   I gained 10 pounds during that and I'm a skinny guy.  I've gained 5 more since last year.
   It's not helping me with cacomorphobia, at all.

I found your 30 lbs @libertybele

Lost 6 of it this year, hoping by Christmas I’ll be back to goal weight.

When the oil patch went FLAT with the collapse in oil prices, I snagged a job delivering pizzas. 4,500 +/- deliveries in the year things were dead in the patch...I ate a lot of pizza and wings and lost weight!

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

I didn't either.  I was already sedentary.

I didn't ever "sit around" waiting for it to end. I knew it likely never would. Mine was frantically pacing around, hoping the government would finally give up on trying to micromanage it—and for the most part, they have for the past year or so.

Lost 70 lbs since May 2021 after stepping on a freight scale at work and shocked to find myself way heavier than I guessed I was.    From 250 down to 180.

Hey... I took off forty pounds in a week or so... All it took was bladder and heart failure....  :whistle:

Now only 25 pounds heavy coming out of winter... I am 265-75 hard cut... and usually 325 in the winter.

Lost 90 in past year for health reasons.  Dr. said something to the effect that those wounds on your legs could eventually lead to amputations if you don't do something pretty soon.

Much better now.
