5'7", 310 to be exact. . I know I'm heavy, but I also know I'm comfortable with my size. I feel extremely lethargic when I get below 260, like no energy, very tired. Gain my weight back and I'm good for 18hr days! Very strange. But, yes, I understand, the morbidly obese, who need a scooter to check the mail, and can't walk a flight of stairs without O2. I just feel that half the time people look at me that way when the conversation goes that way. I'm at peak currently, according to all my testing. I'm fit tested for respirator use, and get a rigorous physical every year working in a chemical plant. Dr says I'm too heavy, but can't point to any issue that requires me to lose weight. Cholesterol levels great, BP great, heart of a 16yo(unvaxed) kid. My only issue is arthritis in my hands. My whole family is the same. Just short and wide!
wow! I'm 5'8" the largest I've ever been is 210 and I couldn't stand it I was so uncomfortable. Just keep an eye on yourself please. What you are saying is you are not a "victim", many fat people today want to be treated as handicapped. p.s. I'm right behind you in a bar fight. haha
Yeah, worked as a bouncer for several years! Football training in high school built the mass. Genetics built the structure! I've never broken a bone in my life, even after two motorcycle wrecks, and being in a few auto accidents. Rolled a 4wd truck and walked away. My dad had osteoporosis in his spine. Crushed 3 vertebrae. So as a kid in my teens, his dr put me on calcium supplements to strengthen my bones. Strange that when I lost weight years later, my dr said I was malnourished and needed to eat more because i have such a large frame. I'm a 56"chest/42"waist. Spare tire with love handles! Btw, I'll be happy to stand in front of you in a bar fight! I miss those days! Well, maybe not so much. 😆
