I aint telling my weight under any circumstances but the "impossible to miss" comment made me laugh. I am going to the Mohegan Sun Concert with someone I have never met, but who's nickname is "Morris the Fat". Lord knows I'm no one to talk, but I imagine he/we will be hard to miss. I do feel sorry for the people in the seats near us, he asked me to get aisle seats but I couldnt find one within reasonable distance of the stage so I advised him to start dieting immediately.

I cant believe that everyone is actually posting this. Isnt this tabu for most people? lol

I am 5'11'' and weigh about 168.

I've lost about 50 lbs since around this time 2006. I think I'm around 165 n0w. I was very, very unhappy back then and would just stuff my pie-hole with all the wrong stuff (donuts, cakes, pie, bottles of Coca-Cola) etc. Horrendous. Oh, and never exercise either.
I decided to try to take control, and I think I did a good job so far.
I cut back on sweets and fat dramatically, only eating them as occasional treats. I eat loads of fiber, fruits and veggies. Plus, I do TONS of walking for exercise. True, I probably should do some weight-bearing exercise too, or get my heart rate up higher. But, it seems to be working and I feel great.
I actually had to be worked up at a cardiologist at one point: I used to get chest pains from climbing stairs and other exertion. Arteries are clear based on a catheterization they did, and he said "try to lose some weight".

p.s, I'm around 5' 10"

WHAT????? I am SOOO out of here!!!

[chriskisn]

5'10 and about 250 pounds, although working on that (the weight not the height).

[Fiver]

Haha, I wish I could work on the height. I'm 5 and a half feet and weigh 130. The red beans and rice are worth it.

No way. I think you're perfect at your height. I like tall hunkish men over puny ones.

[AgeOldDesire]

I'm 6'5" and, thanks to the holidays, about 230# now. However, I have a pretty big frame from which to hang the drapes so it's all good.

[LikeAWillow]

5'7 and 120. I'm kind of torn on what to do with my body at this point. 125 seems to be the weight that I float at if I don't eat well or exercise. My body naturally has an exaggeratedly small waist, but at 125, my legs aren't as toned as I would like, and my stomach not quite as flat. I can get myself down to 117 fairly easily with exercise, but I can't decide if I want to put in the effort to be noticeably that tiny, or if I want to eat whatever I want for the rest of the break and still be in good shape, though not as impressivealy so, when I get back to school. I realize this whole post probably seems ridiculous. Practical application: I can't decide if I want to go downstairs and have homemade chocolate chip cookies for breakfast. I think I do.

Edit with a question: Has anyone's base weight that they float at changed? I used to be naturally heavier than I am now, not by much, but without exercise, I would be around 135. In college, though, those ten pounds just disappeared. Is it an age thing? My lifestyle hasn't changed at all.

I'm the happiest with my body, that I've ever been in my life!
I'm 5'10". And since I was about 10, I've always been at least 15-20 lbs overweight(usually about 180-185). Well, **** rolls downhill. Cut to three years ago, and I was up to 215. Now, I don't really have a big frame, although people actually (did) think of me as a pretty big guy. Well, three years ago, at a family dinner, my big mouthed aunt(one of those, who blurts out anything that crosses her mind), said, "David, you're just getting too fat, and you need to do something about it!" Well, god bless her big mouth! So, I lost about 30-35, and got down to about 180. Much better, but still not where I wanted to be. But, I lived with that weight comfortably, until about last August. Relationship-wise, I'd been alone forever, and finally decided that I was tired of being alone. Well, that decision alone, allowed me to REALLY start calorie counting, and laying down some Nazi laws for myself. I only eat red meat about once a week now. I love salad anyway, and about 5 days a week, I only have a big salad for dinner. And I drink at least 2 liters of water, every afternoon.
I just woke up now, and got on the scales........151!!!!!!!!! I've not weighed 151 since probably 7th grade. Last weekend, I had the ultimate compliment of my life, when a friend said, "look at you....you're scrawny!" And while "wonderful humanitarian" would be a nicer compliment....for someone who's had a lifelong battle with weight, "scrawny" felt like victory!
I've become a clothes WHORE, in the past couple of months, finally able to buy clothes that show my body, not hide it! No more black shirts for me! My favorite shirts(that I've been scouring Goodwill's for,) are American Eagle Outfitter polo shirts, "vintage fit". They fit snug(without being too snug). And no more XL's for me...mediums, and some SMALLS fit! And in jeans, I'm wearing 29 and 30" waist. Again, hello 7th grade size!

I've made a new me, and I'm thrilled with this new chassis!
Btw, no drugs(I've heard several "lay off the cocaine" jokes), no diet pills, nada. Just a Nazi willpower, to reinvent myself.
