Interesting post.. I had a heart scare 2 years ago (i was 18 stone then) and after 13 weeks of umming and ahhing they told me to stop smoking (I dont smoke) cut down on drinking (if i have 1 can a week thats it!!).. never once mentioned my weight though!! all i had was 'well your a lorry driver its an occupational hazard!'
2 years later I am the wrong side of 20 stone :oops: ....had a few little 'grumbles' in the old ticker..so i am seriously looking into dieting - only problem being the hours i eat, usually nothing during the day and a good meal from 8pm onwards.. early starts and late finishes mean we dont get chance to eat as a family much..
i have been 'big' all my life -although when i first left home i went down to 11 stone - but looked seriously ill! (i am just over 6 foot when my back is straight)
realistically aiming for 15 stone, as i am supposed to be 12 1/2 :shock: ..
any ideas or diet sheets would be gratefully accepted ;)

What a load of balls!!! Both My grandads, and my dad have been Lorry drivers all there lives and none of them are. My dads 5ft 11 and just under 11 stone, but he always was a lanky buggar...

i can see why the charts state you should be of a certain weight if you are a certain height, but if you are big boned (if such a thing exists) then if you were the weight they tell you, you would look a bit unhealthy i would think
personally i want to be thin and fit but not thin and lanky
