    I don't know what I weigh.

    I generally judge how well I've been eating lately by waistband tightness and the visible vascularity of my forearms.

    Though I did get the BMI talk from a medical student that was doing my history when I was admitted to hospital because the calculation says "overweight".

    I have a naturally small frame, I hate it. I have trouble exercising my shoulders due to injuries, and they're naturally not broad which just amplifies it

    so the mathematical condition "x >= 1" expresses "x is more than or equal to one". in common english, assuming the value 1 was a proper value for x, we might associate this with the words "x is sufficient" or "x is enough"

    is there a similar word for the condition "x <= 1" or "x is up to but not more than this amount"?

    obviously it's "X SUX"

    What you think "makes sense" has nothing to do with reality. It just has to do with your life experience. And your life experience may only be a small smidgen of reality. Possibly even a distorted account of reality at that. So what this means is that, beginning in the 20th century as our means of decoding nature became more and more powerful, we started realizing our common sense is no longer a tool to pass judgment on whether or not a scientific theory is correct. - Neil Degrasse Tyson

    There's no living with a killing. There's no goin' back from one. Right or wrong, it's a brand... a brand sticks. There's no goin' back. Now you run on home to your mother and tell her... tell her everything's alright. And there aren't any more guns in the valley.

    :(

    Do you even lift?

    Because if not, you should. And run. The actual mechanisms of getting into shape are not complicated; it's the discipline and time commitment that holds people back, imo (myself included).

    yes

    though on a hiatus due to exams and going on holiday next week

    i'll be back into lifting and eating right at the start of june

    Not in a depressed "I'm playing video games to just pass the time" kind of way, but in this really engrossed "HOLY SHIT I LOVE THIS GAME" kind of way and then I'm like "oh fuck it's 5 am"

    You'll lose it with time. It's not "skin" -- it's subcutaneous fat that is, iirc, the last type of fat you generally lose.

    The older you get and the more skin you have the less likely it will spring back to taut.

    In other words, lose weight while you are young.
