I’ve been telling people for awhile now that I’m overweight. Most people seem to think I look alright with the extra pounds but I think they’re just being nice. I’ve even been trying to fend off the advances of younger women (I couldn’t believe it either) by calling them chubby chasers.
Great Grandpa Dan actually walked over to me at our family Xmas party and the first words out of his mouth? “You’ve gotten fat.” He’s obviously not one to mince words. My mother is much kinder saying that I look “healthy”. Shanna thinks I look the best I ever have, but I think she’s just trying to avoid hurting my feelings.
I caught up on my Paolo antics this morning, his posting about his own issues with being a lard caught my eye and I decided to follow the link to a Body Mass Index calculator. Sure enough at 200 lbs I’m pushing maximum density. I’m not obese yet, but I’m solidly overweight for my height.
Unfortunately I lack the interest to lift weights or otherwise exercise. It’s all down hill from here folks. Thanks for the memories.
