2022 Weigh-in Thread

Whilst there are a lot of issues with BMI as a measurment, discovering I now fall into the category of ‘Obese’ is a blow. 103kg today. Possibly the heaviest I’ve ever been.

And unsurprisingly I feel like shit at the moment. Can’t imagine why :thinking:. But it’s a viscious cycle of feeling shit, so eating and drinking shit. And sleeping badly. FFS.

I hear you brother!

Gradual changes, consistency, you’ll get there - just like training.

I don’t read too much into bmi - surely it’s a bit flawed. I wouldn’t class myself as overweight however I’m very close to the top of the normal range for my height

Don’t. You’ll start the heretic off about Noakes and CICO :face_with_hand_over_mouth::stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

I think BMI is a bit of a nonsense. Certainly for me being an outlier in height. According to the BMI my health weight range is 71-96kg. If I weighed 71 kg I would look like a WW2 PoW. My wife said I looked too skinny at 93kg which is just inside the normal range

Yes, but as we all know the flaw it’s fine to use here. It’s the ignorant that use it as the sole measure of health that are a problem. Pretty sure it has no value for endurance athletes below I dunno, say 24? I’d use BF% but I don’t have a Dexascam :wink:

It was me who started it :smiley:

I know - that’s why I said “Heretic” - like your nicknickname :wink:

Agree with BMI, it’s just a barometer for us to use.

Bascially, if your tiddies and belly wobble when walking, then you’re overweight.
It’s about that simple.

85.7 today

Wow 30/31” are what I wear and like you have similar in 32” for winter/off season wear. I’m a short arse in comparison at 179. Back on track and should be good for the end of March

But mine are quite wide fit anyhow (Edwin 16/20oz Japanese selvedge denim)

I’d not got into my 30” Denham slim fits :skull:

Two consecutive days of reducing weight. Is this the start of the downwards trajectory?
