Ok how much do you measure and weigh?

[Castout]

I'm not a tall guy I'm 175 cm tall (5.74 feet)

and I used to weigh 75 kg or 165 lb though I don't look that big at all.
Some weeks ago I cut down my jogging routine due to injured knee while not changing my eating habits and when I checked on the scale my weight rose to 78 kg! or 172 lb.

Worried about being obese and gaining even more weight I decided to go on diet. And after about 3 weeks with 2 weeks serious diet by just having a single starfruit as my lunch meal and no breakfast(had only fruit salad for lunch on the first week). . . .and returning to a minimum 3 times a week jogging routine for 3 weeks . . .I have managed to shave some weight.

This morning when I checked on the scale I weigh just 72.5 kg or almost 160 lb.

I'm planning to go to 72 kg as now I already look pretty slim. Any less I would look too skinny.

I realize it will take permanent change of eating habit to keep me in this range.




And so what's your situation with your weight and body mass index?

Good luck with that. I am about 35 pounds down and no "dieting" just a lifestyle behavour change.

Good luck

[Castout]

Shaved 35 pounds? That's a lot! Congratulation! It's good to be healthy and safe

[Platapus]

35 since the first of the year. I am pretty proud of that.

Now only if I can survive the holidays without stuffing my face, I should be ok for next year.

Just a note mate, BMI is a horrible indicator of health. I have friends who are avid weightlifters and well built, but BMI says they are obese. So if you have a lot of muscle that might factor into it.

According to the BMI calculator, my weight is ok, but my height is way off.

I know what you mean in the last 3 weeks of my dieting we've had 2 birthday dinners to celebrate one of which a buffet dinner. I usually treat myself on weekend either Saturday or Sunday, nothing obsessive and I stop before feeling full. And stopping before feeling full or too full is the key imo. Of course if I knew I was going to go for an eating out I compensated by eating little in the noon.

Nobody said anything about going on diet for the ladies .

Whenever I do something and I believe when most men decided to do something it is for myself(themselves).

Women wear inconvenient dress which is either too delicate or revealing(thus inconvenient) and wear torturing high heels and go on diet so they will be pleasing to men but

Men wear good clothing, good watches and go on exercise and diet so that they feel good about themselves . It's never about to be seen but to feel good about yourself. So if men are comfortable wearing t-shirt and short they will because they are comfortable in them though the fabric and design may be chosen to suit their character. So men will wear their favorite clothing even if they go to deserted place because it shows who they are unlike most women who pick on occasions to dress up.

Makes me wonder how have you been living as a man Third Man (joke no offence)

I'm picky,,,, is that so wrong? I personally like girl #3.

[Sledgehammer427]

I'm 190.5 centimetres tall and I weigh 97.5 Kilos

(That's 6'3" and 215 pounds for the americans ((of which I am one)))

my BMI....
27
but I did a lot of weightlifting 5 years ago, I slowed and stopped about 3 years ago. I'm getting a little big in terms of sideways growth, but being so tall I'm kinda filling in.

As for the ideal woman, mine is neither of the three, because I'm already dating mine. That's what I call a win.

(I did, however, date a few in the national average range and I do say that it's nice to be able to hold a girl who not only retains heat but won't blow away on a windy day)

[antikristuseke]

6'3 and about 160lbs, cant be arsed to use the internets to find my bmi

No there's nothing wrong at all we are all picky.

Just that I know quite a few men with gigantic wallet who forced themselves to women

Big wallet tend to attract just a specific type of women

[kiwi_2005]
