    Guilty, although I would never have described myself as an athlete, just an enthusiastic amateur.

    I started to wimp out after a series of injuries culminating in a fused disc in the lower spine, however I really can't blame these for the weight gain, but rather the multiple kebabs/piazzas/pies/macca's eaten throughout the nightshift for the last six years.

    i think i gained the most weight when i quit running . i was 37. then i started working on this ship and you move around a lot less than a job on land. i put on 40-50 pounds in an amazingly short amount of time

    I'm one of those. I still wish there was a way I could strap on the equipment and play defensive tackle again.

    What job did you do on a ship?
