Usually I find American Smalls are about the size of a Medium here.. I wear girls sizes though, I'm tiny! My big Sera shirt is really comfy and big though so whatever.

Joke? Americans wear bigger sizes than us. Period. Even when they don't mean to.

I'm pretty sure the sizes have been shrinking over the years here. Prolly saves a half a penny per thousand on materials or something. I've lost tons (well, at least a stone or two) of weight in the last decade, but my shirt sizes haven't changed. And the really big sizes have more 'X's than a porno movie....

(How much *is* a stone anyway? That and 'knots' - can't find convertors for some units *anywhere*! And who the hell uses 'knots' outside of limited professional fields anyway? It's technical jargon fercryinoutloud. I think I'll strangle the next weather-shmuck who tries to sound smart by saying 'knots'....)

oh my god that makes me so ashamed of myself.....How tall are you exactly??

Whenever I worked at Wendy's a couple years back I gained so much weight that I was around 135lbs. I'm barely 5'...and I think that's only when I'm wearing shoes. My normal weight is 110-115 which is what I weigh currently...and I'm still very much out of shape...

I have found memories when the army checked me for recruit traning. When you get there they split you up in groups and let you do diffrent casual test to check if you are fitting to do the training. And my first test was fysical. It started with that they check my lenght and weigth.... And, well... I was the first guy to leave that day. :)

i am twelve stories tall and weigh about the same as five dump trucks.

this may be an exaggeration, but it sure feels like this when i try to buy clothes. why is the store called "Big AND Tall" when they actually mean "Big OR Tall"??? forgive me for being both tall AND wide shouldered!

Aw squeek, we've seen yer pitchers, yew ain't got nothin' to be ashamed of!

I'm around 6'2"/185cm, varying from 6'1"-6'5"(183-193cm) depending on time of day & just how springy my spine happens to be atm.... I used to weigh something like 265 lb/151 kg back in college. I don't look at scales much any more but I've lost a lot; a while back I checked & it was down to 200 lb/90 kg, & I'd guess it's gone down since (clothes keep getting looser anyway!)

Unfortunately the main reason seems to be that living in Iowa has me in such a funk I've got very little appetite. Oh well, let it never be said that depression is *all* bad ;)

(& really, how much IS a stone?)

I dropped 3 pounds! :D
But in merchandising related news...
I dun came up with 3 more moves... :tooth:

Azure Magic: Feint Shining Wizard, low angle butterfly kick to the back of the head (think low ki's Black Magic)

Without End Special: Asai DDT (optional rope run) into a rear naked choke.

And my finisher:
ONE F'N THOUSAND!
Running, head and arm, inverted muscular bomb into a sit out DDT.

You lay the other guy out, near the end of a match, grab the legs and set up for the move. Look to the crowd and go "1 2 3! ONE F'N THOUSAND!" and run to the opposite side of the ring to apply the move.
