Title: Have you lost that 'sitting around waiting for Covid to end' weight, YET?
Post by: corbe on April 20, 2023, 01:46:30 am
   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!

Complicated... I go out and about, but avoid tight crowds when possible.

I would love to have some of it back @Gefn

Somehow, to my great surprise, I didn't put on any Covid weight.

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.
