Forget Adkins or jogging or dieting or any of that bullshit. If you want to loose some serious weight, grab yourself a chainsaw and start carving! I started at about 200lbs and after about 15 minutes of carving I think I'm down to about 45lbs.
This is just the first few cuts, on my very first log, so it should get better from here on out. I hollowed out the back of the log first and started on the head. I have to be careful not to make my v-cuts too deep since there's a questionable amount of solid wood on this log. It's pretty dry.
It's not much yet, but Gman, grab yourself a burger!
I'm going back out for a little more before I get cleaned up for the Haole Kats show at the Mai Kai. See you there!

Thanks Gman, I'm glad you've had something to eat. Yeah, Ben and I talked shop for a while in my garage and it was his hands that laid down the first chalk lines. No more carving tonight though, but I'm sure I'll get a few licks in tommorow morning. Chainsaws are heavy!

When you get in the zone you can go for hours, you won't want to put it down. You'll get impatient when you have to gas it up.

C'mon Gman, what did you delete? After dropping another 50% of my body weight, I've roughed out the eyes and nose. Lots, and lots to go. I wont bore everyone with more pics until I get further along.
Mahalo!

Lookin Good Finky, but it's a good thing you stopped when you did. There seems to be a missing upper lip. You need that to cover the white teeth and to smile. We'll fix that tomorrow so Bring it along too. (Don't always trust my drawing).
