    That's a big boy. I am not sure he should be on the top bunk.

    Hey - don't knock the grabber - lol. I'm 200lbs and use one all the time. Those things are great!

    Yeah, I use it in the mornings when I haven't limbered up yet. A guy more than double my size...I couldn't imagine how inconvenient everything would seem.

    On the other hand, we've all made our choices...

    If properly dressed out and iced down should last for a few days, but I'd recommend a good Coleman cooler and fillet that sucker.

    The heaviest I've ever been was 365, and I slept in a top bunk of a Columbia while training for 6 weeks, 6 years ago and it was fine. Today, thankfully, I'm down to 270 and still dropping. Idk HOW I ever let myself get that big and still drove a truck. Let alone one who weighs 500. Or nearly two if my current weight😳.

    I guess we can all let it spin out of control at times. Good for you for the loss, I'll bet you feel a lot better.
