What you did today

[Llyranor]

Tell me about it. It's like a freaking yo-yo.

[Killian Kalthorne]

And it doesn't even do any tricks like "Walk the Dog." It sucks!

[Enoch]

Goin' metric: I'm 178cm tall, and weigh somewhere in the area of 90Kg.

 

The weight figure has being slowly creeping up over the past few years. My cooking is relatively healthy, but I tend to go out for less-healthy/too-large lunches at work too often. (The giant burritos at Chipotle are a particular weakness.) Also, moving in with my now-wife didn't help my diet-- it's easy to deny myself something (e.g., "I don't feel like cooking, so I'll just eat some crackers and carrots for dinner"), but I don't want to push that kind of austerity on her, so we end up eating more take-out.

 

I am going to get together with the usual crowd of middle-aged bureaucrats for some basketball after work today, though. I really suck at it (particularly ball-handling), but I compensate by being 10+ years younger than most of the other guys, which corresponds to advantages in energy level, endurance, and knee health. Other than my walk to and from the subway every day (3/4ths of a mile each way), this is most of the exercise I get. I don't have the patience for exercise-for-exercise's-sake; unless there's something productive (like yard work, or walking to work) or fun (like basketball) involved, I have trouble getting over the feeling that it's a colossal waste of time and energy that could've otherwise been put to some useful purpose.

Regarding my (recent) ex she was well overweight ( by about 20 lbs), and had been chided as such by previous boyfriends who'd tried to harass her into vicious diets.

 

I simply told her I loved her however she was, and she shrank by about 15 lbs without any effort at all. Bloody weird.

 

*thinks*

 

I guess she'll get all fat again now. Hah hah.

Im going to assume thats a typo and you dont in fact weigh

366.496 lbs.

 

[Killian Kalthorne]

I wish it was a typo.

 

What is even sadder is that I am a better sprinter than my roommate who is a lot closer to his optimal weight for his height.

Don't sweat it Killian, I believe in you pal. If you need any help or suggestions you can pm me and I'll give you a full on plan to follow.

[taks]

i revise my last statement...

 

oof, hades.

 

my "optimal weight" would probably be somewhere around 210-215 lbs., though the brilliant FDA charts all say something like 185. when i was down to 205 this summer (the taks patented stress diet), i looked almost anorexic to everyone that knows me. i have a large frame with very wide shoulders (something like a 46" chest even when i weighed only 190).

[Killian Kalthorne]

The FDA charts say I should be around 165 to 170 in pounds for my height.

[Trenitay]

I really need to gain some weight, but I never seem to be able to.

[Killian Kalthorne]

You can have some of mine. Plenty to share. Bring your own knife.

[Walsingham]

Simple. Begin your day with doughnuts. At lunchtime have a cheese and meat based sandwich. With a pint of guinness. For dinner eat plenty of pasta, with red wine, then go to the pub for a pint or two of ale. Finish the night with some cookies, and a whisky.

 

Granted, you may not find teh above adds weight. It will, however, infallibly make you happy.

[Calax]

6'1" 200ish lbs (haven't been near a scale for about 9 months but I've dropped a ****ton of weight because I only eat like one sandwhich for an entire day and thats' it.

Careful there, Wals. You're contributing to the delinquency of a minor. Checking awsomeness's profile, he's more than 5 years shy of the legal drinking age in most U.S. states.

 

(Note: Age is probably also a reason for his rather odd height-weight ratio. Growth during one's teen years tends not to be particularly consistent; it's not unusual for people to shoot up in height quickly, then fill out that frame over the ensuing couple of years.)

[mkreku]

I'm 6 foot 3 inches, and somewhere around 165 pounds, so I'm pretty light for my height

No. You're like.. 12 years old so you're normal. When you get above 20+ you'll be around 180-200 lbs for sure.

yup. i graduated high school with the same height and weight. within 2 years i was around 200 lbs. (though still thin because i was an avid weight-lifter at the time). in fact, during my heavy lifting days i peaked at 215, and an extremely low fat percentage. then i stopped lifting... but kept eating, and drinking, and being lazy otherwise.

[taks]

hmmm.. an interesting though, i'm 35 in dog pounds (actually, i'm down to just under 34 in dog pounds now, and holding steady).

Hasmik?

[Guard Dog]

Right now I'm drinking a big glass of a little lemonade and a lot of Makers Mark, pecking at my laptop, and watching Maury Povich. I'd put a DVD in but I dont want to rile the dogs and it just hurts too much to get up.
