Completely on a side issue, the Body Mass Index is a bit rough and
ready as an indictor, but according to it, your goal of 150 stone (210
lb) is about 30 pounds north of a healthy weight for your height. At
210, you will be in the top end of the overweight range, almost into
the start of what they classify as obese. If you are doing this for
your health, any weight loss is great, and 210 is a good mini-goal, but
you might want to contemplate revising your ultimate goal south to more
like 13 stone (185). You also might want to add some exercise to the
mix.


I don't have any health issues, I just don't like the way I look at
the moment. I've always been a biggish chap, many people have told me
that I don't look fat, just "well built" but I know there's plenty of
fat one me. I can't imagine being 13st but I guess I'll just have to
get down to 15st and see how I feel.

Congrats on the 6 lb.


Thanks though I did get my maths wrong. I lost 3lbs from 17st 1lb,
so I'm 16st 12lbs not 10 like I said.
