Yeah I have the same problem, just can't (and won't) pack on the pounds

Greg next time I'm at your place just stand next to me, maybe you'll catch some of mine.
Perhaps I should come and put in a week or two at Mal's place!

Snacking and soda does it for me, I can drop 10-20 easily if I stop drinking soda. I always have to be drinking something though, water, tea, juice soda pop, coffee, just something, preferably cold, with ice, or chilled to approximately 32.5 degrees. Soda is the easiest and usually cheapest to get wherever I am, there's always vending machines around or a cafeteria, about the only place I'm limited to water is at work, I'm lucky with that, I'd probably weigh a lot more than I do if we had beverages at work.
The gym also worked for me, although not in the right way, I only went for a semester but I walked in 200lbs and walked out 215lbs.A brawny 215 but still 215.
In theory the more bulked up you get, although muscle weighs more than fat, the more calories you burn even just stationary, didn't really work for me though.
Wood. Such a wonderful substance.

Summer time in Japan does it for me (being a Brit), gets very hot and humid here.
The Karate training gets really hard here, in the summer...after training, there's puddles of moisture dripping off the walls and ceilingI can ring-out my Dogi (uniform). Our master won't let us use the Aircon...says it'll make us weak

I'm 188cm and 105kg. I'm too short for my weight. For most of my life (under 30) I was 75kg (very fit), then studied and jumped to 90kg (up to 40), my knees went and I got a desk job and crept up to 105kg at 49.

This is giving me the giggles,
I thought only us women were supposed to obsess about weight.
and groggy for your height and age you look ok
and yes you can lose 10 unwanted and excess but familiar kilos in a few weeks.
HWMNBO went to japan, with change of diet and no car I thought he was emaciated two months later until i remembered him sharing my levi's 20 years ago. He lost 15 kilos in 8 weeks
went to the UK and put it back in 4 weeks.

How to put on weight?
Give up smoking and turn 40 in the same week. Worked for me.
Was 181cm and 67kgs... I had a metabolism like a race horse. SWMBO said grey hound, as she would.
Now 180cm and 86kg
But hey, I walk my 10K steps per day otherwise I get huge! Nearly 90kgs once!Thank God for senility... now I don't feel so silly any more.

Greg, don't wish to alarm you, but have you thought of seeing a doctor regarding your reasonably quick weight loss?
I ask this as a person who has seen a few close friends lose weight, feel really quite good about it, sort of. Then start to notice a few other possible symptoms of diabetes.
My mother went through this phase before it became detected. It was only after she, in passing conversation, told her doctor about her great weight loss. She suffered from diabetes type 1.
My God daughter's father, in his early fifties also lost weight, and, as it was warmish weather, didn't notice that he was drinking a bit more water than normal. Also, as his appetite started to gain, his weight didn't. He has always been a very lean person and active, he is a farmer. He has diabetes type 1.
Mick.
PsI also have two younger brothers, who noticed similar symptoms, they now have diabetes type 2

Men don't visit doctors....... but I will take on board and thank you for your concerns, I think it more likely to be a combination of hot weather, hard work and plenty of salads rather than anything terminal...
But I will watch.
I've also cut out drinking red wine on a daiy basis, I don't know what affect that will have.
I feel like a science experiment..

Yeah, i was a bit on the slender side.
but dont forget women carry less muscle so i think our bmi is different.
I was down to 54kg last year, just hard work and thats about perfect for my age and build.
Put a bit on since sitting on office 3 days a week.
Think I'll go back to my shed full time.
