    6'4" and 306 lbs. at my heaviest. 279 is my current weight. Goal is 222 eventually, hope to be there by next summer!

    I too want to lose as much as possible before Christmas, as I leave Christmas day on my vacation to U.P., Michigan snowmobiling.

    I have a feeling my weight will be somewhere in the 265 area, with 260 as a goal.

    I have had the most luck with the ladies between the weights of 190 and 240. Anything below 190 I look very lanky and spaghetti-like. Much more than 240 and I look like a lumbering lard-*kitten*.

    I started back on a health regimen 3 weeks ago today. New Year's Day is when I usually start and that NEVER works, I ALWAYS quit so I started early this year. I have lost 10 lbs. so far eating 10x my bodyweight GOAL in calories per day, (222 lb goal=2220 calories/day) and only in an 8 hour window. I make sure to get a 16-hour zero-calorie intake "fasting" window every day.

    I also take a cheat day each week (which happens to be today!) to rev-up my metabolism. I follow the cheat day with a 24 hour fasting day. No calories for me on Sundays.

    For exercise I do Tabata upon waking 3x a week. Monday lower body/core, Wednesday Upper body, and Friday (or Saturday) I do sprint tabata.

    This is a very easy, uncomplicated routine for me, and I easily see myself sticking with it until I reach my goal.

    I'm 6-0 in height. I was at 405 pounds in Feb. 2012. I lost 100 pounds in my first 7 months so it's definitely possible to lose 100 pounds in 7 months but it takes some serious dedication and control. I was eating right and exercising 2-3 hours a day. I now hit my target weight of 190 pounds and now I'm working on building more lean muscle and toning up while decreasing my body fat percentage.

    Hey guys and gals! I'm Chris. I just found this place and signed up! I'm 6'4 275 and about 26 % BF. I'm hoping to get down to 230. It's great to see all the other big guys and all the good work you've been doing.

    My name is Nathan and I am 6'3 and 28yrs old. I was at 286 and am now at 274. I am looking to get down all the way 195-210 range. I used to play DII basketball and was in unreal shape, but I have let myself go severely and I want to get back on track. I have no one to blame but myself, and I'm really hoping to meet some great people on here who know what it is like to be tall and overweight.
