About 10 years ago, I lost 2 stone in 2 months, through diet and exercise, and went to the pool and gym 4 times a week (I worked for YMCA at the time, so it was free and under the office) - I really did feel good about the effect and I was probably the fittest I've ever been in my life, but I have to say that I hated every single second of the swimming and exercise 🙁
Are you moderators talking to yourselves again?? Lol 😆
Ok, so dieting is my speciality - so is gaining weight - esp when stressed or over worked (no sleep = the munchies).
I wonder how much of our weight is related to sleep sometimes, as I know when im lacking it, my brain is always calling for food!
And for the record - like Super Mario, I would need to loose a ridiculous amount for my BMI to make sense..... Whats all that about? No confidence in that metric

PS. So we may have lost to Man U, but I 8-2 remind Gooners about their little slip up!
I've not been losing weight, but have been going to the gym at least 3 times a week (i'm lucky as I can go a lunch time) and have shifted the blubber from my belly, and replaced with more muscle on the shoulders etc.
Also love the rush you get when you come out of the gym.
My BMI is high though as I'm not that tall, and the muscle puts me over. But i think if you feel good thats all that matters really, everyone is different and so all of these "generic charts" can't be right for all!
Ron - your ps was sooooooo off topic mate.
The generic BMI as a guide its a good thing - though one size never fits all so common sense needs to be applied as well.
I know by looking in the mirror I am still over weight - I don't need to work out my BMI to tell me that.
Also ..... rush ..... out of the gym.
I'm with you there 😆
Got to be by eating right and exercising right. High intensity weight training for short periods with good quality eating. muscle = fat blaster!!!!! Need any help I can share my work out routine and diet plan no probs =)
