health Are you content with your weight?

[Clawdeen 12,189]

No, I’ve gained a bit and I need to lose that. 

[The Kaeya Simp 13,988]

I'm happy with my weight, though I should focus on keeping my weight stable, cause if I keep gaining 50lbs a year I'll end up with a gastric band

[Fluttershyfan94 5,742]

I'm muscular so a lot of the weight is simply muscles, I'm not fat but I admit looking at the scale I feel like I could be four kilos less. Don't know though, I am perfectly fine with my weight. I think everyone always thinks they could lose some but you know it is about balance you don't want to be too skinny or too fat, somewhere in the middle while living a healthy lifestyle of course and you're pretty much good that is. 

[Phosphor 11,528]

Absolutely not and I'm doing something about it. I've done a 2 1/2 week transition into keto and switched over to "ketovore" full time about 2 weeks ago. This is a meat heavy version of the regular keto diet. I seem to be responding well to it as I've lost 17lbs this month.

Being overweight with my family's genetics pretty much means suffering with complications of diabetes til death, which is usually early 70's at best. It's almost a mathematical certainty, but by losing the weight, I have a chance at having a long life with few health problems.

[ExplosionMare 18,062]

Yes, it may be a bit underweight but it doesn’t make me any less healthy

[daviddaviddavid 776]

Yes, but body composition matters more than weight. I'm 93kg @ 190cm (about 200lbs at just under 6'3" for the Americans), which is at the upper end of normal but since my body fat % is low I'm not really that fussed about it. I like being powerful >:D

[Tom Gallagher 33,581]

I’m extremely skinny and very proud of it. Metabolism runs in my family so we’re all quite skinny but I think I’m the skinniest and boniest out of all of them.

[Here No Longer 5,276]

Not quite content with it, I want to lose a little bit now honestly. I don't feel all that great weighing what I do now, I want to be skinnier again (my goal is a little bit "underweight" according to BMI).

[Savy 5,075]

Not really content with it, I'm working on losing quite a bit of weight right now.

[Magpie 623]

No, I'm overweight and have been for a while. Working on it though, down 30 pounds so far. Cutting out any sugar and carbs has been working for me, just another step in finally feeling comfortable in my body.

[Astralshy 26,421]

I definitely put on some weight during these lockdowns ... but in general I was always fine with my weight. I'm not overweight but I could loose 1 or 2 kg to be honest.

? Your muscles won't grow if it ain't burning fat... It needs to eat something to grow

Fair enough, healthy fats like meat and fish tho fight not like dominos?, 😂

[Phosphor 11,528]

Almost. Just 30 more pounds of weight loss to go! I'm so close!  

[ZiggWheelsManning 9,922]

The belly weight is hard to get rid of  Treadmill walking has got to work at some point  

[Dreambiscuit 9,578]

My weight was all over the map when I was in 'the family way' and I had a bunch of lbs left over afterward. But I've been working on it diligently ever since, and now I'm almost back to where I need to be. Five more lbs ought to get me back to my playing weight.

Congratulations Dreamy. 

[Clawdeen 12,189]

No I’d like to be thinner

[ExplosionMare 18,062]

I wish it could be a little heavier but I know that’s not going to happen

[Splashee 28,563]

I don't look much at my weight because it has a negative effect.
