> Being fat was no longer so feted. Membership at fat men's clubs began to dwindle, as did waistlines. For instance, at the last meeting of the New England Fat Men's Club, in 1924, only 38 members showed up, none of whom met the 200-pound mark, Tafrate reports.
Ouch. I'm about 235 and 6'3" (190cm). I haven't seen the other side of 200 since 1993
