I've noticed I'm turning into a fatty, too. 5'8", used to be 140 with 11% body fat, now am 158 with 14% body fat. I blame hamburgers, delicious delicious hamburgers....

Any way to measure body fat at home without any weird tools? I dont have a fat % scale or anything.

Not that I know of. We have a scale that measures it.

If you get me your neck & waist measurements, I can get you an approximate. That's how we measure body fat in the Navy, and I'm not entirely sure as to how accurate it is, but it is the standard for us.

So I hadn't weighed myself since Christmas, and I just got home for Spring Break. Turns out I gained ~15 pounds! 🙁 Now I'm a hefty 188lbs @ 5'11''. Sigh.

I guess I'll spend the week jogging furiously and playing a lot of basketball.

Can some other fat people cheer me up?

Instead of stuffing your face while running on a hamster wheel, consider the types of foods you eat and the portion sizes of them. Here's a hint: If you eat the right types of food, you won't need calorie counting or have to control portion sizes, and you won't be hungry all the time.
