Our new Indie Games subforum is now open for business in G&T. Go and check it out, you might land a code for a free game. If you're developing an indie game and want to post about it,
follow these directions. If you don't, he'll break your legs! Hahaha! Seriously though.
Our rules have been updated and given
their own forum. Go and look at them! They are nice, and there may be new ones that you didn't know about! Hooray for rules! Hooray for The System! Hooray for Conforming!
Sweet dreams and [CHAT] machines, in pieces on the ground.

I am sending you a PM in regards to this, again, because you insist on bringing it up, and publicly.
I have already told you why I did this - you IM'd me way too frequently, even after I told you that it was too much for me to keep up with, and was distracting me from working sometimes (I stay online and "away" half the time, so that I may be easily reached if somebody needs to get ahold of me while I'm working, and/or leave a quick message, and/or if somebody I haven't heard from in a very long time happens to sign on). You really need to stop beating yourself up about this - I have hardly been on AIM at ALL these past few months, because my non-internet life has been completely taking over. I can recall having maybe three or four "longer" conversations with people during that time. I have really been absent from the AIM's. You have not been missing anything, I assure you.
THIS.
I lost 13 lbs but that was back between August and September. Then I put most of it back on again. I'd like to re-lose it.
I miss the weight I was at during my Junior year of college. That was the only time in my life where I wasn't severely underweight, or overweight like I am now. I weighed 95lbs Freshman year of college, and by Junior year I was around 145-150lbs.

I don't. I only have one pair, other than my combat-shit-kicker-boots. Worn the same ones since grade 8. They are velcro.
I wouldn't worry too much Buck, whether or not you're losing weight, you're healthier.
I miss city living. Walking around Boston in the snow and rain was fun.

Maybe I'll go to the warehouse tomorrow and dig out my weights, and start lifting a little. It won't help me lose any weight, but at least it'll help keep my arms from turning into jelly. Plus it'll suck up a good 15 minutes of boredom each day.

that's probably that "starvation mode" they talk about. Essentially, you're storing up fat because of the lack of calories. Keep at it and your body will get used to your new intake.
Count your calories, eat plenty of healthy foods. Work out regularly, and you'll start to see steady improvement.
And walking isn't bad. Actually, anything that burns calories at all is good. Except maybe trying to digest lots of food.
And if you invest in a good pair of shoes (ie not tennis shoes) and practice proper running techniques you can
minimize joint stress pretty easily
On one hand, I love flying a jet around and wrecking stuff.
On the other, the cutscene and in-game dialog is horrible. Someone says something about "dance with the angels" in like every line. I want to travel to the writer's house, ring his doorbell, and then when he answers, just scream in his face "I GET IT ALREADY" and then leave without any kind of explanation.
I have not, yet. I may end up buying it next month, though.

What the fuck? 95 pounds? How tall are you??
I like a much simpler test: If you're out of breath from trying to tie your shoes, you should probably lose some weight.
Not that anyone brought up BMI, I just wanted to mention that.

Eat fast food right before bed.
With that in mind, I suppose gaining heart problems is easy too.
So i definately need a hair cut...
should I stick with my tried and true due? Like so?
(never mind the beard in that one... 10 days into No Shave November. Stupidest month long contest ever.)
I want to try something different but I have no idea what my hair is good for.

I like Ace Combat, but yeah the cutscenes are UGH. They need to just make them over the top Top Gun with a bunch of flyboy jocks, none of this lovey dovey anti-war poop. There's enough of that to go around.
Also, Uncharted and Uncharted 2 are really good, especially 2. The dialog is so fantastic.
I don't think I've got the right shaped head for that.
Also I have like, a 5 inch scar on my forehead.
I do this all the time and I have never weighed a pound over 130.
I'm 127 lbs now.
It is practically impossible for me to gain weight, I've tried. Don't mock me and tell me it's easy!

Bizarre!
(apparently I look like someone Iruka went to highschool(i think?) with too.)
To whomever this advice applies - be sure to get your gait analysed so you know whether you overpronate or supinate and get the right shoes to support you.
My wife runs competitively (has had quite a few top 10 finishes) and is currently training to run a marathon!
I don't have the patience for that, so I'm just running when I have the time and will be entering my first 10k race in a few months.
Yeah, gameplay-wise, the only thing I could ask for of an ace combat game is "more big stuff to kill"
I'll look into the Uncharted games as soon as I have a ps3. I have the feeling my xbox is going to red ring eventually and I might just avoid that fiasco by trading it in. That, and I want a blu-ray player.
I'm still not digging my real short hair. I'm just waiting for it to grow out a few more inches, then it'll go back to looking like it did two years ago.

You don't count. You don't even have a colon for bad food to get lodged in.
I used to be like that. Then I suddenly gained 30 pounds in 6 months.
If it happened to me it could happen to you! Dun Dun Dunnnnn
@buck: thanks! I guess for now I'll stick with it since I haven't gotten any ideas and I'd rather have something I know looks pretty good instead of getting stuck with some weird monstrosity that just doesn't work.
Now to find someone in town who cuts hair well...
edit: how do you guys find new hair people?
I can't believe I haven't played Uncharted 2 yet, jeeze, should do that.
still going there tomorrow to get a cut though. It gets decent enough.

The scar is my secret
I usually pay 20-30 for a haircut with the guy I go to. I started off much cheaper but the place he works for keeps upping all of their fees, even he's not happy about it. But I no one before him has cut my hair as nice and he's a genuinely cool dude... I just tend to only get my hair cut 3-4 times a year to offset the costs.
But if a local mastercut type place should be good enough its only 10 bucks...
