It works, being that thin and tall. If you were over 6' that may be a real "string bean".

FWIW I am 6'2" 190.

Everyone says I have the legs for Kilt wearing.

I was going 135-140 for a long time...I'd recommend the regimen that I practiced to gain weight.

First, be sure to drink at least three beers during lunch and find your way back to the bar after work and put away at least five or six more.

Then, wait about twenty years...you'll be larger in no time. It's amazing how fast you can gain weight after you've gotten through your forties.

Remember: never pass up a bag of potato chips, a snickers bar or a big mac!

Then when you're my age you can have the joy of having to loose at least ten to fifteen pounds just so you can be light enough to start running without your knees getting trashed.

Best

Okay....anyone with a waist number below 34 should not mention it on this list if they value their life!

130 pounds? For the love of all that's holy EAT SOMETHING! You'll be happier!

If I tell you how I eat you're just going to get madder.

Welcome to the Small Kilt Wearers Association! I'm 5'8,145lbs. with a 30" waist.

I bought a Stillwatewr 2006 standard in that tartan and it is one of my favorites. Hope you get it. It might be a tad long on you at 5'7" though. Oh yes, I'm another big fan of Robert A Heinlen.

I was like that myself for years and years. 120 lbs, 28" waist, and I could devour anything I saw and never gain weight. Women HATED me. :rolleyes:

Now I'm 160-165 lbs, 34" waist, but I eat alot differently than I used to. Very little junk food now, my wife makes very nutritious meals.
