This is a stupid poll. What's the point if there are only extremes? I'm not obese, I'm not fat nor overweight at all. I'm not a toothpick either, though. Where's the option for "I'm in respectable physical condition"?

Edit: I take it back :p

Yeah right. You're asking AnandTech Off Topic nefs to be serious? Good luck.

lol, typical computer forum responses
divided evenly between skinny as a tooth pick and overweight :D

I'm about the right weight for my height, although I am tall(6'2") for my age(16) I am a pretty well built guy though

6'1 and 155-160lbs. Varies but is always right there. Doc said I'll never have to worry about being overweight because of a medical problem :) Some problem where I don't absorb everything, including fats :D

hrmf. AnandTech population must have changed SIGNIFICANTLY in past two month.

Someone had a poll up on "do you need to gain/maintain/lose weight" polls and I think need to gain weight had the greatest of all votes. So far, overweight is leading this poll

I'm in between 6' and 6'1", probably closer to 6'1". I weigh roughly 165. I am thin but I wouldn't say that I am sickly thin, except in my wrists, is there any way to gain wrist weight? Other than that I am quite athletic and surprisingly strong for my size. Represent!

Sometimes my belly looks like it's overweight due to too much beer, but the rest of me is just fine.

Now, you, on ther other hand, are a greasy, obese, fat pig! Admit it. Why else would you start a thread like this unless to salve your guilt and inadequacies?

Go on the Lindora diet. I hear it's supposed to be pretty good.

I've got a bit of a beer belly, but I don't consider that overweight at all. I can say that because almost everyone around here has a small beer belly. :D It's actually not even noticible unless I've got my shirt off.

Man, people tell me to get fatter because I look too skinny...is that bad? I personally don't think I look unhealthy, but I'm thin.

[shrugs] Oh, well [/shrugs]

I'm 6'2" and I weigh 250. I voted obese, though I would not say I am "extremely" obese yet because it is not all fat. Give me a few years and then I am sure I will qualify.

Yes. I drink too much beer and I haven't been out on a bicycle for awhile, because I, well, haven't bought a new one yet. I refuse to fix my old one because it's too old and it's just not fun anymore.

New bike for me: $800. That's no small purchase for a college drop-out who isn't quite making $30,000/yr just doing blue collar kinds of things.

I'm 5'10" 197. I was up to around 208, but I've lost 11 pounds in the past two months. I'm trying to get down to around 185-190.
