I give you all until about age 24-25, when that teen metabolism slows down and every poun of food you eat will add two to your weight.

I technically have a 31" waist, but since most stores around here don't carry odd sizes, I have to settle for 32" plus a belt.

I've been hearing that since I was 15. I'm now pushing 31.

If my family is anything to go by, it will just get worse. My grandad and my uncle are both 6' 5" and lean as hell. Admittedly I have my dads height issue (hes 5' 5").

I'm 26 and starting to see it now. Over the past year I gained about 10 pounds and I am still eating the same. I usually stay around the 170 pound range and now I am averaging 180 pounds. Before this I could lose weight real quick but now running 2 miles three times a week hasn't done anything.

Yup, was eating like a pig and never gained any weight until 22-23, and then my eating habits hit... hard... :)
Ah, the ability to eat your weight in food every day without it showing... *sigh*
Some things are soooo wasted on the young... :P

Heh, I suddenly find myself overweight, for the first time in my life. :bangwall:

Surprisingly, for a guy who literally can't do most cardio exercises, I'm right on target at 6' and 190.

What, 6' and 190?

I forgot to mention that I have about a half inch clearance on either side of my shoulders going through regular sized doors. Wide frame + lower center of mass + training = most tall guys are going flying.

Well for one, I'm one of those annoying thin as a stick 'cool' kids with tight fitting jeans, long hair and bloody plimsoles for shoes (strangely enough, tight jeans are surprisingly comfortable. Either I have no package, or its uniquely designed).

And two, my family where I get most of my looks and figure from, my mothers, all the men are rake thin and always have been.

What's funny is I seem to be a giant here and yet I'm one of the smaller men in my family.

I'm 5'8 and 2*mumble mumble*. Turns out my meds make me a ravenous man-beast. I would commit unspecified acts of violence to get to my weight out of Basic: 145lbs with a six pack.
