My confession is so shocking, so abhorrent, that I signed up for a new BF account so I could confess anonymously.

I'm 6'0". My weight at one point got up to 205 lbs. I took up cycling 8 years ago, and managed to get down to between 175-180 for the last two years. I was stuck, however, and couldn't/didn't lose any more. My favorite thing to do is climbing, and I despaired, because I weighed too much ever to be any good at it.

In April, I snuck off to a doctor I found in the Yellow Pages that does 'medical weight loss'. There a nurse practitioner gave me a cursory examination. She raised an eyebrow at my seeking treatment with a BMI of 24, however she nonetheless prescribed phentermine, 37.5 mg, one pill every AM. That's an appetite suppressant, the phen in fen-phen. I've been taking it ever since. I haven't told a soul, not even my wife.

So, that is my confession.


You need help......tuby.

Seeing my totaled bike made me so sad that I had to dismantle it and put it underneath my futon, with one arm.

Remember when Lance retired the first time, then ran a marathon and said it was harder than cycling. Talk about heresy

I installed pedals that have a clip on one side and a platform on the other because sometimes I just lack the commitment to clip in.

I took incredible joy about passing a recreational family on the MUP the other day.

They must've been going about 5mph.

YokeyDokey 05-23-11 02:17 PM

I took my family out on the MUP the other day.

okay, i don't know wtf the MUP is, but it sounds funny.

YokeyDokey 05-23-11 03:13 PM

I just created an Outlook Rule sending any emails from my supervisor or his supervisor straight to the Deleted Items folder so I will have more time to lounge in BF.

I have a crush on a girl who's probably too young for me. :(

I sure hope you're not a teacher.

I was going to dope with Lance, but he never would pass the bong. I ordered pizza anyway.


I like pizza.

Hey dirty minds!!!

Maybe he is 50 and the girls is 30. Still a big age difference, but why assume the worst?

My 16 year old daughter said "Hey dad, I'll make you a deal - you don't date any of my friends and I won't date any of yours." Oh don't get all worked up, I'm not a pedophile... the last four women I dated were well over 50... cumulative.

I like to randomly flag ads on craigslist.

My bike is worth more than my car.

My crushes are dirty but age appropriate, so what else would I think. Just sayin'...

itchyfinger 05-24-11 10:32 AM

I smoke.

YokeyDokey 05-24-11 11:53 AM

I have to smoke. Too green to burn.

But did you do it without kit and with platform pedals?

Maybe a backpack?

caloso 05-25-11 05:05 PM

Backpack yes. And tie, dress shirt, pants, and dork bands.
