A giggle-- I'm helping an employee enroll into health plans, and reviewing the forms filled out. One form asks for weight/height. This guy he is claiming he is 5'9" and 132#. The beer belly alone blows that out of the water. I know I'm smaller and I'm 230! I'd venture to guess he added an inch or two to his height as well.

I thought it was cute though-- i thought only women lied about their weight.

Peachpie - I love you. U R 2 funny. I needed a little light heartedness. I'm starting a class called Mindful Eating and now eating takes concentration. So I needed a laugh.

It's funny in which way people will lie. Years ago, the Celtics had a team picture. One player was listed as 7'1/2" tall, while another, clearly taller, was 6'11". Since being taller is a plus for pro basketball players, he was asked why he didn't list himself as his real height, 7'2" or so.

"Because if you're over 7 feet tall, you're a freak. Being 6'11", I'm not a freak" he said.

6'3" tall, male.

Highest weight was 475. RNY on 08/21/12. Current weight: 198.

Men do seem to have trouble with quite a few of their measuring skills, wink wink! Kinda like the size of fish they catch, always a little bigger than they look.
