Marriage would most likely put the car funds to a grinding halt, apparently my girlish figure as well...
I would die. How long do they deprive you of food/water? I can't go more than 12 hours without eating a big meal. I always have on-the-go snacks(fruit snacks/trail bars yadda yadda) on me at all times.
Good work all, it was an epic thread drift that only the power of bacon or donuts could instigate.

I used to climb hills and wield a 24" bar chainsaw and run a backhoe all day erry day for like 5~6 years. Caloric intake was ridiculous. Then I got past 30, got married, got a desk job and gained no **** 40lbs. This month I've started swimming again, so hopefully that takes a bite out of my ***.

When you get "liberated," they feed you. But it's only things like soup, milk and scrambled eggs. Your esophagus gets really, really sore because it has to re-stretch. Wierd. Lots of medical people are there in the background keeping a close eye on things (and to pull the poor Jeff's out of training, LOL).
Now, back to donuts. And bacon.

Yes, Ed, bring me some of them donuts so I can compare to Voodoo. Yes Jeff, those were voodoo.
I'm somewhere in between Jeff and G. The remnant metabolism from the competitive swimming days has kept me from putting on a significant amount of weight, but I'm definitely not 5% body fat any more. And I'm one of those guys who only puts on weight on the belly - so it shows immediately as a nice middleaged pooch.
Consistently getting to the pool is the best thing I can do. But so much wrenching! And my family expects me to, like, converse with them and stuff! GOSH. So little time left for exercise. About the only way I can consistently get it done is to get my *** out of bed before everybody else, and do it before breakfast. Otherwise the day just gets consumed by stuff.

I'm currently looking into 2 jobs, 1 has a soccer field on campus and an awesome group of hlguys who play for an hour everyday. The other one doesn't. I honestly don't think anything will convince me to pass on the job with soccer, unless theres a 5 figure salary difference.mostly because I have absolutely no self motivation to excersize. And the health costs of weighing 300 lbs easily offset the money difference.

I interned there over the summer, and the culture is my favorite part of it. Now if they would just finalize the offer so I can blow the rest of my money on car parts...

Donut Day achieved:

Donuts were yummy. Kinda undercooked as Jeff said.
Edit: I better explain that photo. I bought 18 donuts and took them all over the dealership to the different departments. I ended up eating 2.5 of them (or, rather, am in the process of eating 2.5... not sure I'll make it) and the ones in the box are what's left. I need to figure out what to do with them.

Next time any of you are in Corvallis you need to try out Nut Cakes, they are awesome.
NutCakes - Home
They also have a donut burger...glazed donut for the bun with a cheeze burger in the middle. Sounds gross, tastes ******* amazing.....once again how am I not 300lbs.

Lol... I did get one maple bar, someone snagged it. Remember, there were 18 donuts and I didn't get more than 2 of any one kind. I do like the maple bacon bar from Voodoo.
I dunno, I kinda like the chewy soft ones. I'm one of the people who loves a Krispy Kreme original glazed but I can enjoy both styles.

I hate all you donut eating bastards.
I have been on a diet since January. Only lost 9.5 pounds so far, and I have given up such nice things as donuts. Today I stopped taking one of my meds that I suspect contributes to my inability to lose weight even when nearly starving myself.
