17 stone atm. A bit heavy and had to buy a 36" jeans but i'll put that down to good living and feeding from a good woman.
I'm not giving a fk. My fighting weight has been around 16 1/2 for the past 15 or so years.
I've put an inch or so on around the waist but that is because i've sat on my rse watching the sun go down with a can of tennents on tour with the caravan for the past 3 or 4 months.
Wgaf! Certainly not my wee woman :smile:

Ive lost a stone since new year when I was at my heaviest 14'2.
Nriw seem stuck around the 13"2 mark. I want to get into the 12's but the last couple of pounds are being stubborn.

Keep going it comes off it chunks, it seems to plateau for a while now and then

I couldn't get a leg in a 32 now! I'm now at a 38 waist. Any bigger and I'll be shopping at Big and Tall!
Big and tall or short and fat?
I found an old pair of Levi's in my mas from when I was about 21 32 waist 32 leg quite slim, they fitted perfectly! :50:

I hate and detest you with an unbounded passion, you vile creature of unmentionably foul personal habits.
Just sayin' 🙂
Believe it or no I used to be a 40 waist and 17 stone around 2 years ago. I'm now 36 waist and 14 stone and I didn't loose the weight with diets but with working all the time. I eat a lot of fatty foods and am classed as big boned lol and il never be thinner to where I am now. You can't beat a good set of love handles.

How dare you! I'm not short!!
Few laps of your massive new warehouse and you wont be far off ;-)
The practise of losing weight is tough. Really tough for some. You're trying to fight the subconscious which is no small task. The theory is easy. What's depressing is how many people get stuck on the theory bit as well with various diets and fads and false info. Detox this and cut out that. It's all rubbish. Dr Karl Kruszelnicki on the only sentence you need to know in order to maintain a healthy weight? "Eat food, mostly plants, not too much."
That's the only theory you need know. Putting it into practise however, mind-explodingly hard. It takes about all you've got just to do it for a bit. And then what? You've got to keep doing it? FOREVER? Jeeeeezus.
kris has the same experience as me. My most effective diet is working like a dog. You can more or less eat what you like if you can barely walk by the end of the day.

I suppose it's why the benefits crowd are so reliably overweight. Imagine spending your entire day infront of the TV in the room next door to the fridge. I'd be dead inside a year.

Big house was just capping off gas. Hurt arm and back. Was one step from top. 6' drop before a full day of graft in Saturday. 30kw heating load plus DHW.
Fad diets are complete rubbish. The only way to loose weight is to eat less and move more simples
Sadly its more likely you would just be an obese burden on the nhs for the next 20 years. Its time we started culling.

You would have to be unemployed first Ray and rely on hand outs neither of which sound like they are in your future. Obesity however, given the cheese and wine suffice to say its not impossible.
