| I notice that whenever someone, my wife and I included, loses weight they look much younger. I'm 27, so no big deal yet, but for those of you that "feel" old, lose a few pounds and you'll look younger for sure!

| That holds true when you're relatively young, but not when you're older. My dad, currently 68, recently lost a bunch of weight. His face developed a lot more wrinkles and he looked much older. It was pretty freaky for me to see. I agree with you for younger or middle-aged people, though.

Losing excess body fat to me just seems reasonable on many levels. My clothes are purchased based on what I feel makes me look OK for my weight. I have a few pairs of jeans and mostly wear black polos. I've tried button up shirts and lighter colors etc. but nothing seems to sit right like a plain black polo. So for me it'd be really nice to be able to have more clothing choices for sure! |

| My wife (who is in much better shape than I) is always cold in our house. Instead of her watching TV under a blanket in the middle of July, maybe I should be raising the thermostat a few degrees. In a similar vein, I could start spending time outside when the temperature is above 70 degrees Farenheit (21 Celsius.) |

| Mantiki, I doubt your wife is cold due to her superior physical condition. The consensus is that women everywhere tend to be cold when their male counterparts are comfortable. That's certainly the case in my house. It's the middle of summer here and if you were to inspect my wife's car, you'd find her jacket easily accessible on the rear seat. Still, a bit of compromise is always a good idea.

| I live at the bottom end of the scale, weight-wise. If I'd loose weight, I would be very worried indeed, as I -unlike the vast majority of people- have trouble gaining weight. According to all those BM indexes, I am underweight (measuring 176 cm and weighing just 55 kg). But there is little I can do... if I eat more, my body will just turn up the burner... I guess I am doomed to remain skinny and wear double sweaters in the winter. Poor me Jim.
