Merry Christmas! I don't either I will however pay attention on pigging out today. Then it's to the gym in the morning for a good 4 mile run and hitting the weights. Live it up.
Practically everybody weighs more than I do at 187-188 CM/6'1.5"-6'2" (at 140 pounds) here in St. Louis, and nearly everybody weighs more than I do (unless they are like 5'1"-5'2"). I notice people who probably would weigh in at 200-250 pounds (if their doctor was to weigh them) all the time, but they rarely seem to be above 6 feet tall when they do. I certainly feel as if I'm thin compared to the average person here, and I would easily get destroyed on a Football field (or in a wrestling match) against nearly all of them.
You're thin compared to the average person anywhere. I'm not saying that it's a bad thing, but, at my thinnest, I was around 145 lbs and 5'9'' tall. I've probably put on about 5-7 lbs since then, but I'm still, on average, fitting into size 29 jeans in the waist. Some brands I still wear a 28.
I can only imagine how small your jean size must be. Are you one of those mythical people that actually fits into those 26 inch jeans?
Being 6 ft tall and 155 lbs, I feel like I'm skinny no matter where I go, but I don't feel that out of place with my weight around here.
Im in my late 30s and weigh 170 lbs @ 6'3" tall. When I got married I was 147 lbs. Although I gained over 25 lbs over the last 15 years.......I am still thinner than most.

Thats weird. I am ~140lb and 6ft tall, and I wear size 31/32 jeans depending on the brand. I definitely feel skinny compared to others, but hey, at least I can run up several flights of stairs without gasping for breath...
6'1 and 155 lbs....but I eat whatever I want and while I stay fairly active I don't really "exercise" a whole lot. I'd be worried I have a tapeworm but I've been that way my whole life!
I'm underweight but I live in an area that is pretty health conscious and probably under the national average rate of obesity. I don't pay that much attention to the weight of those around me though.
It's funny. When I lived in Cambridge, MA, I was about 5'10" and 190lbs. In Cambridge, and most of the inner suburbs of Boston I was definitely on the bigger side. Then I'd visit my hometown near the NH border and suddenly I was slim
I've only lived in the city of Boston, New York, and in close-in suburbs of NY. I feel like in general, both the city of Boston in general and the areas of NYC I frequent (Brooklyn, Queens, and Manhattan) have lower than average levels of obesity. Almost all of the obese people in either city are seemingly lower-income and racial minorities, but I think even their populations are a lot less obese than they'd be if they'd lived somewhere else. I notice in traveling to suburban areas outside of NY, and other cities like Houston and some in Florida how much fatter the average person is.
