Re: Great Lakes Fitness Center
Found out from a doctor after the birth of my daughter they want me in for testing for diabetes and another condition. Both of which the physician said would explain why even with diet control, exercise, etc, that my weight is stable or creeping up. The pants I found out were a fluke.. My wife had b...

Re: Approval pics sent in!!!
With a clone or TK most you can add to the out side of the boot and not look like poodoo is .5 on the heal and .25 at the toe and then build up 1.5 inside the boot. Any more then 1.5 inside the boot and you will need to size up the boot and get a wider size as well. If it makes you feel any better,...

Re: Approval pics sent in!!!
If it makes you feel any better, I'm really only 6'. My Chewie costume has 9" platform feet and another 4-5" extra height from the mask. :wink: That makes it a bit better.. But not much... At least I'll only have to tilt my head to look at you out of the carpet suit. In suit i'll have to ...

Re: Great Lakes Fitness Center
Dieting has gone well... Learning to restrict to smaller meals more frequently is rough, but I've been doing it. Up to about an hour or more a day (in about 15-20 minutes, sometimes more, stints) on the elliptical at a steady pace, about between a full sprint and a walk for the most part of it. The ...

Re: I need opinions.....
The sad thing is... I come from that area of Kentucky originally.... And when you posted that, I wasn't all that disturbed.... He vaguely resembles a cousin of mine actually.
Excellent work on this build overall..

Re: How is this for tube stripe placement?
I still think the waiting to see would be your best bet, in all angles. Gladd to see you have placement worked out... Sorry I totally spaced and forgot my box Thursday, or I would had the tools to strip the stripes off and let you place them as you would have liked. But glad we at least met up and g...

Re: Christmas Break help
Got a hold of him, he's going to see what his availability is.. My work canceled my shift early today, but they refuse to give me more than 1-2 hours notice, so no idea if any of us are free... With wives during the holidays, considering we both have multiple costumes going, we sorta have to make up...

Re: Great Lakes Fitness Center
Working with my uncle who is a Master Fitness Trainer with the 101st airborne... So far I can run 2 miles in about 14 mins, hit 12 mins once... But the knees did NOT like me either time... About 35-40 pushups before my form gets a little sloppy, and roughly 45-50 before I just can't push myself off ...
