    Big boned = large framed, and yes it exists. I will have to look up that site for you though...

    This is the site I used.
    Just so you know, the wrist measurement is not good. The width of the elbow is much more accurate.
    Give it a try and see if you want to adjust your goal weight at all.:flowerforyou:
    Oh, and Good Luck
    Welcome to the site and all that.
