Uhhh... according to the BMI I'm 'overweight' with a BMI of 25.1... even though I'm less than 10% body fat. My 32 inch pants insist I'm not fat.

So... yeah. I'm 'overweight' at six foot and 185 pounds because I have a few mid sized muscles.

That's what you get when you use a chart created during the great depression.

According to the same chart Justin Houston is obese.

Lower 30's - 5'10.5'', 171 lbs. Used to weigh 195 when I was 23. When you don't work out, you lose weight. I sit on my ass all day. Not sure how people get fat? I mean I'm fatter, but skinny fatter.

It took a long time to figure out, but I eventually learned that I gain two pounds per year like clockwork. It's happened pretty consistently since I was in college. So I have to occasionally push back on it.

Not fat. But when i do fatten up, it's the ****ing worst.

I get "skinny fat". When i start packing it on, it doesn't distribute well. It all goes to my gut and titties.

So you end up with this skinny frame with a gut and titties. Worst ****ing thing ever.

Been working out 5 days a week since Dec of last year. Now i can see my abs.

Can't allow myself to ear poorly because i can't carry the fat well.

[2bikemike]

I graduated High School 5'10" and whopping 140 lbs. I don't think you can get much skinnier. Went to boot camp and came out 20 lbs heavier after 8 weeks.

I stayed around 160 until I turned 30. Crept up to 180 through out my 30's.

After turning 40 I continued that slow climb until I matched my current fighting weight of 200 lbs. at 57 years old. I think the perfect weight for me is about 185. So I am on a quest to drop the 15 lbs.

If genetics are any indication, I'd just get skinny fat to the point that I look like a skinny guy who's 20 months pregnant... I've been +10-15 pounds before, so not a huge deal, but noticeable enough to want to do something about it.

[mr. tegu]

No and yes. But at 5’11” I typically can fluctuate +/- 5 lbs around 172 lbs just sort of depending on the diet but being in shape it doesn’t really matter much. Being that we like to indulge at times we have found that the key is to weigh ourselves every day to avoid complacency with eating bad day after day.

It is the truth. It was changed so that school lunches could get healthier options. But we starve kids in the process. A 6-4 football player gets 3 chicken tenders a 3oz scoop of potatoes or vegetables and an apple. Yeah, that will fill him up until practice.

Where did you start at?

Diet? Exercise? Or Both?

I'm only 5' 7" and weighed 274. I looked like a pumpkin with a head on it. I don't look 200 as I have a big, wide chest and 36" waist and a flat bony ass. I don't have any loose skin so happy about that.

[ThaVirus]

Yeah, I’ve tried eating healthier, salads, fruits, lots of water, but I think I’m just not getting enough exercise.

You're just taking in too many calories.

I'm not trying to be that douche giving weight loss advice online, but just think about reducing your portion sizes. Eat whatever you'd normally eat, just less of it. You'll be hungry at first but that's OK. After a while the smaller portions will become more filling and you'll see the weight start to come off. You legitimately don't even need to set foot in a gym to lose weight.

They always say 40 starts the slowing of your metabolism. I am 61 and here until last couple of years I worked outside in the field now I am more and more a desk jockey. I bring lunch from home very light and try to stick to that. Also I have found as I aged my consumption of food has decreased. Good luck try not to let it get away from ya. My Mother had weight issues later in her life and it was really a pain for her so I have worried id get that metabolism but I got my Dads instead.

Don't worry about the weight, work on that tan man! ROFL

[CoMoChief]

For my height, "medical professionals" say I should be 180lbs.

If I was 180, I would look like a starved child from Africa.

I've lost a lot of weight within the last year. Thanks to a bad kidney infection that hospitalized me for a few days around before Xmas last yr, while I was in the hospital I got the damn superflu that was going around. Almost fuckin died, I lost about 50 lbs in about a span of a week. Barely had strength to walk around, chills, sweats, bloody piss, having the most horrible urges to piss but couldn't, and when I did it was like pissing fire, puking, diarrhea, no appetite whatsoever, headaches from being dehydrated due to the nonstop uncontrollable shits...bout the worst thing imaginable. Ass was sore from just being on the toilet 12hrs a day.

Kept it off though! Still hovering around 210. Been watching what I eat, got off of the brown paper bag/soda diet and been working out a tad. I've always had a high metabolism but when you eat like shit and aren't active it can destroy your body.

[eDave]

Don't worry about the weight, work on that tan man! ROFL

I don't know why I don't. Work at home, pool. Just don't like laying out and doing nothing.

The past 2 years have been shitty in terms of fitness. After maintaining 5'10 185ish with a muscular tone for years I just got lazy and fucked around and went up to 223. The past year I've lost weight but Jesus Everytime I get to 190, something happens and fucks up my routine and I gain weight again. I'm 202 now and in the process of building a small home gym because I'm moved and there's no fucking way I'm paying $50 for a membership at genesis gym. My last gym was $25 a month, no contract and was the best gym Ive ever been to overall.

I'm 6'2" and when I got out of the Army I was 184 and in great shape. Got used to eating well (not really) and ballooned up to 255 at one point. Also, during this time, I was diagnosed with type II diabetes - runs in my family.

About 15 years later I suddenly lost 65 pounds and have stayed there for the last 5-6 years. Don't really "over eat" any longer - but don't "under eat" either… :thumb:

I wish I could but I swear to you, I'm telling the truth. I noticed, one day that I was feeling a little "better", and after 4 more weeks I had lost some 19 pounds and it just kept falling off.

Went to my Doctor and, at first, he thought it was cancer. Ran the test and nope - fine. He ran a series of additional tests (blood and thyroid and the like) and I was fine. The weight kept falling off. I was doing NOTHING to help it along. Absolutely nothing.

Hopped on the scale one day and I had went from 255 pounds to 204 pounds….still no explanation but what the hell, right? Don't look a gift horse in the mouth… :thumb: :)

Today's weigh in? 190 pounds. ???? beats me.

[Unclesam]

5'11" and 187lbs. I lift several days a week and most of it is muscle. Everyone that guesses my weight always guesses way low usually like 15-20lbs low. I wasn't super strict with my diet though and started getting a double chin despite having abs. I haven't stepped on the scale real recently but I guarantee it's down probably ~180.

Drank probably 3-4 sodas per week. Decided to cut out soda. It's actually been really easy to do. I just drink coffee and tea instead. Black coffee and unsweetened tea. No problem. I also was drinking several beers / mixes per week. I've limited myself to ONE on Friday night till I'm happy with the pudge lost.

It's kind of all had a snoball effect the last couple weeks. I've drank more water as a result and became more disciplined to not eat ANY junk in the past couple weeks. I also had a habit of eating before bed and completely cut that out and as a result I'm hungrier in the morning so back to scrambling eggs.

Wow, do you disappear when you turn sideways?:D

Eh, I'm definitely a thin guy, but it doesn't take much to start looking flabby. I'm mostly a nerdy guy with a desk job (though I do ski and hike a lot), so I won't be winning any arm wrestling contests, and fat takes up a lot more space than muscle. If I hit 190, I look noticeably "puffy" in comparison.

That's really the biggest issue with defining "fat" by weight though. One of my best friends was a shot put and hammer thrower at K-State. He was a giant slab of muscle. But according to all the BMI charts, he was morbidly obese. ROFL

[Discuss Thrower]

I thought I was fat as a 5'11 175lb 18 year old.

If only that bastard could see himself then as a 6'0.5 220lb'er now.

[BWillie]

only in America do we not think we are fat, when we are fat. make excuses. if you don't like the BMI, go get your body fat tested. get dunked underwater and do that body fat test. you will be fucking fat. if you come back less than 15% body fat. then you can say you aren't fat . but you will be fatter than that

I don’t know why someone hasn’t engineered an intestinal parasite that helps with weight loss but can easily be killed and passed when you meet your target weight.

6'1" about 265.
I could/should probably drop about 40lbs and I'd be pretty content with that.

haven't really actively tried to lose any; just changed up what I eat and how much I drink and dropped about 8lbs. I guess if I were to add in some moderate exercise I could do something about it. But right now, I have a mountain of stuff going on, to the point I'm so stressed I can't even sleep most nights. hopefully some things will work themselves out in a couple of months and that stress will be gone.

I know I'm the pot calling the kettle black until 7 months ago.

I quit smoking cigarettes the first time I tried. Quit smoking weed and doing drugs first time I tried. So I had the willpower but I chose to spend a DECADE being really really fat.

I use to think the same thing. It's a natural occurring feeling. I got enough shit going on in my life, I'm not adding trying to lose some weight to that stress. Its a normal feeling that you need to fight against.

If I can do it after so long and being 59 now, I think anyone can lose weight.

[Randallflagg]

you know this is not normal, Right? You need to get a second opinion or third till they find the cause. I dealt with a lot of Chrons deisease patients. Lots of parasites in the intestines can interfere with metabolism. There is a scientific reason. Find it.


Of course it's not "normal". I've had every test you can name off….Wife is a former MSN RN. She was as concerned as anyone. Everything comes out fine. I feel GREAT! It's not as if I was "sickly" or anything. Hell, I'm in my 70s.

Guess that weird shit just happens when you get "old"….. :)

[Hog's Gone Fishin]

I need to lose a few pounds and it bothers me a lot. I started attending the gym a few weeks ago and keep on a healthy diet. Now I had to take homemade low-calorie food even at work .I ordered sprcial containers for that. Luckily my wife is a great cooker.

Welcome to chiefs Planet!

Overweight, up to around 354 last time I checked.

Someone please help....

[FloridaMan88]

5’9”, 138 lbs (37 years old).

I do a version of the 5/2 fasting eating plan... regular eating on Fridays/Saturdays, <400 calories on Sundays and then <700 calories on Mondays through Thursdays.

I lost about 60 pounds two years ago when I started on this eating plan and I’ve been able to keep it off.

As long as you make sure to maximize your protein intake (and minimize sugar) on the low calorie intake days it is manageable.

True.
stress, and time (another excuse).
I leave for work at 7am; get home around 5:30 or 6; work is nutty all day non-stop; been house hunting the last 3 months and have looked at 68 houses and offered on 8 different ones to no avail. Trying to move before December.;. some nights by the time I get home, eat dinner and clean up, it's 7:30 or 8:00pm, and I'm usually in bed around 9 or 930. Just super fatigued the last year or so. and two weeks ago we found out my dad might be on the verge of being diagnosed with cancer (so, all that worry as well).Still pending some results of tests.

hell, I'm a motorcyclist and usually do about 12-15k miles per year, and I haven't even started my bike since early early April let alone ride it.

right now, my life is list trying to jam 10lbs of crap in a 5lb bucket.
lol


no excuse; I'm sure people do it all the time (finding time to exercise); but I just don't think i could do it right now with my fatigue level.

6'1" and currently weighing in at 157 lbs. I was 215ish 2 years ago.
UPDATE: Scale was out of whack, actually at 174lbs, which is right around where I've been since last fall so that's a relief. Was a bit stunned to see 157 yesterday.

[FloridaMan88]

What's your goal weight?

Initially I was focused more on getting in a healthy BMI range, than a specific weight #, my BMI now is about 20, in the normal range so that is where I am maintaining my weight.

I eat a "regular" (or slightly above "regular") intake of calories on Friday/Saturday, about 2,500-2,700 calories so between that increased intake and the 5 days of decreased caloric intake, my weight has maintained at the 138-140 range.

[DanT]

6' 2", 266 pounds this morning, for a BMI of 34.2, which is obese. I've lost 25 pounds since July 1. About 10 years ago, I went from about 295 down to 195, but I put most of that weight back on. Now I'm trying to take a good chunk of the excess weight off, doing the same things I did before, which is being careful with my diet and jogging a lot. Fortunately, my health is otherwise good, and my jogging has been going very well. In the past 4 weeks, according to my Garmin Forerunner 235 watch, I've racked up 164 miles. I jog slow and usually walk about a mile midway in my longer runs, to drink a bottle of water. I'm lucky because I enjoy jogging and now I have this fun little watch helping me keep track of distance, pace and other things, like sleep quality, which is important for losing weight. The watch estimates my VO2 Max as in the top 10% for men my age, and I feel pretty good about my aerobic fitness.
In the next week or so, I should dip below my driver's license weight (265 pounds). I'd like to get my BMI under 30 (233 pounds) before my next birthday in December. If I avoid any serious injuries, that should be do-able.

I'm down 70-75 since March 2017 and feel great. I want to lose the last 25 pounds and I'll be ripped. Close to under 200 for first time in 16 years.


That's awesome! Congratulations, scho63!

I was working out hard for several months before my vacation i took this summer but after my vacation i've had very little motivation.


I need to get a new kayak the one i bought before my vacation was wrapped around a rock in the Rio Grande and i couldn't muster enough strength to hang onto it and got swept away by the current FML that was a sonofabitchin of a day.

Damn.

I guess if it makes you happy and healthy.

I was like 6 feet and 145 lbs until I was about 28 and I hated it. I actually went on a high protein/high fat diet where I'd consume about 6000-8000 calories per day. When you cut the carbs and shit that's a LOT of eating.

It worked. Put on an additional 30 lean pounds in less than 6 months.

I wish I had done it 10 years earlier. I hated being skinny.

[luv]

4 years ago, I lost 90 lbs. Then, I met my boyfriend, got pregnant, and fell back into old eating habits. Not quite back to where I was before, but close. Trying to watch my portions and finally able to get to the gym 3 days per week. It won't come off as quickly as it did last time, but slow and steady wins the race sometimes.

[AndChiefs]

Labeled myself as fat and I do care. 6’3” and 225-230ish. Down about 10-15 pounds. Playing weight was 185ish. Would love to at least get down below 200 again.

[old_geezer]

I turned 72 early this year. I am 6' tall and weighed 240. I was 195 when I graduated from high school and 205 straight out of basic training when I was in the best shape of my life. I did fine till I retired and then I let myself go to hell. Early this Spring I realized if I didn't do something I wouldn't be alive much longer to enjoy retirement.
I started walking and worked up to 3 miles a day. (I have arthritis in both knees and if I walk any farther they give out on me). I cut sweets, chips, and bread out of my diet and also red meat for the most part. Chicken, turkey, fish, and some pork are my meat dishes.
I have been walking 3 miles daily now for over two months and my weight is 207. My goal was 200 and I think I'll make it by the end of summer. I really don't want to go much if any lower. I once went on a massive diet and hit 185 and all my friends kept asking me if I was sick. I really did look emaciated. :D

I didn’t have anything happen or something triggered to allow me to try my best. I guess I just finally realized it was all excuses made by me to myself.

Classic Cheifsplanet poll. 75% of American men are overweight, 33% of American men are obese, but of course Chiefsplanet is full of skinny dudes with huge cocks that run 4.2 40s.

Yes, America is fat but 75% overweight?

Ridiculous. Unless your definition of overweight is not having an 8 pack.

[DanT]

Yes, America is fat but 75% overweight?

Ridiculous. Unless your definition of overweight is not having an 8 pack.

In 2013-14, according to the CDC, 70.7 of Americans aged 20 and over (excluding pregnant women), were overweight or obese, using a standard epidemiological definition of overweight, which is when the BMI (weight in kilogram divided by the square of height in meters) is 25 or higher. 37.9% of American adults are obese.

https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/fastats/obesity-overweight.htm

The BMI thresholds of 25 (for overweight) and 30 (for obesity) have some limitations, but they provide an inexpensive way to screen for folks being fat and to describe the overall fatness of a population. Of course, many muscular and not very fat people will exceed these thresholds, so there is some misclassification associated with these definitions, as with any screener. This CDC page describes BMI and its strengths and weaknesses as a measure of fatness.

https://www.cdc.gov/healthyweight/assessing/bmi/adult_bmi/index.html

It appears from epidemiological studies that, compared to being normal weight, having an obese BMI is a risk factor for shorter life and more disability. Being overweight but not obese is not as much of a disadvantage as being obese is. https://www.nature.com/articles/ijo201729

[DanT]

I'm aiming to get my BMI under 30. When it's that low, I have about about a 10-inch difference between my chest and my waist circumference and I feel very fit when jogging. Even now, though, when I'm about 30 to 35 pounds away from that goal, I feel pretty good. In the past 7 days, my average resting heart rate is 42 beats per minute, and I have about a 8-inch difference between my chest and waist circumference, but I still would say I'm fat, because I am carrying a lot of excess weight that can harm my health, and I care to take it off if I can.

[NJChiefsFan]

Get one of those stand up desks.

If anyone wants a makeshift one I bought bed risers and put them under a few desks for my students. Might need a couple to get it high enough for adults since they are in middle school but it worked and was cheap. A few of them really like it. I use it all the time on my prep.

As for the thread I've been about 6'1" 180 since high school. Back then it was my metabolism. Now it takes effort.

[Gary]

Short answers: yes and yes

Full version: I went through some pretty bad times over the last few years in a marriage that should have ended at least 5 years ago but just did this January (having kids makes you need to hang on longer than you probably should have). I got to point where I didn't care and stopped being active. Got up to about 340lbs before basically hit rock bottom and knew something had to change.
Now I'm eating healthier and lowering my daily caloric intake. Don't know how to cook so I signed up for Home Chef and that has really helped as well. I'm trying to make small but permanent changes to gradually lose the weight and keep it off. So far down 30 lbs.

[BWillie]

Yeah, BMI is BS. In the BMI, a 6'1" 200 lb man who weighs 225 is obese.

Just because you don't like it doesn't mean its not right. Even being muscular and fat is not healthy. Which is what I think most of you that are pissed about. Your heart has to work that much harder and its much easier for your tryglycerides to rise at a higher rate regardless of "how well you hold" your lbs. Also, the more body mass you carry makes you more prone to most forms of cancer.

[TLO]

Yes it is.

I remember you as more, eh hem, Hispanic looking. If that really is you, you look good. :clap:

[RaidersOftheCellar]

There are, of course, certain conditions or metabolic states that make it harder to keep weight off. But I think for nearly everybody it's still very doable. Biggest problem by far is sugar and ignorance in terms of what reasonable sugar consumption is. To avoid putting on fat, on average a person needs to limit sugar to 24-36 g/day. Yet the average American probably triples that at least. A can of Coke alone is about 50.

Not to mention that a sluggish metabolism is generally a result of getting no exercise and bad eating and sleeping habits.

The people I know who are legitimately overweight? It's usually obvious why when I spend some time around them.

A little stubborn bellyfat can be extremely hard to get rid of, especially if you're over 30 and trying to gain muscle at the same time. But it ain't that hard to avoid obesity. Real obesity, not BMI obesity.
