Why the fuck didn’t I do this years ago?
I was never fat or overweight, but i can’t even imagine how hard it has to be. I’m always so happy when i see people drop weight. But with my friends it’s more the other way around, everyone seems to get bigger and bigger.
Funny thing is, it can be hard to know you are. What you see everyday is just ‘normal’ rather than over or underweight. I’m 6’ + and at one point scraped near 300, but didn’t notice anything off until I got to needing a 40" waist for jeans and noticing being a bit tired going over a small hill to the office. Self perception is sneaky like that. Never was the giant size that some get to, but even then I might expect similar ‘this is normal’ might apply.
6’ are rougly 183 cm
300 are 136 kg? 150 kg? I am not sure which unit that is
40" is probably 101.6 cm if I am correct and this is inches
Beep boop I am a human
300 is around 136kg.
Seems on point, forgot a conversion to stone.
300 lbs = 21.42857 stone
