehend this feeling and embrace it; feel its power. Turn this power against itself and use this force to enable outward action of elimination.
(Chillen)
You have at your personal disposal all the tools you need for the elimination process:
Change your frame of mind along with diet and training.
I posted this for another forum member, but I feel it can benefit you in some way. NEVER DOUBT you have the ability.
EDIT:
An educated mind knows that the body was biologically adjusting to the the low carbs, and when knowing this and feeling the effects, the MIND has to overcome the body adaption. Thus revealing the abolute POWER of mind-body connection.
Thus releasing the POWER of: THE ONE
Best wishes,
Chillen
