    Me I'm 15st 11lbs, I'm 28 and 6'1''. I know I'm over weight but I'm doing better than I was a few years ago, I was tipping the scales at 23st 7lbs.

    What about yourself?

    I think so, but according to BMI I'm quite well below overweight.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,933 ✭✭✭holystungun9

    Yes. 5 7' and 200lb. Losing it quickly through swimming though.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,359 ✭✭✭✭kneemos


    I think I am.Therefore I am.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,660 ✭✭✭greedygoblin


    I used to be indecisive. Now, I'm not so sure.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 32,513 ✭✭✭✭Lucyfur


    I'm not fat I'm curvy.

    Nope. Don't require BMI or any of that stuff to tell me either. Look in a mirror, that works. Though having seen women who were actually thin look in a mirror and see "fat" and blokes who were well porky look in a mirror and see "well built", maybe not and YMMV.

    Many worry about Artificial Intelligence. I worry far more about Organic Idiocy.

    I've a wee bit of a belly and could definitely stand to lose a bit.

    Cake, and grief counseling, will be available at the conclusion of the test

    I'm a fat person in a thin persons body :)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,221 ✭✭✭A_Sober_Paddy


    I'd consider myself to be a little bit tubby...But most people would consider my thin...Maybe I have been looking at too many men's health cover models for my own good


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,786 ✭✭✭KungPao

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,844 ✭✭✭Honey-ec


    Nope. 5' 7", 9.5 stone and size 8-10. I love my bod.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,122 ✭✭✭BeerWolf


    Eeyup - had high blood pressure, weighing in over 100.6kg - been ordered by the doc. to lose it, was last month. I'm currently at 93.4kg.

    Progress! Goal's to hit 82kg before Xmas. Then to pile it back on come Xmas dinner.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,080 ✭✭✭✭Maximus Alexander


    6'2", ~14 stone. Yeah a little bit. But then I was 12 stone 6 months ago, and 14 stone 8 months before that. I'm a weirdo.

    Yep.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,496 ✭✭✭Boombastic


    Nope I'm not, but I have noticed an increasingly worring trend where peoples necks are the same thickness as their head


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,388 ✭✭✭KingOfFairview


    I think so, but according to BMI I'm quite well below overweight.

    I'm not sure how seriously to take BMI, it doesn't take build into account


  • Site Banned Posts: 257 ✭✭Driveby Dogboy

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,425 ✭✭✭MonstaMash

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,420 ✭✭✭✭Galwayguy35


    I'm 5ft7" and 79kg but don't regard myself as overweight.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 26,899 ✭✭✭✭BBDBB

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,473 ✭✭✭Wacker The Attacker
