Problems from belly?

[young gain]

Do you have these problems from a belly?

This is my first poll and I hope I did it correct :confused:

[fatdragon]

no I suffer from none!

[Omniscient]

Nope me neither, but of course some of us has just started...

[bellywish]

I used to have lower back pain but since lifting weight, strengthening my back muscles, I'm virtually pain free. Now getting a belly pain is another thing but it's from overeating....haha

[Fat_jack101]

Well I have knee pain but that isn't from my belly. I used to play baseball, and let me tell you sliding hurts. lol. Also I was the pitcher. So I twisted my legs alot, it helped me gain muscle in my legs. So most of my weight is upper body, I dont have much fat on my legs. But baseball did a number on my knee.

[jellydoughnut]

Well I keep active, mostly a little dancing, and that keeps me pain free.

[erik13]

none of those things, but ever since I passed 280 i can't jog let alone run.I don't care though, I hate running.

[BishopboyCA]

I don't suffer from any of those, but i do have a problem finding pants that fit and running. My gut's doing great, now that i'm between 280 and 285.

I've been having problems with sleep apnoea (if that's how you spell it!)

See a doctor.

I, personally, had ass pain, until I got fat. I cracked my tailbone (or something) when I was six and it hurt me all the way until I was twelve, when I breached the 180 pound point. lol.

[bigkid]

I have seen a doctor! That's how i knew i had it! :(

[Big_fat_kiddo]

Hm... no problems, except that my ass hurts when i got to sit on it for a long time because i got allmost no fat covering it :(

[bigkid]

That isn't belly related!

[Big_fat_kiddo]

who cares about that :p

Its fat related isnt it?


and.. because Matuso said something about asses that hurt.. i tought of posting my problem with that aswell..

[bigkid]

lack of fat-related!

[Omniscient]

So does anyone care if it isn't fat or belly related?
This IS general discussion... And to ALWAYS talk about fat and gaining on this site gets to boring too...

[Big_fat_kiddo]

Thats what he said, so i replied that i have asspains asswell, but for a different reason.... ;)

You gotta stay a little active on the boards.. and like what Sephyre said.. there is a lot of the same around here, just browse trough the forums, you will find atleast a few posts that match the newer ones.

[buffetbelly]

I'm in my late 40's and have none of these.

[MCR Fan]

While I havn't really gained much to gte knee pain, I put it down. My bag for school weighs 25-30 pounds, and my knees hurt all the tiome now. ONe of them locks up too. It sucks.

[supersarge250]

I had a little back pain, as I picked up 20 pounds real quick. It was lower back, but that's pretty much gone now, so I have to say, I'm not suffering from any of the listed items at the moment.

[LrgrThnLf]

My bag for school weighs 25-30 poundsBe sure your bag is a sensible choice for carrying that much weight.

Ie. Something you sling over one shoulder with that much weight probably not a good thing.

If you're already using a backpack, make sure you fit the straps appropriately, and if it has a waist strap (and it reaches around :) ) ... use it..

If that fails, considered a flight-crew style "carry on" type bag with wheels and telescoping handle?

If you have no choice in using a bag that has to go on one side or other, alternate the sides..

[Big_fat_kiddo]

You your school lockers to put the books in you dont need to make homework, but you do need the next day.. so you wont have to carry them along. ;)

[Matuso]

A rolling backpack is social suicide.

I'd use the lockers, but here's the problem: our school lockers are exactly ten inches cubed. When they built the lockers, the books were all nine inches square. However, we now have books that are 14 inches tall, or short but 11 inches long, etc. So lockers are out for me. Add to that the fact that we have just six minutes between classes and that the campus is about half a mile in all directions from the centre, not counting the PE district...you just don't have time. Putting books in at lunch is out of the question; there are 3000 people at the school, and only about fifteen places to buy food (that's 200 people per stand). Lunch is fourty minutes long. If you don't get out of your class early there's going to be a huge line.

In summary:

Whine whine whine (but it felt good).

[MCR Fan]

Yeah I have a two shoulder bag thingy. lol The locker thing wouldn't really work too well cause my locker is on the otehr side of school then my classes. But Wednesday and Thursdays I leave some books at school. We have 'Block Days' where we only have half of our classes. Wednesday I only have Spanish, Study, English, and Art, so I only bring one book unless my english teacher says we need our books. So it ain't that bad the last few days. Mondays the worst cause I;m really tired. lol

Thats how my school is. Its overcrouded but they STILL let people build houses around here and people move in with 7 kids. lol

[erik13]

we have block scheduling too! Just thought I'd say that...

My book bag weighs like 15 lbs

According to our school, the weight of your bag should not exceed 1/3 of your body weight. For me that's 110 pounds!

[MCR Fan]

I WEIGH 110. lol

[erik13]

LOL. I can carry you on my back, ha.

[Matuso]

Then again, they're talking about normal people, who are relatively muscly. When you get really fat you gain some muscle and a lot of fat. So for a weight-to-muscle ratio, you're actually weaker, but you have a lot of weight so you have momentum (or lack of), and so you're hard to stop...or start.

I think.

Srry,just have to say;

3000?! :eek:

We're like 330 students in my school... And beacuse of that there are like 50 different schools in my town.
And for lunch we get from 1,5h to 2,h.

[Big_fat_kiddo]

at my old school we had 5123 students..
At the school im at now, its 80.. its a small school anyway with 7 classrooms :p its a new school, on an old location.. we are gonna move to a bigger school location next school year

So there's a big difference :D

[alagut]

knee pain is just a side-effect of the glorious belly

[chiomob]

no major problems. though as a former swimmer, i'm surprisingly buoyant these days. not to mention the fact that my old speedos are a wee bit tight....

i am, however, much lazier than i was before i gained the weight. an old friend of mine who i hadn't seen since i was 145-150 (and much more muscular) and i had a race a ways back. he was amazed how winded i was. got poked in the belly a few times after... :)

[Mace]

No problems yet, don't really see lung or liver problems bing belly related at all, I'm more worried about heart/artery issues and stuff like that.

[gooseface]

don't really see lung or liver problems bing belly related at all
Some people drink beer to help them gain. The liver filters alcohol and whatnot and excess amounts can be harmful, i.e. liver problems :).

There are 300 people in my class...296 to be exact [I feel proud because I'm 45th in class rank]

So my school, if the classes are roughly the same size, has about 1200 give or take.

[nascardude123]

I get lots of gas.... no, really.... wish I could stop it...

[yea_i_know_im_fat]

i have really bad back problems... have u ever had that feeling when where you feel like u wish u [B]never[B]had gained that weight? well i had that for a little bit but im really glad i did it all now!

[jaybear]

Haven't had any of those problems despite being 240 now and older than I either feel or look. But late in 2005 I suddenly got a really bad infection of the right kidney that caused the docs to yank it out. (The other one is doing just fine, thank you, per all the frequent tests.) It apparently was trigged by a glucose imbalance but they still can't explain the infection. Despite the advancements in medical science over the years, the official diagnosis from the surgeon was "Shit Happens"! Can you believe that? So I tend to listen well to but then take with many grains of salt or whatever, any suggestions that I should lose weight and not enjoy my fatness.

[BigZero]

i get a bit a of back aches, but thats usually after slouching for a few hours playing videogames :)

[free74chino]

I don't how the hell my reply got erased but this is mine again.
I used to suffer form a lot of backpain. This backpain kicked my ass and screwed up my schiatic nerve. I was out of work for two weeks and couldn't due much but lay down. To the extreme that i couldn't walk. I had to borrow my grandma's walker to help me attend to my toiletier necesities.
There was no medication to help aleviate the pain. I was taking 1 800 mg motrin pill but they were useless.
I spent a shit load of money going to a therapist for a year and a half but the pain persisted. Decided to take a different route and went to an acupuncturist and he made be better in three sessions. I had all these needles in my belly and face-to the point that i fell asleep on the table.
I still suffer from some moderate backpain but i've been able to handle it.
No knee problems yet-I'm hoping never to deal with it either!

[FatMike]

I don't how the hell my reply got erased but this is mine again.
Its on the previous page down the bottom..

[fatswedeboy]

I have major knee problems, since I passed 350, so I avoid walking as much as possible, never climb a stair and absolutely never jog or run. But I love my size so its worth it.
I also have fatty liver , according the doc, but thats mainly because I am fat, not from drinking, even though i have a few beers every day.

[TubbyGut]

No terrible pain, but I'll get the usual backache if I'm bending over for things all day long.

[Barnabas Collins]

I have major backpains, but thats from the play we're doing (I get to drag all these people on stage at different parts). But I've had no medical problems due to my little gut I think because I am very active.

[shazz]

i dont get any of these problems

[Toddle]

But not from my weight. From flipping over my bike's handlebars and having the bike land on my back a few years ago.

[blargh127]

No problems yet.. then again.. I'm skinny.. >_<
