Getting to 420kg without dying doesn’t sound that easy. It’s over half an F1car! You aren’t gonna be leaving you reinforced bed without a lot of help for a much of the time.
Congrats, keep it up! I was 121 at my heaviest (many years ago), now at 95. Not perfect (180+ cm tall), but at least I found a weight I can maintain without an unreasonable daily effort
You don't have to be a little person to weigh 123lbs, just skinny. I'm average height and have always been super boney and the only way I've ever been able to gain weight was by working out. I weighed about 125ish almost my entire adult life, and only in the last couple of years as I became able to bike 100 miles a week did I squeak past 130
Yeah it's weird, I was just being lazy with wording, but now I want to defend BMI a little since it's not that stupid. (I meant to say he didn't look like the stereotypical image of a morbidly obese person, which in hindsight isn't very productive)
It's true that BMI is only useful for "normal" people, which excludes pro-athletes/body builders with a lot more muscle than the average person, and people with conditions that affect their weight. For the vast majority of people, it's a useful metric for overall health. Anyone who cares about longevity and quality of life shouldn't ignore it just because it's uncomfortable to think about or "seems wrong" based on some self assessments. Obviously, there's a lot of stigma around being labelled as obese, but people are judgy assholes about everything. What's basically guaranteed, though, is that if you do lose weight to reach a "healthy" BMI, you will feel a lot better physically (and probably also mentally). Pains you didn't even realize you had will go away, you'll have more energy, etc.
I'm not saying you should lose weight, idgaf. Your life isn't mine, and I'm not here to give unsolicited advice. I just feel compelled to add some extra context so people don't draw hasty conclusions.
I'm currently a little heavy, I'm not going to lie. But I haven't always been. And even when I was really thin all the following was still true. I'm I'm only 5'10" (1.78m for the rest of you). But I wear 2xl gloves. I wear a 3xl motorcycle helmet. I have siize 13.5 us feet (EU 48-49). Usually people have a wingspan pretty close to their height, sometimes a little less or a little more. But my wingspan is just over 6'5" (1.96 m) which is 7" or 18cm bigger than my height. My leg bones are way thicker than average, almost freakishly so. Even when I was in marathon running condition, and even at my medium height I could dunk a basketball, I was technically right on the edge of obese by BMI standards. I beat our schools presidential physical fitness record when I was 14. I could stack all of the plates on the leg press machine easily, our football team guys couldn't do it. BMI is a load of shit for some of us.
I can't get over how your legs look in the reflection. looks like you're wearing super tight shorts and your legs are squeezing out where they stop. kinda the upside down version of a muffin top
Yeah it looks weird as fuck, and my front knee looks off to the side somehow. Gotta admit though it was really flattering to my muffin top so im not complaining 🤣
This is one of my pet peeves - fraudulent scales. There's no way in Hell that bathroom scale is that accurately measuring your weight. Yet it just displays it anyway to make the item feel more luxurious or high end than it really is.
Every scale has certain limitations on accuracy. A bathroom scale is just no where near the cost of a scale that can precisely measure to five significant figures.

I used wegovy a few times and it was fine but i just couldnt do the needle anymore, im a giant pussy with that stuff. I tried pills but they didnt have too much of an effect. Just trying willpower atm now
My knowledge of Roman numerals is insufficient to decode it but my weight's been "ERR" for years.
it stands for Exquisite Rad Radial. It just means you're fuckin awesome.
Or at least their tires are 🤷
U got me :D
Next step? 543,21kg
That also would be perfect!
Make sure you get a photo of 420.69 on the way up
Don't be so harsh! I'd accept 432,10 kg
Easy mode: 420kg
Hard mode: 4.20kg

Daaaaaaam nice
You’re not really that weight though, the phone adds some. Sorry to have to inform you of this.
....omg the phone's weight on the scales
That reflection does not look like 123kg to me, how??
Well of course not, the reflection is weightless, its the person who has weight
I'm 190cm and sure, a bit chubby, but easily break the 120kg mark
Unless you're made of solid muscle, you may want to do some self reflection because 120kg at 190cm is pretty well into the range of clinical obesity.
I look into a mirror all the time
Jokes aside, you're right, I should probably lose some weight. But it's really not as bad as you might think
I’m 1m85 and have been at 65kg most of my life. I’m closer to 70kg now. You’re almost double my weight.
We should try to find someone half my weight (30kg) and someone double yours (240kg) and we could hangout, maybe create a secret society or something.
We could call the group 'The Daltons' 😂
A bit?
If anything like me, just tall
Aye?
That's amazing, that's the same weight as my luggage!
....im assuming your luggage is pretty heavy lol
Why didn't somebody tell me my luggage was so big?!
Sorry sir, I'm doing my best
Who made that man a luggage packer?
We're talk'n bout' pee pees yeh?
It's a Spaceballs reference
Ah ok yeh nah never seen it
It's not too late to check it out.
Never seemed like my flavour lol
That's almost 300lbs! The reflection rules out morbidly obese, so are you tall as fuck, jacked as fuck, or both?
Probs just fat as fuck. I weighed myself a couple of months ago and saw 145kg and knew I gotta sort out my weight out. Im average height
damn. well congrats on the progress so far
hope it goes well. your knees and ankles will thank you
Yeh cheers mate
Congrats, keep it up! I was 121 at my heaviest (many years ago), now at 95. Not perfect (180+ cm tall), but at least I found a weight I can maintain without an unreasonable daily effort
Nice one mate, yeah im 185cm and thats the weight i was kinda aiming for
People have lost the plot on what is morbidly obese.
To most people obese is healthy and healthy is dangerously underweight.
My dumb ass American mind assumed that scale was in pounds and I though the guy was a little person until I saw your comment

The reflection absolutely does not rule out morbidly obese. It is by definition morbidly obese. The bmi scale does not care about muscle mass.
Yeah I know it's stupid. I'm also ridiculously categorized as morbidly obese. I'm quite a bit lighter than that though.
Not necessarily. If he's 7'4" or taller he'd have a healthy BMI!
Don't forget morfans!

I'm 6'3" and was close to 300lb at one point, but since I had a decent amount of muscle before getting fat I didn't look morbidly obese.
im 6'4 an i was around 270-280 lb qn looked like a tree
800.85 or gtfo

gotta look at the positives :D
Also almost matches my duo lingo streak too lol
Now stick to it
yes daddy
Go back to bed. You've already won. The day can't possibly get any better from here.
Nah i lost a little bit more weight so now the numbers are fucked :(
Objectively, better.
This is one of my pet peeves - fraudulent scales. There's no way in Hell that bathroom scale is that accurately measuring your weight. Yet it just displays it anyway to make the item feel more luxurious or high end than it really is.
Lol yeah i take it with a grain of salt and just focus on how my clothes fit better
Could you please explain why bathroom scales aren’t accurate? I love to learn and this is new to me.
A scale is a scale right?
Every scale has certain limitations on accuracy. A bathroom scale is just no where near the cost of a scale that can precisely measure to five significant figures.
I know what you mean but I can’t help but joke
“Dolly Parton, Keanu Reeves, who are the other 3 significant figures it can’t accurately weigh
I expected a brain in that reflection
I checked so many times for that before posting lol
The ultimate power move was if there was something we couldn't unsee in the reflection
Haha i checked for so long
Like trying to sell a mirror.
I don't see the appeal of that sequence of numbers.
Now try for trips.
?
Old 4chan meme where posts were given a numerical value and users would try to guess/game doubles or triples for the last 2-3 digits in the string. It usually came with a stipulation, like "trips and I x". Haven't lurked in a looong time, so dunno if it's still a thing. Might be showing my age.
Ah ok ive never used 4chan
123 lb isn’t very heavy at all!
No sane person uses imperial. This is 2026, not 1826. Also it says kg.
Dunno what lb is mate lol
Four QPs.
lbs = pounds
It doesn't make much sense to me but, American English....
And the scale is set for kilograms.
Lb = Libra (Latin)
Min does 2 decimal points, but the last digit only shows 5-gram-increments. 80.00 -> 80.05 -> 80.10 and so on.
What are your thoughts on using Wegovy or Zepbound? Have you thought about asking a doctor for the prescription?
I used wegovy a few times and it was fine but i just couldnt do the needle anymore, im a giant pussy with that stuff. I tried pills but they didnt have too much of an effect. Just trying willpower atm now
Losing weight without the Rx is amazing. I have lost about 100 pounds on zepbound but do worry about what would happen if I stopped.
Good on ya mate. Yeah im just sticking to a diet of homecooked meals with mostly salads and small portion sizes so it hopefully becomes the new normal
19 stone
My dude, counting in stones are for rookies. OP weighs approximately 7 × 10⁸ grains of sand
I have no idea what that is
About 123 Kilo
Closer to 123.5!
oh Tomtits probably uses Imperial measurements
it's 69673.1296433 drachms
Ahhhh see that makes way more sense
I wasn't aware that there were household scales with that level of precision, to 5 significant figures.
Yeah mate, just a $50 set of digital scales off Amazon
When you are heavy or short, the little bits seem to matter.
Always concerned when someone is trapped inside a reflection. Try tapping the inside of an ankle by 123.45 times
Lose weight till you're at 69.42
ayyyyy
your life is now complete
Time Fixings! Eat em up!
At first I assumed it was in lbs and was like "wow, you're tiny" and that didn't seem right so I zoomed in and went "wow, you're huge"
Thank you for approving
How tall are you? If I was down to 120 I would be near death.
Yeah its in kgs mate
That explains a lot lol. For the record I think America should switch to metric but until we do I thinks in freedom units.
And that seems heavy for the person depicted. Doesn't look to me to be approx 270lbs?
Bruh you’re replying to OP lol
How tall do you have to be for 120kg to be near death?
I didn’t realize we were using metric. I was thinking 120 Big Macs. My mistake.
That's only a healthy weight if you have 4 feet.
I mean… we have hands because we evolved for most species they are feet. We kinda do have 4 feet
Savage! I'm a 1/2 lb off
A what?
Lb = pounds in American
Nice man, i dont know what means coz we use kgs here though lol
It's not the perfect weight unless you are between 2.23 and 2.58 metres tall...
or possess any amount of muscle whatsoever
I have a bit of muscle but probs nothing to justify the weight lol
how tall are you?
185cm
Lol dont take what i said literally mate
Same 😜
