Re: [sigh]I hope I'm just being really paranoid...[/sigh]
mmm... I spend 10-12 hours a day setting in my recliner and browsing the web and learning stuff. For exercise I paddle my legs up and down while my 10 lb poodle, Daisy, lays between my legs, sleeping. I never hear from her unless she needs a drink or has to whizpoo. Then she starts tapping my knee with her paw.
I'm 6'6" and 245lbs in my birthday suit, my bp is 120/80 to 110/70. My resting pulse is 55 bpm. About 8 years ago I rode my bike to work for a year, before I got hit by a truck, which injured my foot, resulting in a recommendation from my doc to wear sandals. During that year I dropped from 258 to 228, and replaced a lot of fat with muscle. I was going to quite using the bike anyway because the seat gave me a lot of discomfort. I have a bicycle machine, a WII exercise board and a treadmill. I don't use the bicycle because I can't find a seat that doesn't make my prostate act up. Because of BPH I've had the green laser surgery, sort of a roto-rooter, which made urination and emptying the bladder a LOT easier, as long as I don't spend much time on banana seats. I don't use the treadmill because I was born without pads on the bottom of my feet and a severe case of hammer toes. Despite two corrective surgeries they continue to make walking painful. I always wear Columbia Riptide sandals, no matter where I go or what I do, because the strap doesn't compress my toes against the sole of the sandal like a shoe does. My wife and I used to have a gym membership and swam a lot, but quit because the place wasn't maintained in a sanitary condition. Mold was everywhere and I didn't like breathing in spores, which made it smell like a mummy's tomb.
My wife and I walk a mile a day when the high temps stay below 80 and above 40.
