Fat shamer! I'm telling mummy!

A fellow man of great nutrition I see.

Are we competing for the ultimate big mama of Retrobike title?

I'm 308lbs, dare you challenge?

I'd give you a good run for your money, a couple of years back I was 336lb but I was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes so to keep all my limbs intact I dropped quite a few lbs...

Glad you've dropped some and are looking after your health mate. I've been down to my ideal weight once in my life but regained it all and a bit extra for good measure. I keep active every day and happily walk or cycle for hours, so just a matter of stopping the after drink snacking for me.

I am fortunate to be happy in my own skin though, even though sometimes it's scary to think that my partner weighs about as much as 1 and a half of my thighs I reckon..... Haha

Yes I have to think before I eat now, I also walk loads and cycle and have started to help on a care farm, so that all helps, also at 53 I guess I am a fair bit older than you? Lucky you she is definately a keeper...

Yeah, folks that can afford to not think before they eat something are rather lucky. Sounds good about the care farm, I've heard such initiatives are great for mental health. I love tending to stuff and manual labour, gardening can be rather therapeutic for me. I struggle a lot with mental health, which you may be aware of from my postings in on the recent threads on mental health.

Yeah, I belong to the what I imagine is a smaller minority dragging the age average of Retrobike down by a fair bit. I am 27.

And yeah the better half is definitely a keeper, having struggled with so many issues both mentally and physically, I'd have been a lot worse off had I traversed all that on my own.

It is quite well known that I have had some struggles with my mental health too, sorry to hear that you are the same, especially at 27... The Farm is great and has probably saved my life, I started on a healthy eating course and now I am helping to run one, I do the cooking... It is great fun and has made me feel worthwhile again. Bless her for helping you, I think you are fantastic.

It is a fair few that don't struggle somewhat these days I reckon, the recognition of mental health struggles has allowed it to surface more as well, which is a good thing. Very happy to hear that the farm has had such a profound impact on you, whatever it takes us to get to a better chapter. I've struggled since early childhood and a lot of family members struggle as well. I'm better now but I have given up on the 'finally getting good', good times should matter more and bad times can feck off.

If you ever feel a need to vent in any way do not hesitate to get in touch through PM or whatever medium you prefer, I'm well versed in the struggles of the mental kind. And good craic if I say so myself

Reckon you're pretty fantastic too mate!

Probably the best self-hijack of any thread ever, I reckon.

I love you both. As you are on here, and I bet as you are in real life, too.

PS. I want to work on a care farm! Sounds amazing. Can we start one where all the animals are replaced with beat-up old bikes that need tending to?

This is where ALL the love is at.

Group hugs and old bike tat presents

A care farm for bike enthusiasts may be the greatest idea in the story of human kind. Sign me up!

We love you too!
