When I was a very athletic and anorexic teen I weighed 98 at my worst, and about 130 at extremely thin, but with muscles. I cannot imagine weighing 120lbs. I cannot even begin to imagine it. And one suggested I lose 50lbs, which makes it even MORE confusing. They are all different. I intend to get as healthy as I can, and tell everyone and everything to gently caress off about it.

Thanks, it is one of my favs, super light and does not actually spike you. My girl friend brought it back from a trip to NY, she said that there were all kinds of street vendors with hilarious things, but she brought me something small and it is super cool. It doesn't go with everything, but I push that line often.

BMI is extremely lovely way to measure how overweight a person is. I know a 5'6" dude who is 220 pounds. He is not fat, he is jacked as gently caress. Conversely I know someone who is 6'0" was 190 was is a chubby rear end motherfucker.

Oh hey I'm also 5'8 and used to be muscular too. Screw BMI. This is me at 150 lbs  I'm only losing now in a way I'm comfortable and find it sustainable. I can't work out like before, so most of the effort comes from nutrition.

Yeah, in no way should you try to be 120. If t makes you feel better, it's probably that low for people who are naturally very thin and have a hard time gaining weight so they don't get pressured into trying to fit into the more average 140-150 range. With muscles, you're probably going to be on the 150+ side. (5'8" woman here, and I'm a chubby 180, I was an athletic 130ish in my teens. Very "skinny", but I'm wide hipped so 98 would have been skeleton time). I'd stop weighing yourself altogether at this point, and focus on your workout PRs and eating goals. You look great, and should be enjoying keeping healthy and strong. I was looking at old pictures the other day, have a cute old picture from high school (5'8", ~145)  Edit:

 Look, I edited out the sideboob, and any hint of rear end. If a guy can have a naked back, so can I. Take it out if you want. That was me at 175lbs at one point, with a 26" waist, I challenge that BMI chart to tell me what I ought to weigh again. I realize that I am not thin in that photo, but I like to think that my back was pretty jacked. Maybe. Body image and weight and sizes are loving screwed up. I think that I am just proud that my face looks like a face again and not a blob. Seriously though, they want me to weigh 120lbs? I want to photoshop this photo to look like that.  there, that is me at 120lbs (the bird is for good measure). Teagan has a new favorite as of 19:08 on Dec 6, 2016 |

See, that's weird to me, because I found once I got the carbs almost entirely out of my system (I was eating only 20-25g of them per day), I lost any and all hunger pains or feelings, and could then go hours and hours without eating (not by choice, but sometimes it happened). Ah well, different reactions, I suppose. I've taken a break from keto because my wife is pregnant/not currently on it, and it's tougher to try and do it around someone who isn't. I've already gained too much back

I just went low-er carb than usual and have lost like 30 out of the 50 lbs I needed to lose

To gauge my fattitude, I measure my neck, waist and hips, to get an approximate amount of adipose tissue. I'm 195 cms and 115 kgs, which makes me obese.

BMI says I'm overweight when I look completely average. I'll admit that my weight is a mystery, since I look practically the same as I did in college but I'm a good 40 pounds heavier. I have no idea where the weight is going.

guys bmi was developed to estimate how much a person's tissue mass consists of fat as a way of grossly evaluating health risks, it's neither a measure of waistline nor a hot or not score, it's a little outdated because % visceral fat, diet & activity levels are better indicators of risk but at least it's easy to measure and apply so long as you're not a body builder or have unfortunately unhealthy fat distribution some countries don't even bother to give one axis labels like overweight or obese but use categories like mildly associated health risks, or moderately associated health risks, etc - those categories are common in countries where health risks already creep in at normal, high-normal weight ranges where it wouldn't make sense to label people a word that means 'fat' not that any of you need to worry, 2016 goons are all ~*beautiful*~, have nice backsides, make deliberate diet choices and have active, exciting hobbies ?!?!? hard counter has a new favorite as of 23:08 on Dec 6, 2016 |

It is Aberfeldy night later, with pears, dark sweet cherries, and hot chili chocolate pieces. And supersmashbros melee with perhaps a gentleman friend. If he can keep up to the lyrics of RATM that I am listening to at full volume, he is a keeper for sure. Later we will have the rest of my bottle of Glenfiddich so that I have an excuse to buy another. I am very sad about the selection that I have around here, and my mcclellands is empty. It is so not an irish whiskey night tonight. I love that scotch is something that I can never spell. With a scotch slur though, you can pronounce anything, or just try to scrawl it on a napkin and slide it over to your bartender.

And then after a while, you just kind of point at your glass. If someone is at my house, my drams are friendlier than at a bar. The eyelashes help your drams. I have no shame, at all. And if you cannot pronounce, mumble "...ich" "nnnds".

By just keeping a log in the Fitness Log Cabin and measuring what I ate I dropped 40 pounds a few years ago, and weighed less than I did in high school, while being stronger than ever. Currently working on mental fitness, then it's back to pumping iron to make a positive outward change. Be happy in your skin!
