I've gone from overweight to obese. That's not bad considering I've put on four stone and I'm two inches shorter. I was expecting worse tbh.
 
I am five foot 6 (I used to be five foot 8 but then Anton put me right) and am 8 and a half stone.

Probably underweight then, but I don't care really. Apart from feeling the cold all the time I am pretty healthy.
 
Those charts are SUCH bollox......they dont take into account big built lads. I am just short of 6 ft, I have recently lost three stone, im about a stone off being where I should be and according to that I will still be obese when I arrive. I haven't weighed my apparent recommended weight since I was about 14 years old. Those tables are devised by terminally scrawny ryvita eating nerds who would keel over if they eat a pie in anger. Real men who have had to lug stuff around for a living, who have enjoyed a game or two of rugby over the years, who have had to look after themselves on a night out.........carry alot more beef around with them than those tables allow.......
 
According to the chart yes. I am 5' 11'' and 13 stone. However, whilst I do have a slight paunch, I am defo not overweight!!

yeah a bit, was alot four months ago but lost a fair chunk of it. will be dead on in a stone and a bit, hopefully by the new year. if I was to weigh 13 stone, I would look like a extra from Schindler's list...The tables dont take into account big boned muscular lads IMO...
 
Fat and proud!!

Why have a six pack when you can get the full keg.
 
Yes , it would appear that i am ....... only one thing for it then ... i'm just gonna have to get rid of one of me chins!

It pisses him off. He was dead slim when I met him.
