    "rather trim" and "HGV spread", "man boobs" don't really go together, do
    they.

    Exercise and eat/drink less is the only thing that's going to work.

    Running for about 30 minutes on a modest incline will burn off about 400
    calories if you weigh 75kg so a pint takes about 20 minutes running to
    burn off...

    In the traditional sense, no, however I'm still rather a skinny git but
    with a beer gut.
    Well quite.

    That's exactly what I'd say to someone else in my position. I've already
    stopped eating the ice creams and pies (almost) but the challenge is
    going to be the after-work drinkies.

    I used to be a gym member and was starting to see the benefits when I
    stopped going.

    4 stone I lost, in a little over four months.

    I'm going to join again when I finally get a tuit.

    A job that includes physical work might be a help.

    I manage to get by on a diet of bacon and egg sandwiches for
    breakfast, pie and chips for dinner, hotel or pub food for my evening
    meal and a sensible amount of beer every night.

    If the beer level creeps too high then the evening meal changes to a
    pizza or a kebab as I walk back to wherever I'm staying. I also
    indulge in 'food on the run' such as sandwiches, scotch eggs, pork
    pies if I'm driving to site and get hungry.

    Be serious.

    *sigh* I really miss fucking about on quarries with machinery. That
    felt like a proper job.

    That's probably because it _was_ a proper job. I don't like working in
    quarries because I always end up in the dampest parts of the quarry in
    the middle of winter.

    Switch to spirits.

    I always find that when the (bad) mood takes me and I start hitting
    Vodka that the weight just falls off me (lost 3 or so stone in
    feb/march/april).

    Could that be because you drop meals and get pissed instead?

    I'm just a naturally healthy person.

    My father and grandfather were of a similar build to me and I work in
    an environment where I'm constantly climbing over pipes, going up and
    down ladders and walking to the canteen. If you then add in the fact
    that I spent years participating in sports that needed a very high
    level of physical fitness to be any good then you end up with someone
    who doesn't look like Mr Blobby.

    I fully accept that smoking rollies and drinking beer every day of the
    week can't possibly be doing me any good but I really don't care. If I
    weighed 13st or more then I'd start to worry about my lifestyle but I
    don't so I don't iyswim.

    You laugh but my brother was skinny as a rake when he found out he had
    worms. He took the medicine and instantly put on 4 stone. He's now
    about 16 stone and really unhealthy despite being a scaffolder.
