During a recent trip to the ugly big city for a doctor visit for the wife, we availed ourselves of the scales in the office and what do I find? At 50 I'm bang on my HS weight 30+ years ago of 174lbs./6'2". I have been over 200lbs. in younger years but since moving to the country fulltime last November everything seems to have fallen right back into line and I feel waaaay better for it. No take-out even remotely close to us helps a bit

So how many of you have maintained or re-attained that old HS weight? Fess uphttp://img3.harmony-central.com/acapella/ubb/biggrin.gif

You've set us up here, Johnny. We've got nowhere to go but down ....:(
I therefore choose to employ the ralative anonymity of this forum to declare that I too enjoy a perfect weight/height ratio ;) .

No setup...I was pretty amazed myself, I don't have a six-pack but nor do I have a keg;)

I've not only maintained my old HS weight, like all good investments I've added to it.:rolleyes:

Tikki has problems putting on weight, so, me, being caring and sharing, have done it for her:)

Even fatherhood has not quite made me an old fart yet but my weight stablised a while back, I just get relaxed muscle tone.
A lap around Albert Park Lake during my lunch hour has helped me no end this last few weeks.

Cheers

I can now fit into a pair of years HWMBO bought me 7 years ago. That makes me pretty happy.:) Took 8 weeks, 2 heavy colds and a lot of hard work at home to be able to do it though :rolleyes: but was worth it.

I ran more laps around that bloody lake than I care to remember. Worked there during national service in the 1970's.
