Helloes?

[Lo0p]

It's been quite a while since I've peeked in on what was my second family (all of you) for years. I believe the last time I visited here was to post about My Aunt Chris who was killed by a drunk driver back in February.

My life this year has been a series of ups and downs. That was definitely a low point. But, all in all, I had been doing just fine until my life came crashing down around me. My livelihood was threatened, and is still in danger, we've all been there. For the first time ever though this time it is way, way different:

It has nothing at all to do with addiction. Umm...

:new:

I've got a little story to tell about what I've been through, sure. But I've just been given another chance (we'll call this my ninth, or tenth , life. And, as life has a way of doing just this, it has brought me full circle back to you. I didn't realize how much I've missed you until, well...

I'll explain soon, but first...


:lHow are all of you??:l

Helloes?

Hey Loop, it's great to see you back. I have not been around here much either lately, but I remember you clearly, especially as the guy who went up to a huge baclofen dose in 2 days or something from memory.

I'm very sorry to hear about your Aunt, and also about having a setback in life (if I read correctly and the setback you mention isn't your aunt's passing). I'm sure you'll say more if/when you feel ok to do so.

In the meantime, welcome back!

Hey man, it's so great to see you back here - a week hasn't gone by where I didn't think about you and wonder if you were ok. Glad to see that you're still alive.

I breezed through my 2nd year of indifference this September and thanks to *your* advice, I dropped 40 pounds and am deadlifting 400lbs with a mixture of Lyle Mcdonald RFL and Leangains.

So thanks (and thanks for coming back),

Helloes?

Hey Lo0p,

It's good to see you alive and (mostly) well. I guess you know where to go if or when you need support. Life can be a bitch, but at least whatever you're going through isn't addiction related. I hope being able to approach your problem with a clear head helps. But that doesn't always help me, so I'm not sure what I'm talking about. :H

Anyway, :welcome: back! I hope things start straightening out soon.

Helloes?

Welcome Lo0p,
I've read your earlier posts and agree that baclofen should be classed as an Olympic performance enhancer. I'm still getting unbelievable weight increases eight months after starting to take sport seriously again.

mg Feels amazing when you're tearing it up doesn't it?!

:good: Martin Berkhan makes it pretty easy, but the buck still stops with you.

I love reading Berkhan and M(a?)cDonald. No blanket statements (unless it's a fact), no logical leaps, no bull. Just the truth when it's available and when the information is going out on a limb a little they tell you how far. But most importantly, they back up everything they say with science. You can't make it through a single paragraph with out at least 5 hyperlinks to another elucidating article or scientific study.

Gotta say though, it'd be a lot easier, to take Lyle MacDonald to heart if he walked the walk like Martin Berkhan does.

Where's everybody else? Wake up people!!!

Seriously? Is that all you got for me?

Helloes?

:H
Yep. I'm busy.
(Good to know that I can still rub...)
And I know you well enough to know that you are going to tease us along for a while before you tell us what's the word. *sigh* Plus, I'd hope you'd just pick up the phone. Dammit.

However, I was actually about to do just that because of the whole leangains/nutty-meathead-exercise-thing. Science schmience. I'm about to quit smoking and you whipped me into shape the first time. Damned if I'm putting it all back on now.

But bac(k) to you. What gives? You've been missed.
xxoo
