Chubrocker may be on his death bed....

I've been chubrocker for a LOOOOONG time. Maybe about 15 years. However, I'm now down 40 lbs and most likely will drop another 5 lbs. I've started lifting weights and have become more healthy in mind and body. I've transformed my body and working at transforming my life. I feel a new moniker must come forth....but alas, no new names rise to the top. skinnyrocker doesn't fit.....but neither does keeping chubrocker. All the other kewl names are taken! LOL

Sounds cheesy and pathetic, but letting chubrocker moniker go is going to be tough.

Maybe you could keep it as a reminder of how far you've come and how hard you've worked. I have a tattoo I got when I was 18 and while I wouldn't get it now, it's a nice reminder about how much I've changed in the last 10 years.

Dude,just let it stick. I've ALWAYS been a big,big guy. I'm 6'5",255lbs. At one time,I was up to around 365lbs. I've pretty much always lifted weights since my wrestling & football days in school. I'm 44 yrs. old now,I don't do the power-lifting (Heavy weight,low reps) thing anymore. I ain't gotta a damn thing to prove by bench-pressin' 400+lbs anymore. I do light weight,high reps now. The way I lost over 130lbs.? Running. I run 6 days a week,5 miles a day.
But ALL my friends still call me by my nickname,even though I've shed well over 100lbs. My nickname? Sumo. It's been with me since I started wrestling at 13 yrs. old. They just! Won't! Stop!

Just let it ride......
