[ QUOTE ] Why would your ideal weight be dictated by others? I personally like being "big". I'm 6'4", 235 and can guarantee I am healthier than 95%+ of the population. This is b/c body weight is different considering muscle/fat ratio. Jay Cutler has a body mass index of a morbidly obese person, with less than 8% body fat. [/ QUOTE ] No one is dictating anything, and how does it help to cite extreme examples that don't apply to >99% of the population? All I am saying is that... [/ QUOTE ] This is really too stupid to respond to, but I'll just say that I wasn't talking to/about you and please don't respond to any of my posts in the future. |

I was under the impression that it was better to aim for a healthy BF % than to worry about how much you actually weigh. For example I am only 5' 7" and very much overweight at 300 lbs and 39% BF. However, unless my math is wrong even if I get down to 10% BF I will still end up weighing right around 200 lbs, and that's assuming I don't put on any more lean mass in the meantime. So maybe Dids is in a similar situation, I don't really know.

Mitternacht,
Your thoughts are fine and dandy but that would require lots of weightlifting. It's definitely possible but I think it would be challenging to lose 100 lbs and maintain the same lean mass. Hell, if you could get to 200lbs @ 20% you'd be doing great. |

Skunkworks,
Yeah, I figure I'll lose some lean mass, but I'm pretty sure any way you slice it I'm going to be way over the recommended weight. To get to my ideal BMI I would have to get down to around 150 lbs and I just don't feel that's a realistic goal for me. So I'm going to be happy getting my BF% down to something I can live with and be happy with whatever my actual weight ends up being. Well, I don't want to hijack this thread, I'm just saying that for Dids maybe 200 lbs is a good goal. |

Tried to go to the gym today. Closed because of a gas leak. Lame. |
