Quick update!!

Slimming World so far is going well, I've lost 10.5lbs in two weeks!!

Just hope I can be a good boy over the xmas period

Wow well done! It's taken me 6 weeks to lose the same! I too am following the SW plan. Christmas keeps getting in the way! Still, I have managed to lose something every week! Gotta keep going!
 
I have to disagree with this. My husband is 5' 8", and has always been between 9 and 10.5 stone. At the lower end he does look thin, but over 10 stone he starts to look a bit tubby. 11 stone would be far too much for him. Perhaps if your son really does look thin, you are underestimating his height by a fair bit?😉
Now that is interesting. I'll have to ask my son how tall he is! He definitely looks too thin, so yes maybe he is taller. I suppose people's skeletons/build has to be taken into consideration too.
 
Excellent.
 
My BMI is at the top of the healthy range. I am 5.10 & weigh 12 stone. I have developed such a bony bum that I cant sit on a hard seat at all. Also my hands look like skeletons now.

Ha! yeah, me too - I've also had to grow a beard to cover up my wrinkly neck, also got a stomach that looks like a Shar pei 's face:
