To quote in kilogrammes, there will always be a decimal point, but with pounds, it is always in a full number;[/quote]
Not really.

Yes, I understand and thatâs fine. My children, now aged 40+, used metric (actually SI) and thatâs an age thing I suppose.

Hi
When you get weighted now in Hospital it is in Kilos.
That is the way of life now.

On the question of either metric or Imperial for weights / measures doesnât anyone remember the problems with the EU over this? It went on for long enough, even down to at one time both having to be displayed. See the link below showing the heading âEU gives up on âmetric Britainââ:

Susie, donât forget you have been inactive for most of that time, and maybe hubby has stayed home with you, but still eating a lot. I am sure when you get back on your feet you could get back to your ideal weight.

At 6 foot I come in at 185lbs. Was up to 210lbs because of lockdown and laziness. Not I got it back under control.

I remember it well.Luddites in my opinion. I feel the same about American units in the electrical industry. Itâs a mishmash. The world knows it is - except USA, Liberia, and Myanmar.
Yeah, but its a fait accompli in that if we wish/need to carry on driving, we have to pay the asking price at the pumps. We can moan and debate all we like, but the price will not change.

How much do I weigh? Far too much to be healthy I suspect but, since we havenât any bathroom scales ⊠
Iâve been overweight for at least the last 15 years.

If you are happy at the weight you are, what does it matter. Just so long as you are comfortable in your own skin, keep living the way that you are.
My daughters are always mentioning about âI really should loose a few pounds Dadâ but if they do lose some weight, they should do so because the want to and not because the feel they should.
