Subject: What should I eat?

I lost 2.5 stone in the last 4 months.

Had to go cold turkey on booze for 2 months.

Also lots of bike riding, tennis and squash.

I was over 16 stone which just wasn't healthy for a 6 footer.

Yeah ive just been running and playing football been doing about 30 miles a week running and playing football twice. So really enjoying it as ive now joined a running club and been doing a fair few races.

I kind of watch what i eat but am now at a stage where i need to eat a fair bit due to the amount of exercise.

Same here. I eat 2600 calories whilst dieting.

why eat anything

I'm too skinny for my liking but I can't seem to be able to do anything about it no matter how much I eat because of my metabolism and the fact that I play a lot of tennis and football. I'm small anyway, about 5"5/6, but I only weigh 8 stone. And it doesn't even mean that I'm fit because I have an abnormality in my rib cage which restricts airflow so I run out of breath really easily.

don't worry mate, one of the reasons is that your still young i wasn't really able to put on muscle until i reached about 20.

Nah, it's just lack of calories. Teens (depending on metabolism and exercise levels) can eat upwards of 7000 calories a day and not put fat on. To eat that much food is very, very hard, though. I eat 3500-4000 when I am trying to gain, and I feel sick quite a lot of the time.
Then I spend two months boozing and lose all that I gained. Damn beer.

8 stone is quite a lot for only 5 inches.

I thought he was 5 6th's of an inch.

Nah, one sixth short of 6 inches. A set up for a penis joke if anyone wants to make it.

I thought it was 5 and 5/6ths

That there was a rare case of great minds not thinking alike, or something.

fools seldom differ?

I'm agree

a gree what?

Quick, somebody think of a punchline !!!
