Glad to hear that - I was just over 6 stone then, with a waist size of 26"...
Non too fat for a 6 footer !
I too am slightly heavier now..

A woman once tried that, and almost succeeded - she was about your weight too !
No surprise then that Kate, my wife is only small - she is 45 kilos - not bad after having 2 kids and only a kilo more than she was when we met. I am closer to double that now..
