b61fred Posted January 25, 2009 Share Posted January 25, 2009 Damn Rob! Your droppin weight pretty fast! When you said that you were on Atkins diet and eating a pound of smoked bacon a day and loosing weight I thought you were pulling my leg.. but the proof is here. Keep up the good work! And when I drop my b61 parts off to have them painted you can put that chrome on there too. Fred Quote 15 gears...no waiting!

So far I've dropped near 55 pounds in the last year but keeping it off is not easy as I bow to temptation readily. I am weak in that department. I just had a physical last week and my cholesterol is down to 457 from 493 so progress there too! Ahh, life is good!Rob Quote Plodding along with no job nor practical application for my existence, but still trying to fix what's broke.

Mike Posted January 25, 2009 Share Posted January 25, 2009 Hey Rob,I,m still playing with the same emblem. It's now ready for the plater. The studs are made from brass 1/4 wide by 1 inch long. I will use the nylon flat washers against the paint, also brass nuts. I'll try and post a photo soon. It must be nice to have a son or a daughter that will think enough of a father. My girl friend bought me a digital camera for christmas but i'm alittle skeptical about her buying me anything MACK yet. I'm not sure if she thinks enough of me even after dating me for almost 3 years in this May...... Oh yea... as you speak of a weight problem I believe everyone thinks they have one. As for me looking at my photo standing by my mack, you would not think of me as having a weight problem but I do also. I'm 185 and should be 155 because of my small frame. I border on being a diabetic . Its because I eat anything I want and when I want. I feel better when I eat lite and eat vegetables, no grease.mike Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/8083-lookie-here-what-momma-got-me/#findComment-29765 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greg Rider Posted February 1, 2009 Share Posted February 1, 2009 Rob, how many carbon credits do you go through when you start those trucks? Have you seen the recipe for the "bacon explosion" ?

Rob Posted February 1, 2009 Author Share Posted February 1, 2009 Rob, how many carbon credits do you go through when you start those trucks? Have you seen the recipe for the "bacon explosion" ?By starting them only at night, I do not expend any of my credits. In these tight budget times, the monitors are not allowed any overtime wages to watch me, so I take advantage.......Being Sunday today they are off also, so anything goes.Rob Quote Plodding along with no job nor practical application for my existence, but still trying to fix what's broke.
