How overweight are you?

[Charnel]

Ive been about 185 pounds now for 4 years straight and in that time ive been playing wow. Only recently have i gained maybe 10 pounds because of an injury i received almost a year ago during football. This injury left me unable to exercise properly like my body had been used to for 5 months thus causing some weight gain. Anyway, enough of my personal story and more Ot. I believe there is a stereotype that not only pc gamers face but also console gamers in terms of personal health/social life. I'll admit there has to be a fraction of those communities who do nothing but eat sleep and sit all day playing a game or two. Imo if your happy doing that while maintaining grades, a family, job or whatever then by all means enjoy yourself, but don't let something meant to be recreational take over. Theres alot to life besides electronics. Go outside and enjoy the breeze and sunshine or meet new people in person. Pretty much what im getting at is enjoy life to the fullest without harming yourself or others. As always, take care.

Mild hyperthyroidism keeps me underweight. Still six foot and under 11 stone.

5'10 150lbs

I lift weights and jog regularly though, so most of it is probably muscle No idea what my BF% is.

[noteworthynerd]

According to the BMI, my ideal weight is 180lb, I weight 230, so I'm considerably "overweight", although I do not look or feel that way. That being said, I am actively trying to reduce my weight by eating less (and eating healthier) and exercising more often.

Who cares? I don't understand the point of this. I am athletic, always have been but I couldn't honestly give 2 shits what anyone else but myself does. Why do people care what other people weigh?

What are you 13 year old girls that just discovered a magazine full of size 0 models?

around 8-9% body fat 210lbs 1.80m And most of it is dry muscle since i stop play or play casually Loads of gainers low on carbs and train train loads of cardio as well So yeh am pretty lean for game nerd :P

[Dundebuns]

I am always amazed how from threads like these the average wow player becomes a slightly under weight person who does weights and crunches n stuff.

Personally, I might be a tad overweight but that was due to a month of literally nothing while waiting for a job to start. Now dinner is a bit pricey so that coupled with walking around a big site should bring it down a bit. Maybe, if I cba showering morning and night I might do some stretches but /shrug.

If I'm using google right I should be around 6 feet (183cm) and weigh around 300 pounds (140kg). Oh, and I'm 21.

we're not confused by the metric system, its just silly

[Leketøy]

I am 1.84m (6ft) and weigh in at 134kg (21st 1.4lb) so i might be a little overweight XD

[Deleted]

about 80 kg and 180 cm, so about the right weight for my height.

Why would people talk about how fat they are?

Because not everyone is shallow enough to care.

I'm in average shape, around 15 kilos overweight I think, but I don't look fat, so it's all good.

[Pythagoreant]

I weighed 285 lbs (6'0" tall), and then I realized I didn't like the way I looked or felt, so I dropped 100 lbs (over the course of 6 months to a year). Now I'm 5 lbs overweight, but I don't really look overweight at all.

This is definitely not a thread that aims to make fun of people playing wow because he quit . And it's definitely all right to make fun of overweight people according to the OP

Got like 15 extra kg. I put on like 30-35 kg a few years ago when I had to stop sports due to a serious injury, and I'm slowly going back to my former weight.
