232 lbs, 6'2"....gotten fat from lack of exercise and desk job, but I can still pass my employer's physical fitness test!!! (which isn't saying much, trust me, I"m in sad shape right now)
Bloodpressure 118/58 last week when I donated blood and my last cholesterol reading was 131, so I guess I'm not quite dead yet.

That's with my brain still in my head and where I like it, no thanks to certain illithid in the room.
That's my stats straight out of Army Basic Training.

5'8 and one half inches! 196 lbs. mostly muscle. 10years of martial arts left me with tree-trunk legs. I used to leg press over 900 lbs. Construction made the upper body strong too. I have gotten a bit big in the middle since becoming a Stay-at-home dad but I can still crush the little girlie-men.

5'10", 230lbs. with a +/- of 15lbs. depending on time of year and how much I am out in the field or how much I'm behind the desk (you can sweat a lot of weight off carrying a pack and digging shovel tests in Texas in the summer...). Hope to loose some more, I've been to desk bound recently and that hasn't helped.
...oh, and Ben & Jerry's Chubby Hubby Ice Cream is aptly named. Damn Vermonters and their Hippy Ice Creameries!

Down from 257 in April. My goal is to lose at least 50 (would put me at 207), and then we'll see from there. Even at 257, I was fairly athletic (play softball and volleyball), but it's much easier after losing the weight. No screwy weight loss plans either, just cut down portion size, cut out soda and fast food entirely, and added exercise.

Male, 5'6", 145 lbs. Was up to 165 lbs 7 years ago in college when I rowed on the crew team, but have lost some muscle since then. Now I just float around 145 thanks to having my father's "hummingbird metabolism." Eat anything; not gain a pound. (Infuriates my younger sister...)
**infuriates me - though I'm not your younger sister**
I have the "backwoods survival" metabolism. Put us in a post-apocolyptic world and I can live off of one-half rat and a handful of crackers a day.

Heh. Sorry about that, Carnivore.
If it's any consolation, it irritates my wife too. She's a very muscular 5'3" (she's a bodybuilder in her free time) but she keeps saying it's embarrassing at her family get-togethers. Having a husband so wiry insinuates something bad about her cooking in the eyes of her mother and grandmothers (She's Irish. Is that an Irish thing?)Ironic thing is, her cooking is FANTASTIC. I just don't gain weight unless I start lifting like crazy... Go figure...

It's not an Irish-only club. My other half is Italian-Portuguese and has the metabolism of aforementioned hummingbird. But, I'm a good cook! Really! He just doesn't gain any weight (unlike me).

Hrmph to your modern metabolism!
Someday, when the level 4 zombie infestation happens, my slow and very efficient metabolism will become pertinent again! IT WILL! I swear.
That's my solace too! Gawds - I gained weight during Army survival training on a diet of grubs, ant eggs (delicious!) and pine needle soup...

In january still 215 Lbs.. and a pudgy waist. Then i got this gymcard for christmas... and now about 187 Lbs, leaner and a damn lot stronger.
Went as low as 177 Lbs before laying on mnore weight, arms getting thicker and such nice details. Oh and body does some funny teen-things. As if 15 yo again.. 28 now, meaning beyond that 24-25 when the body goes downhills hard.
Feels great!
Could at best, when younger as a conscript, do 12 pullups.. 3 in january.. 24 are standard today :D
And every intention of going for 50, one day.. ;)

since giving up drinking actually starting to exercise a year ago :D
I've started exercising again too, since I might actually have to go do some real work (like non-office work) if I manage to get promoted in December, but that stopping drinking thing is just crazy talk.....
(Just kidding, congrats!)

That's down from over 400 two years ago.
I had gotten myself down to 280 lbs, but it's been creeping back up over the past year.
sigh.

To be truely accurate shouldn't you be averaging the BMI rather than the weight?
I am 6' 0" 203lbs, about 22lbs overweight, down from 215lbs. I think that puts me at 27.5 for BMI. You really want to aim for a BMI between 18.5 and 24.9, so I am close! My target weight is 180lbs.
