Not really, no. Does a pub crawl count as been social in nature as well as exercise?

I went to the gym last night- I didn't do any exercise, went straight to the sauna, and spoke to a few people and was generally been pretty sociable.

The point being made by ER is bollox anyway - 'cos there are as many lardarses in Germany as the UK anyway - according to the stats, and we know they never lie.

This is all over the UK papers at the moment:

Consuming low-calorie drinks may increase the risk of putting on weight, according to scientists in the United States.

They have suggested that people who choose diet drinks containing artificial sweeteners tend to overcompensate and consume more calories than those who do not.

Not shit Sherlock wink.gif "I'd like eight Big Macs, six large fries and a diet coke. Oh, and supersize me will ya?

It's like my father-in-law, no butter, low fat skimmed milk, "Du darfst" low fat sausage never eats chips and is still fat. He rides a bike and goes hiking and diets. Then he eats a big fuck off portion of Schweinshaxn that would drop a lion and then says "I don't understand why I'm overweight, must be my bones and age. Wait until you're [30, 35, 40, 45] and you'll have the same problem."

Hmmm. Pa? Eat less and more regularly will you?

I think your response should have been 'Touche!'
Besides, I was just jesting- no need to bite smile.gif

@JE you said your GP's wife put lipstick on her nipples. Dumb question, but what is GP? General Practitioner? Grand Pa?

Here's a little shopping guide for skinny girls:

GP is General Practioner. Chris and Dorothy were friends of the family and actually lived in the same street. This did not help my mothers addiction to prescription drugs 'cos Chris would prescribe anything she wanted.

Anyway - back in the 70's they used to have some pretty wild parties and there was more than a fair amount of wife-swapping going on. Normally the party had a theme (other than shagging-yer-mates-missus) and on one occasion it was "Where were you when the ship went down". Exact details are rather sketchy but at some stage I have it on good authority that the towel Dorothy was wearing ended up on the floor and lipstick-on-nipples entered English family folklore.

So when you were 14 years old or younger, you were exposed to wild sex parties with swinging, nudity, and alcohol (and possibly drugs, it was the 70s after all) consumption. I must say that's a pretty messed up ... ok, fuck it... are we related? tongue.gif This whole story seems somewhat familiar (except for the lipstick nipples).

We swapped parents at one stage as an experiment. I also moved out of home to 4 different houses with 4 different blokes over 2-3 years. Funniest one was when she moved this young alcoholic american guy into our shed in the garden - he lived there for a few weeks. Her 2nd husband she picked up after knocking him off his motorbike when pissed. She wrote all 3 family cars off in one week once. But I had a happy childhood, so no complaints. But was a bit whacky at stages.

Back to the size dealy. The fashion industry has changed the sizes over the years so that we think we are buying smaller clothes. Back in the day, size 3 was the very smallest US size. Now a 3 is a 0.

It's kind of nice because 17 yrs. ago, I was wearing US 10 or 12. Now I wear mostly 12. I have gained about 20 lbs. I even bought an 8 over there last year.

The German sizes don't lie. A centimeter is a centimeter is a centimeter.

I just got back from a beach in Thailand. I was amazed that our hotel (Hyatt) was chockablock full of Scandinavians and even more surprised that the majority of them were morbidly obese and not blonde. I had the delusion that they nipped out to the grocery store on cross country skis or snow shoes and were rosy cheeked and healthy.

So I weigh 74 kilos and am 175 cm. tall. Am I a fatty?

I guess I haven't paid attention, but which measurement of centimeters do German sizes refer to? You are most likely a 42 (US 12) - so where are the 42 cm?

depends which 'chart' you look at.
sometimes I am 'ideal weight' and sometimes 'underweight', depends where I look!

I'm almost exactly the same way. I generally try to avoid looking in the belly region.

Just stand up straight and that usually goes away tongue.gif

I'm currently down to 3 bellies. I got 4 new ones for Christmas.

Why not start a poll?

Really fraufruit, do you really need a load of webmongs pissing about on company time* to guess your podgestatus?
Maybe I just don't understand the question. Not "Am I a fatty?" but why the heck would you ask random interweb spackers* to decide for you?
Doesn't make sense.
I must be getting old.

*I include myself in both these brackets, obviously.

Post a piccy and I'll give you an honest answer. Kinda hard to tell otherwise. You could be slim up top and have a backside the size of Texas (I know a girl like that).
Ruthie
I think that's the whole point. No one wants to be a fatty, but the definition of fatty can vary so widely, there is no fixed definition of it.
Odenwalder
That's right, Ruthie. What one person may find 'perfect', I may find 'boney'. What one person may say is "a fatty", I may say she's healthy. Some people may think a girl is "fat" where another may find the same girl as "pleasantly plump". There are many BBWs out there, and that is the "type" that some guys go for.
