I'm one of those people that eats whatever they want, whenever they want 24/7. And not put on a single bit of weight. I love it.

When I used to work in an office I would have fish andchips or kebab almost every day with 3 cream cakes. ... fatties didn't love me smile
Remember though, not being fat does not mean you're healthy.

I'm similar - I dont put on weight no matter how much I eat, but equally I eat sensibly and healthily (I do play a lot of sport anyway). But to eat take away food daily - like I say, you may not be fat, but equally you wont be healthy either.

I should be around 14 stone by chrimbo if all goes well which is about right for my height (6' 2")
you sure? i'm 6'1" and my ideal weight is 12st6.
Where do you get these weights from ? I am 6'2" and for donkeys years was 14 stone and skinny as a rake. 32" waist jeans etc.

Now I am a bit older and I look what I would call average. SO not really fat but up to a 34/36 waist and looking a bit chunkier. I now weight 16 and a bit stone.

I had a medical about 6 months ago, doc told me at my weight I was just above the median for my height so lose a couple of pounds and I would be bang on.

maybe I have heavy bones rolleyes
on the defensive as always, is everyone on PH permanently on their period?

was told this at a recent medical. i'm 12st11 at the mo, 32" w, 38" chest. wouldn't call myself fat but not exactly in shape either.

How do proper fatties clean themselves after going to the toilet their bingo winged arms simply aren't long enough or bendy enough
Here's some info for you...a mate of mine is a dwarf, which means he has a normal torso but small arms and legs (as opposed to a midget who is simply scaled down).

therefore, everyday stuff (like combing his hair) is impossible as his arms don't reach. The solution to the problem you pose; a long length, and a "see-sawing" action back and forth thumbup

what so clarkson cant abuse hammond for his white teeth or call may gay?!? what a boring country we'd be.
Its one thing to rib your mates, its another to kick and punch strangers because they're big. Would it have been acceptable for a stranger to lick and punch someone because they were black? Or gay? Or different in some way???

Of course its not on and it says more about the people doing the kicking and punching than the victim. Interesting how they target single women, you dont seem to hear about these spineless cowards attacking big lone men......

physical abuse no, but if we ban piss taking out of salad dodgers then put me in irons now.

we have 2 women in our building known as big bird 1 and big bird 2. they walk like crabs and would win any cankle contest hands down - they are even banned from using the lift at the same time! they are always at the front of the queue for bacon butties in the morning, but to be fair to them they donlt have butter as 'its fattening'.

fatties smile
so that's ok is it? taking the piss and calling colleagues names which you know they would find hurtful? I'm sure your HR department would love to talk to you about it.
couldn't give a toss really, have had worse insults directed to my face from senior managers. this is business, not playschool.
and the insults from your senior managers were acceptable to you? Just what is inappropriate at your workplace?

Additionally, you can remove 20% of the fat of any of the products you describe and reduce costs by just eating 20% less. If you're still hungry have some celery.
I love that, so simple.

well i got away with calling someone retarded, so not sure. i think our transsexual crane driver takes offence to being called 'mate'

have you ever worked in a non desk job? i work in heavy industry, not dying due to someone elses negligence is more of a priority than being PC. short pay someone by a couple of quid and there are murders, call them a useless to their face and they'll probably agree.

Depends how much muscle I'm carrying I guess. I was 13.5 stone about 5 years ago, I did look very skinny.

ETA, I'll post a "have I got potential" picture in Jan! smile

Its different when your amongst friends and you know people will take it as a joke rather than personally. Anything else is just bullying really.

I am thinking of starting a guaranteed weight-loss business.

You fatties send me £10.00 and I will send you a GUARANTEED method of losing weight.

It will be a postcard saying "EAT LESS CAKE"

This time next year we'll be millionaires, Rodders.

Do you really, honestly think its as simple as that?

Its like saying to an alcoholic "just drink less"

Weight problems are psychological, not physiological (99.99999999% of the time)

Exactly. Some people really choose to trivialise it, when it could be an extremely deep-rooted mental issue.

That's why I'll launch the Improved version of Ayahuasca's postcard, which will include a small sticky pad making it suitable to attach on the fridge or cake cupboard, providing continuous positive reinforcement for just £2 extra.

alcohol is a drug food isnt. less pies = less fat its not difficult bar say 5% of fatties who may genuinally have something wrong with them.
