That's way skinny. Would you consider yourself a healthy person?
Right now I'm at 186cm (6'1") and 87kg. Ideally I'd like to drop about 4 more pounds of fat and put on about 10 more pounds of muscle. I don't eat refined sugars, potatoes, white rice (occasionally), or white flour which helps a great deal. |

I've been working out the last 6 months or so and have lost about 7 pounds but have put on muscle. I'm 6', 183cm and down to 97kg. That's still a little heavy but I'm losing.

When I arrived in Korea I was a skinny mofo, but rapidly put on the kilos ~ 14 kg in the first 7 months, after that I levelled off. I put it all down to the late night all-you-can-eat and drink binges. Oh, and the lack of amphetamines in that drugforsaken hole...
Happy to say since I have been in Thailand I've managed to lose a couple of kilos without even trying...or taking yaba! |

I've lost about 7-8 kilo.
For me that is not a lot, as I am tall and big boned. Actually, no one has really noticed here. When I went home, though, people did notice, with envy. And I had to buy some new clothes. But I am still too big boned, from my German ancestry, for most Korean clothes.
I think, for me, the reason is that there are just not so many temptations, and going out to eat does not equate with gaining weight, as it does in the States. That is not meant as a political statement, it is just a fact. I had to be very careful when I went to the States, and that is not really the case in Korea. |

damn man and i thought i was bad, thats some serious debauchery going on there aye?. Thats all good though, live it up and go hard i say. I seem to go through phases where i will train like a mofo and get into good nick, then my life will change which put's the kybosh on the old routine. Im steadily getting back into some form though. |

Yeah, I'm healthy. I grew really tall when I was in my teens, and didn't fill out. I've been gaining weight slowly since I stopped growing upwards. Believe it or not I actually weighed less when I was about seventeen. I gained about 8 kilos since then. |
