Admittedly I know that I am overweight and am in the painful throes of doing something about it but bloody hell??! Anthony Joshua is the world heavyweight boxing champion (I wouldn't have known this until I read it in a paper today). He is 6ft (that's SIX FOOT) 6, weighs 17 stone 7 and consumes 4,500-5000 calories a day when in training.
I'm 5ft 4 and weigh 13st 2. It's fat, I know, and I know the waist to height ratio is in some ways MORE worrying than the weight itself as a predictor of diabetes etc.and hardly any of my 'girth' is muscle, and I'm a woman and we're different etc. etc. But my waist is 2 inches bigger than this 'man-mountain'.
I need to get myself down the nearest Boxing gym!
