I gained weight

I'm an elderly gentleman and started working from home last year.

Two years ago I was 5'9 (175.26 cm) and 135 lbs (61.235 kg).

I just weighed myself and am still the same height, but now I weigh 160 lbs (72.5748 kg)

I'm a nervous eater so it's hard for me to eat a lot in public, but when I'm at home I can eat more food because it's more convenient. I look bigger and more built than before. I think if I worked out again I would look much bigger than I used to. Do you guys think this is a good weight for me or should I lose some weight?

i say lose 10 n ur gold

just being outside and active should be enough to keep you healthy, and weight gain is normal with aging.

just do what it's healthier for you

You're on vlr at this age?
Damn that's interesting

i was in a similar scenario and accidentally developed an eating disorder so dont do that and you'll be ifne

160 is a perfectly normal weight for your height (in fact its almost the EXACT mean), but it depends on the situation you're in - if its mostly fat, then try to cut down on fat and put on some muscle through working out, which can be done through eating in a slight calorie deficit (lots of protein tho) and working out ~4-5 days a week. this will keep you at roughly the same weight but make you look more built and defined/lean
