    I've actually lost weight, I'm now 62kg, odd, because CBs' cooking is great, ce la vie!

    I dropped under 98kg tonight Roy..>>>>>>>><<<<<<<<..

    For men: Calculate 106 pounds for the first 5 feet (60 inches) of height. Add 6 pounds for every additional inch. So, if John is 5 feet 11 inches tall, ideally he would weigh 172 pounds, or stay within a weight range of plus or minus 10% or 155 to 189 pounds.

    ....depends on size, weight, resistance and metabolism

    Yep,coming up to 65 years,metabolism is slowing down Ben..>>>>>>>><<<<<<<<..

    Not very much. but good exercise. probably less than 60.
