  • What do you weigh?

    Here's a poll to see the spread (pardon the pun) of murcers weights. Are we all a sedentary bunch of lards, or do we spend enough time away from the keyboard to keep the extra pounds off?

    Without even noticing I'd gained a lot of weight the last couple of years. I'm now in the process of burning it all off. I'm down 40lbs since late September.

      Used to be chubbier, but a harsh term in school and work made me lose ~30 lbs. I then changed my diet and the weight has stayed off easily. Now I'm trying to add it back on as muscle.

        At 6'2" I was stuck at ~150 lbs for years.

        Then about 5 years ago I started to put weight on and am now at about ideal weight of 190 lbs.

        I could do with losing some round my middle though, so have changed my diet and increased my exercise. Aim is to lose a couple of inches off the waist.

          LOL, I just looked at the thread title and numbers on the poll at first and thought I had wandered into the "anorexic beauty" forum

          I'm technically at my ideal weight, but it really is distributed in a bunch of wrong places..having an increasing beer belly at 20 ain't funny I reaally should start going to the gym.

            Well my ideal weight isn't the size 29 (US) I used to wear back in uni, but it's not the size 38 I wear now either

            Oddly (or not) enough I gained the majority of my weight while my wife was pregnant with our son. Hopefully I won't gain any more weight this time around

              i'm a little chubby. nothing too bad, just trying to get rid of the spare tire. that being said, my weight is alright - a little heavier than I would like, but I could easily burn fat and keep the weight with muscle if I tried. probably wind up weighing more.

                Actually I'm on a mission to lose 4 stone at the moment throughout 2005. Lost about 12-13 lbs so far. Got a competition with a friend and I don't intend to lose Plenty of cash involved.

                  I weigh 176 pounds. I should ideally weigh about 165-170 pounds. I am definitely out of shape though. My back problems prevent me from working out the way I used to unfortunately

                  Oh, and I am 5' 9" or so.

                      I am 18 years old right now, and I weight 108lb. Yes, I am very underweight. I love telling girls to guess how much I weight, and it always turns out that I am lighter than them. Hehehehe.

                      I hope I can keep it that way.

                        pssssh. i'm 5' 10" and about 195lbs on a good day. a little over 2 years ago I weighed about 225lbs, and about a month and a half ago I weighed around 185lbs. I wanna try to get down to that weight again... the only positive is that I generally have muscle mass working against my weight...

                          5'8'' here and at 177 last I checked. I was 162 when I got married 2years 8 months ago, but the love of a good woman who loves cooking has me longing to be single again just so I would be slimmer. I don't know what it is, but I ate similar foods, then. Must be old age catching up with me or something.

                            6'8" ~290lbs
                            my doctor told me last I saw him that I should be around 220lbs.. I could not help laugh at that. I would be super skinny at 220.. 260-270 is more like it with my build as far as I can tell. Body mass index my rear.

                              5' 7" weighed 130 when I got married.
                              now at 150- 15 years later, was at a high of 165.
                              I have a light frame, and feel I should be around 145.
