Routine Check-up

[Demonic Angel]

Had to take a trip to the doctors yesterday for a routine check-up, you know.... blood pressure and that sort of stuff....

Then she said "Lets get you on the scales"

NOOOOOO!

I hate being weighed, mainly because I always get embarrassed when the doctor says I've put on weight and my BMI now classes me as overweight (seriously - apparently I am!)

But instead of the disappointed frown and the serious look, she looked shocked - and so was I when she turned round and told me I'd lost over a stone since last seeing her in November!!

So the healthy-eating and working like a trooper has done something!

I'm still classed as slightly overweight for my height but definitely much better than I was and I knew something had happened because my trousers kept falling down! But after all that time of serious dieting early last year that did nothing - I'm really pleased that I've managed to lose a stone without even trying!

So now not only am I happy generally, I'm also happy and slimmer! Wooyay! :D Now I just need to stay as I am ;)

Hooray !

I've just deduced a theory about weight loss that may prove useful .

If you're a bit overweight for your height, but you just can't seem to shake those unwanted pounds - all you have to do it concentrate very hard and grow a bit taller ! it's all to do with ratios !!

Ask Dr Rich will return next week ! :P

[Pompey Gaz]

I knew a girl once who had to have this done once a week due to a spinal twist. She was very tall ! probably still is !

[Demonic Angel]

I wanna be just like Judge Doom at the end of Who Framed Roger Rabbit! (The part where he's all flat and stretched, not when he melts in dip!)

[Boro Sera]

Ah, the Judge Doom look can be implemented in stages.

First off I'd recommend drinking far too much every night, going out clubbing as much as possible and reducing your sleep by at least 90%. Within a short time you'll have the eyes right !

[Demonic Angel]

Taking helium may also help.... he had a very high-pitched voice....

I was so scared of him as a kid - scary scary villain!

I'll just keep my contact lenses in for a few days - that'll give me the red-eye scary look quite quickly Now all I need is a cane and a black trench coat

[Boro Sera]

So........you want a Stretching Rack and a cane............

New Job or just a secret hobby??? :P

[Demonic Angel]

Oh.... I thought blokes were into that kinda stuff..... ;)

[1bloke1dog1mr2]

I blame chocolate and beer! Well done on the weight loss, not having a man has it's benefits!!

[Demonic Angel]

I've just been eating less & more healthily! Plenty of fresh fruit & veg and not much fast food - working a lot has probably helped too!

Oh and he won't, dont want to get all fat and put him off now do I!

Possibly going down to the beach next weekend and packing my bikini - thats how great I feel right about now! ;) I've never worn a bikini in public before! lol

[Demonic Angel]

And they were quite recent as well so I can guarantee I look no different...

And its very kind of you to say as well! :D

Good work, congratulations. I'm at the opposite end of the spectrum, I've been disgustingly skinny since I left school but I was always an ok weight for my height but over the winter I stopped playing football & instead of increasing my weight as I expected, it actually went down. I've guessed that it's because the muscles that I built up in my legs from all the running had turned into fat because they weren't used, which is lighter than muscle. I worked out my BMI & I was actually marginally underweight which freaked me out so I ate loads for about a week & now I've started playing football again so I've got it back to a similar level to which I've been for years.

There really should be diets about how to sensibly build your weight up though because while most people can put up with a bit of excess meat, skin & bones has never been a good look.

There was no kindness involved ...it was brutal honesty... how cool is that eh
