Popular Post KhunLA Posted January 30 Popular Post Share Posted January 30 Both, gained, loss, gained, loss, though not different than before retirement. Although now, past 10 ish years, have a constant weight I'm quite happy with. Credit that to intermittent fasting, (daily), and stop eating around 2100-2359 hr - until about noon the next day. So 12-15 hrs, and half of that is while sleeping. Coffee and stay occupied in the AM, with no hunger desires. Easiest way I've ever maintained a steady weight, once past 35 ish years old. 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hit 100kg here, and talk about feeling uncomfortable. Been as low as 78kg, which I felt really small at. Got out of boot camp (US Army) @ 75kg. I'm comfy between 80-84kg, any bigger and I'm uncomfortable. 80kg seems to stick for past 5 years. Good to have a couple kgs extra, in case I get sick Better than too thin, in case body needs some fuel. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alanrchase Posted January 31 Share Posted January 31 Went from 68 to 74kg and had to buy some new jeans as the old ones were too tight. Couldn't get on with the fit of the new jeans so went back down to 68kg so I could fit into the old ones again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tedly Posted January 31 Share Posted January 31 I lost a little due to eating less junk food than in America, and bicycling 4-5 days a week. Lost about 2-3kg, currently at about 66kg, I'm not tall so it's a good weight for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

G Rex Posted January 31 Share Posted January 31 low 90s - same as before. I eat similar amount, drink more(!), but exercise a lot more in my gym - so that helps me maintain my status quo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

retarius Posted January 31 Share Posted January 31 About the same but somehow bigger. I've lost muscle and added an equal amount of more voluminous fat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uttradit Posted January 31 Share Posted January 31 Thai food and drinks very high in sugar unless you are picky. Not sure how you would lose more weight in Thailand based on food. Generally people over 70yo lose their appetite for eating much so it's a natural thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rwill Posted January 31 Share Posted January 31 When I first moved here the first year I lost weight. Then I started gaining it all back. For about the last year I have lost about 21 kilos. Intermitent fasting and low carb sugar. It also helped with my blood pressure, cholesterol, and blood sugar. Specially blood sugar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Negita43 Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 My best weight is 62Kg but haven't been that for years 65Kg is OK but have now crept up to 68Kg. tried to diet but my gf's cooking always wins. Couple that with my age and I think I've given up worrying! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
