    Round is a shape, no? Seriously, since having major surgery 3 years ago, and losing 32 lbs in a week's time, I've gained nearly all of what I lost back again. But instead of residing in my arms and shoulders where it used to be, it's now taken up residence in my belly. I'm not liking this one little bit... :sigh:

    I feel your pain. Actually I might even be a lightweight considering my age and length. However ALL of that weight is in my belly, making me unable to see my feet when I'm in the shower (so to speak) :( If I want a tight belly I should weight somewhere around 60 kilo's (132 lbs), which is actually absurdly light for a man of 1.80 meter! I might get some muscles and weigh a bit more and still having a tight belly, and chicks love that too :rolleyes:

    It's an OO world.

      Me. I'm trying hard to reach the 200 lb mark, but it's being tougher than I thought it would be. But hey, only muscular mass, please. :)

        I have been on a diet for about two months now. I lost two kilos (4.4 pounds) last month! I feel so proud I am even considering to start working out, just a little to boost the process :D Ever since I got a 9 to 5 job at the office (and stopped my newspaper round) I have been gaining weight faster than you can say "You must lose weight because you're a fat bastard". About a kilo (2.2 pounds) per month for over half a year! :wtf: But the time has come where I said "no more!" and last weekend I finally saw the results of my hard work (which involves not eating a lot of pie, snacks, popcorn, etc.) :D This asks for a celebration! Who wants pie!? ;p

        Actually I believe a good diet consists of knowing you should sin, once in a while. (not too much though, but that's called discipline)

              Congrats on the weight loss. I have been on a low carb, very low sugar diet and I have lost 10 pounds already. I also eat five times a day. Three main meals and two in between snacks. Everyone has a formula to sustained weight loss but stick to the one that works for you. :thumbsup:

                I started the the way around - started more working out first. The only dietary concession so far is trying to cut out refined sugar and reduce fat a bit. I was hoping the 12 hours of excercise I did at the weekend would boost the weight loss a bit, but haven't seen any benefit yet....

                I'll amend what I've said, I haven't begun working out, but I have definitely increased my physical activity level.

                  I'm watching fat (especially saturated). Not eating those. That means I can't have crisps or popcorn while watching a film :( Ah well, it works and I'm not planning on dieting forever (aiming to just have more body exercise, so I can have some popcorn once in a while again).

                    Unfortunately, I am diabetic. My diet is more geared at life and quality of life. Believe me when I tell you that I do miss the candy. I can have sugar-free candy but too much of that will give you the runsters. :laugh:
