I can eat big macs, pizza, subs, swanson 'hungry man'dinners (1 pound of food) and never gain weight. The only time I gain weight is when I work out and gain muscle mass. Otherwise I have this metabolism that burns through anything. The only reason I stop eating is because I know that if I don't, I'd end up getting sick the next day.
Yes, we all have our crosses to carry... |

Well, I'm not. (6'4" and built like Aaaanold.)
Yes, I'm overweight. A lot. I don't waddle and I don't wheeze, but I'm toting a helluva lot more that I ought to be. I have at least a partial excuse - I have a genetic condition that requires that I have a high-carbohydrate diet (thus risking diabetes as I age,) but I sure as hell don't get enough exercise and that's my fault exclusively. |

5-foot-10 and about 165-167 right now but working on dropping a few more pounds since I'm a runner--albeit getting older and slower by the hour. Still, in pretty decent shape aerobically and about 6.7 percent body fat according to the last test, but definitely not strong enough to bench my own weight right now. Haven't been going to the gym lately; just logging mileage so I can start marathon training again. [:)]

You missed the category for 40+ pounds Underweight, so I just voted in the 0-30 underweight.

Happy to say that I've lost 35lbs. since September! I am 5'10". Waist went from a tight 36 to a comfortable 32!
I am also proud to say that I have lost this weight while gaining muscle too, as I started excercising again. If I can just get rid of the remnants of this belly, I'll be really happy. |

I'm 6'3" and 240 lbs. I figure 20lbs. overweight. 220 is a really good weight for me.
The chart says I'm over by 51 LBS!!! NO WAY IS THIS CHART EVEN CLOSE! i hope. |

At 603/190, I consider myself just right, but gravity has a small part of that 190 working in the grab handle area.
I know if I lost about 10 pounds, the handles will disappear (experence), but I always feel weak and tired at that weight, so I'll stick at 190, and just ride my bike harder as I get older: See my sig line. Jay [img]http://www.commspeed.net/jmurray/images/iroc-cop.gif[/img] |

Chart says I outta weigh 169... This morning I was 134, fully clothed. I have about 5-8 pounds of fat I could stand to loose too. I think I need to build some muscle? The thing is, I am not one of those little scrawny guys who wears cut off shorts exposing their horried white legs, either. I'm fairly broad in the shoulders, and would be quite well built if I worked out. |

I've always though of myslef as rather skinny. I am 6' even an 175 lbs. That would put me right on pace with that chart.
Dang, we have some skinny people on this board! Must be that I spend too much time around guys who work out more than me or something - this thread has been enlightening. |

The most important thing is your BMI (Body Mass Index). You can find it at http://www.consumerfreedom.com/game_fatchart.cfm
I think I even out some of the larger AR15.com members. I'm 5'11", 147lbs, with about 6% body fat. Oh yeah, I eat 3500 calories a day. I do a lot of mountain biking, running, and weight lifting (never going to get like Arnold though) |

The original height weight charts were made by measuring old men just before they died. Over the years the government has found that people about 20 pounds heavier than these previous measurements were healther than people that meet the measurements. So the government added about 10 pounds to their original measurements. The only way most of us could meet these weight standards is to starve ourselves nearly to death.
