Don't worry. It WILL come back to haunt him. I used to be the same.
Yep. There's only one cure for a fast metabolism -- age. And a thyroid problem. Ok, two cures. That I know of. :shifty:

Right around the mid to late thirties is when I noticed it.
Yup. I've had to up my exercise and lower my food indulgences when I hit about 38 just to keep at my preferred weight. I'm reasonably lucky, I guess, in that exercising does keep my metabolism reasonably high. And on that note, my morning rage ride along the South Saskatchewan River awaits …
Mine actaully fell apart at 25. Well, not really - it's still probably higher than most - but there was a sudden substantial weight gain without my changing my lifestyle at all.

never had a good metabolism myself. i used to be skinny but that was by effort not design

That's my general plan. I eat like godfuck right now so when the weight actually starts staying on instead of jumping off when given any chance to, I will just lay off the cookie dough and up my mileage a little.

And for the record, the weight that leaves me first is muscle. I'll spend two months getting up to a certain weight/strength, not go to the gym for two weeks, and be back to where I was 2 1/2 months earlier.
Look, you have to establish context for these things. And I maintain that unless you appreciate the Fall of Constantinople, the Great Fire of London, and Mickey Mantle's fatalist alcoholism, live Freddy makes no sense. If you want to half-ass it, fine, go call Simon Schama to do the appendix.

Question: would you want to spend any time in close proximity to Wolter's brain? The neanderthal metal, Thor comics, and Bea Arthur masturbatorial fantasies make up a mental stew unsafe for anyone outside the old Confederacy.

Tied my best time on my bike this morning—47 min, 07 sec on a 21.5 km route, which works out to about 27.4 kph. Helps that for the first time all summer there was no wind from any direction. Probably sweated about four pounds in the heat, tho. If it hadn't been so damn hot, I would have gone for a second lap.

A mature and confident human being does not have to engage in distortions. Nyeh. Big meanie.

(My first ever bike was a banana-seat. Red, with a red and glittering seat. I think I managed to go about five months before it was stolen.)

That would be like a 7:45 or somewhere around there. It might be a tall order, but its three miles so I could just got flat out and see how it goes.

I need to figure out what the course is.
