Back a bit, I lost 70 pounds in a year on diet alone.  I was working and did not make time for exercise.  Notice, I did not say I did not have time for exercise.  I think that is the biggest cop out to exercise saying you are too busy.  But in any case, I did not exercise much in that year.  I did follow a strict diet with large salads for lunch and dinner.  Those salads included protein, small amounts of cheese, dried cranberries, crumbled rice cake, lettuce, tomato, cucumbers, carrots topped with a low calorie yogart based salad dressing.  All told, about 350 to 500 calories per meal.  For breakfast I had two boiled eggs, grapefruit and occasionally oatmeal or toast.  Dessert, if I chose one was a rice cake with a tsp of peanut butter.    Once I got used to the regimen, it was fairly easy to follow.   
Now a big help was to keep a large calendar posted on my refrigerator.  Each day I would give myself either a gold star or a big red X.  The stars were the kind you see on kindergarteners papers and the red X was done in marker.  It was a very visible reminder of how well I was following through on my commitment.  My limit was three red Xs a month.  So no cheat days or cheat meals scheduled in, just a day when I either purposely or weakly did not stay on the diet.   
I did not weigh myself except on day one and day 366.  The daily fluctuations of weight can be disheartening.  At the end of the year, I had lost 70 pounds and felt great.  Unfortunately, a year later, I became ill, any semblance of control was lost and I did gain the weight back.  To truly say you have lost weight is to keep it off for at least two year.  
Good luck with your diet.  I am now doing diet and exercise and though I have been good about both, especially the exercise, the weight has not come off very quickly (my trainer weighs me every six weeks and I know the variation but not the acutal weight).  However, I have lost 2 pants size and one shirt size and that is reinforcement enough.   

I’ve been on my munjuaro now Zepbound for nearly 2 years!
Much improved diet, 3 to 4 exercise days/week, 75% reduction in alcohol intake!
90lb reduction and I feel absolutely wonderful!  
 
You can do it!

Been on Mounjaro since April for diabetes management.  I started with 2.5 then 5.0 a month later then 7.5 a month after that.  My A1C went from 11.1 to 6.4 in about 2 months and I've lost 25 pounds since I've started (between the med and improved diet).  All my side effects have been gastro related (sulpher burps, constipation) but all have been manageable with OTC meds and increasing my fiber and water intake.  I've definitely noticed the decrease in food noise (constantly thinking about food) and decrease in appetite and cravings.  For me, the improvement in my blood sugar alone has been a game changer and a life saver.
PM if you have any questions.

A memorial for Lucky was held yesterday at a church in Palm Springs. Unfortunately, it was the hottest day of the year (117 degrees at the time of the service), and there were not many people present--another old friend of his and I were almost the only non-family members, and we were both asked to speak about our experience with him, which we did relatively truthfully (we did not discuss the primary subject matter of this website). One of the most positive aspects of the memorial was the fact that everyone present knew and openly acknowledged Lucky's sexual orientation in a very positive way (e.g., his nieces and nephews all refer to his partner as "Uncle"). I was moved by the love and admiration that his family members obviously felt for him. He was my best friend in Palm Springs for many years, and I will truly miss him.

I believe he is the only one who is qualified to share that information.  

Like many I met Lucky at one of the PS Gatherings. Prayers and blessings go out to his partner and family.
 

if this is real, he's one of the good guys.......texted him to check in and see what's up!....thanks for the notice @big-n-tall
 

David is a wonderful person but his partner is just as gregarious and personable; I remember how touched I was with him when he and David hosted the early bird pool parties for the Palm Springs events.
Tell David we hope his partner recovers and feels better @purplekow

David is indeed here in Palm Springs.  In fact, he had to cancel out on a group outing yesterday due to the illness of his partner and he sent me his ticket.  He is very busy with another type of work but he is still using his amazing sexual skills when not otherwise occupied.  I must admit it has been many years since I last partook of his skills, but in speaking to a regular of his at the event yesterday, it seems clear the time has not dimmed his light nor dulled his skills.  See him if you are able.  I did see him in a social event of sorts a few weeks ago and he looks great and he is, if anything, better looking than when i first hired him.  

I’m sure Mike G has many fans because:
1. He is good looking and well built.
2. He has porn star status.
3. He is an outstanding kisser.
4. He is good with older clients.
5. He’s versatile. 
6. He’s dependable. Shows up and shows up on time.
7. He’s very smart but doesn’t flaunt it.
8. He can make good conversation. 
9. He travels quite a bit so even if you don’t live in his hometown there’s a good chance you can still see him.
10. His rate is reasonable.

From a match filmed last year.  Yes he is STILL an incredible hunk of a man!

 

Spoke to him a few weeks ago for his Bday he's just a busy guy between working on his home and property, and all his work with Veteran's groups, he has little time.  As we all know he's a terrific guy in HUGE demand, and has great consideration for his long time clients and will always go out of his way to see them.  As far as a newbie actually catching him goes lol it's prolly a right place right time thing.    

 
ONE I TOOK IN HIS HOTEL ROOM ABOUT 10-12 YEARS AGO SOMETHING LIKE THAT. God WHAT a man!!!  *those are my boots on the floor lol

 
 

If I’ve enjoyed a restaurant and my experience was “great,” but it’s been a while, I’m making a reservation and going back. My own experiences carry more weight than someone else’s yelp review. One person saying it slipped wouldn’t override consistently great firsthand experiences.

We already have a site. We discuss clients and share useful information about them such as dick size, body shape and whether they know how to suck a cock. They get a rating on various aspects of their ability as a client. 
There’s 8 scores that all add up to an overall rating. When you’ve seen a client you put his scores into the system and it calculates the client’s overall rating. That is then used to help us decide what to charge or indeed whether to respond atall to the client’s enquiry. 
The 8 scores are:
1) Desirability: 1 to 10 (where 10 is provider level desirability). Obviously on the site the scores 5 to 10 are greyed out since it’s not possible to award those. 
2) Interest: 1 to 10. This is an indication of whether the client is able to hold a conversation on anything other than his desire to get off. 
3) Communication: -10 to 10. An evaluation of his opening enquiry. ‘Hey’ gets a minus 10 score. Dick pics -11 which actually throws the system and deletes the client’s profile. The administrators are trying to fix that. Clients: don’t send dick pics if you want to keep your profile on the system.
4) Kindness: 1 to 3. The score used to go up to 10 but it never got used. 
5) Hygiene : 1 to 10. This score has a multiplier. It’s worth 2X the other scores when calculating the overall rating.
6) Ease of use: 1 to 10. Includes aspects like does he arch his back or just lie there like a sack of potatoes. (Yes I’m thinking of you- yesterday’s client…you score 1 on this).
7) Ability: 1 to 6. Not much is expected tbh. 
8). Defrayment: 1 to 10. Does he pay without haggling and how much is tipped. 
These 8 scores: or the D.I.C.K.H.E.A.D rating for short all add up over time to give us an indication of how suitable the client is to be seen. 
The system is hosted in the British Virgin Islands…so there’s no hassle with data protection. If any clients are wondering why they often get no reply from providers it could be they need to work on their Dickhead rating.
