I had to lose 150 pounds myself. I dont miss her one bit. She didnt like guns anyway..
I try to stick with the basics, they do so well. Nothing fancy mind you, just plain jane will get it done with style.

I hear if you have hip replacement or knee replacement they can make you taller.
No.
My brother was 6'4" for a long time. Knees got really bad, went to 6'2", maybe 6'1". He got both knees replaced & is back where he started.
OTOH, I have gone from a 9 med to an 11 wide in shoe size in the last 25 years. News flash, my feet are the only thing increasing. DAMMIT.
3"? That's some *thick* cartilage!

About 15 years ago, a doctor told me I was obese. At 6'1" and 196 lbs at the time - I informed him that I had been called a LOT of things in my life, but never obese. He told me that I was border-line, but on the obese side. I asked why he didn't measure my wrists, as in the past - and was informed "We don't do that anymore" I measure 11" around the wrists - yes, "big boned" Bones are more dense than muscle, which is more dense than fat. Nobody takes this into account, here in the "new days"

The fella in the middle seat had a bit of a belly but really filled that space! He was the 747 of seat mates!

I guess I was blessed with good genetics. I’ve worn the same size for 20 years.

Grew tired of the issue and decided to get some scales I could trust. Dumbest damned thing I ever did.
Seriously, got a set from a Japanese firm named Tonita. Less than $100 and excellent. Plus, WeightWatchers ....

Post a picture of yourself and we will see if all the weight is from dense bones,or poor diet.

All a man has to do is cut out "the old carbohydrates and glucose" and get ready to buy smaller pants. You will lose a bunch of weight fast.....its mostly "just water" which is another name for nasty inflammation.
