azshtr Report post Posted August 17, 2012 I'm not getting anything for this post, it is just FYI... I'm putting this out there because various health companies have been mentioned... Isagenix is a company that sells a healthy detox type of nutrition program. It is a network marketing company and no I don't belong. I do use the products though as I get them as part of my job. I have seen so many that have lost SERIOUS pounds in a short time that I'm mentioning it here just as a FYI. I have documented many that have shred over 100 pounds in 8 months to 2 years and look healthy as heck, including this years weight loss winner... www.craigcoleman.ca he lost the weight in 8 months if I remember right. I know the owners very well and have nothing but good things to say about them. They are based in Chandler but operate internationally. Again I get nothing from this, just an option for others to consider. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Completely different boots but feel very similar on the foot. Danner is a touch heavier... IM on track. Im ready to start hiking a bit slowly... Not to hijack the thread but lots of people have had problems with the Pronghorns wearing out and stiching comming apart. I bought a pair two years ago and have not had that problem. They are plenty light and give good support (I'm 5'10~180) and they broke in the first 100 feet I wore them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Paid $179 for them and this is what they looked like after 5 days hunting the Superstitions. Absolute junk! http://forums.coueswhitetail.com/forums/topic/28208-under-armour-hunting-boots-reviews/ I now use Danner Desert TFX® Rough-Out GTX® Military Boots for unisulated desert hunting. http://www.danner.com/boots/desert-tfxr-rough-out-gtxr-military-boots.html Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Flatlander Report post Posted August 21, 2012 VJ -Can you tell me what it is called or where you got it? I have never pulled a calf before but this morning about a mile from home I started to notice it, and when I tried to hit the gas it started giving me grief, now I can hardly walk.

POB Report post Posted August 21, 2012 Started out at 218 Aug 1. wanting to get to 165 by next dec. 14. Climbiing stairs, 8 flights daily, biking 6 mi. 3 times a week. cut out most carbs, all breads, lots of salads and dark green veggies. Blehh... Tipped the scale at 211 this morning. Its slow going but it took 61 years to get this big, if I get to my desired weight in under 18 monthes I'll be golden. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
