It's windy out, better stay indoors mate. 8)
Actually, i'm allegedly overweight for my height, but i take a 28" waist in jeans so i can't be that porky can i? I do pretty manual work and i cycle to work every day. Bit upset at being labelled a tubster now 🙁
5'2, 60kg, 28" waist? How?
Er, i don't know - i'm guessing here 'cos my scales are shot!
I'll go and see if my scales are working - hang on!
I love chocolate and sossidge rolls
Nope 🙁
Suspect my guess about my weight is a bit off, Last time i weighed myself i was 9 stone and i think i may have suffered from some mental 'creep' 😳
Have you got massive guns and pins? Or a really big head? 😀
Medium sized head 😆
I really need to get weighed again before i enter one of these threads!
STW in reflection of society shocker. 🙄
I love chocolate and sossidge rolls
Yes, but you just admire them rather than eat them.
The right side of 70kg here. 😀
I have absolutely no idea. Hang on, I'm just about to nip downstairs for another beer. I'll use the wife's scales.....
Nah, I couldn't fit in the jug.
98kg here at 6ft 4 im just a big bloke not fat

70kg here.. STW has made me fat.. 🙁
Completely average; 5' 10.5", 70 kilos, and 43 - the modal age for STW
I don't work in IT though 😆

6'3" Currently 93kg but yo-yo between 88 and 97kg. My diet is constant - fairly healthy but eat too much - but the amount I cycle isn't. My scales say I'm overweight at 24% body fat 🙁

Of course it is. Fat people are natures comedians.
My docter has told me for my weight i should be 8ft tall
I have no idea what I weigh. At a guess I'd say half a cow, or possibly 3 or 4 bags of cement. Maybe 2,367 mini pork pies would be a better indication?
Mmmmmmmmmmmmmm pork pies
it's a lifestyle choice....
18st 10lbs here, standing at 6ft 3inch you lot are just a bunch of light weights, according to the stats i am officially obese. But with a large frame and broad shoulders I only have a bit of extra padding, but have low blood pressure and a resting heartbeat of 45 bpm.
So i blow a rasberry at official measurement type numbers as i reach accross to my Friday morning bacon, black pudding and tinned tomato sandwich on crusty bread. yum yum and yum.
it's a lifestyle choice....
Yup. A delicious lifestyle choice.
non biffers eat delicious food too, just not quite as much...
6'2" 85 kilos.

Quantity > Quality
All I'd say is that the race whippets who fly past me on the climbs, better get out of my bloody way once we get to the top. Because gravity is on my side from that point on skinny boy! And lets face it, its more fun that way round 🙂
I always let the chubbers go first down hill, makes for a nice soft landing if you bin it 😆
BMI is bollox though - http://www.maa.org/devlin/devlin_05_09.html
Like he says in that article, BMI is a good indicator of fatness for people who lead a relatively sedentary lifestyle.
When people pick outliers for whom it doesn't work, to say that it is absurd, they're almost always picking people like professional athletes, action film stars / body builders etc. who have vastly more training and muscle than your average person, and don't lead a sedentary lifestyle. When it comes down to it however, pretty much no one else does that much training, eg. the once a week rugby players etc. who moan about BMI because 'I play rugby, so I have loads of muscle mass', are probably also bulked up somewhat because they drink tons and eat loads of kebabs after every match.
And really, has anyone ever met anyone skinny and fit who moans about how bad BMI is?

yup, anorexics who have to meet a certain BMI to be granted leave by their psychiatrist 😉
Some days I look down and I can't even see my toes!!! 😯 Damned shoes!
