(of course, the fact that I tend to *only* eat ice cream at these

There's one thing I don't do . I almost never have a dessert or
junk food. I
also quit drinking many years ago...so between that and the fact
that I absolutely cannot sit still...keeps my weight down.
I eat "somewhat" healthy -- still too much red meat for what the
MD would like (I think he'd have me eating sawdust if he could!).
No sweets (despite baking virtually every week -- for others!
E.g., 50 pounds of flour will disappear between now and the
holiday) -- my sole indulgence being ice cream. But, must be
*homemade* which makes it much harder
to come by (I have to plan ahead to make it and allow a few *days*
before I can "indulge").
While my vocation is largely "desk work", I regularly am involved
in yardwork, home repairs, assisting neighbors, etc. -- so, I get
off
my *ss pretty regularly and "break into a sweat".
For regular exercise, I walk 3.8 miles each day (in 56 minutes --
33% faster than "average").
My biggest risk factor is poor sleep habits; why sleep when there
are
so many interesting things to do?? :
Lucky you.
well. I'm only 5' 6" so that's why I said at 170# I'm not
skinny
but for me that 170# does not put me in the overweight category
either...that's
just the way I'm built I guess
I think you would be surprised at what the MD's consider "normal
weight" to be! I'm 165-175 at pretty much 6' and the 175 gets
pretty close to borderline "overweight". Always want to ask the
MD to step on the scale while he's "frowning" at me! :-/
There are tables that can give you a nominal idea of what your
weight "should" be. But, you really need to have a specific
assessment as percent muscle and percent fat are very different
issues. Heavy
and muscular is preferable to heavy and flabby.
By any chart I'm over weight but I know I really have just a small
amount of flab.
I rarely weight myself and judge things by what belt loop I use.
SWMBO gets annoyed that I can take off my pants without
unbuckling/unzipping.
"No hips" -- doesn't matter what size I wear, the "shape" is the
deciding factor in that regard.
(wearing a belt actually makes things worse as the added weight of
the belt buckle *drags* my pants down. Trips to Home Depot are
particularly risky as both hands are typically busy holding a piece
of lumber, bag of Quickrete, etc. -- no free hands to pull the
pants back up when they start creeping down!)
Funny, my husband has the same problem with his pants staying on!
No hips! --

Humm, He must have worked his ass off. Perhaps he made a bad
investment and lost his ass. Maybe he saw something so funny that he
laughed his ass..... o_O

I'll have to ask him what he thinks the cause it, but I'm betting
he'll say he works his ass off. lol
I have a genetic defect , runs in my family and is called noassetall .
I've considered suspenders but it's just short of annoying enough to
actually get and use them .
LOL I've seen a lot of men with that same problem. They can't seem to
keep their pants up.
