How much do you weigh? I’ll Paypal ten bucks to the winner (heaviest poster), if we can find them. I have a feeling I’ll be in the running for possibly winning this (in which case I’ll just keep my money), so I’ll state mine after a few posts (if a few posts come, that is), rather than make the weight a really high, hard one to beat from the start. : p Here’s a [kilogram/pound converter](https://www.google.com/search?q=pounds+to+kilograms&rlz=2C1CHFX_enUS0537US0537&oq=pounds+to+k&aqs=chrome.1.69i57j0l5.4211j0j7&sourceid=chrome&es_sm=122&ie=UTF-8), [a kilogram/stone converter](https://www.google.com/search?q=pounds+to+kilograms&rlz=2C1CHFX_enUS0537US0537&oq=pounds+to+k&aqs=chrome.1.69i57j0l5.4211j0j7&sourceid=chrome&es_sm=122&ie=UTF-8#q=stones+to+kilograms), and a [pound/stone converter](https://www.google.com/search?q=pounds+to+kilograms&rlz=2C1CHFX_enUS0537US0537&oq=pounds+to+k&aqs=chrome.1.69i57j0l5.4211j0j7&sourceid=chrome&es_sm=122&ie=UTF-8#q=pounds+to+stones) those who use either system and wonder what the equivalent is. ---

I regret this already: 6’ 0", 352 lbs. I’ve always been a heavy guy with a big frame, but the new blood pressure medicine not only made my depression worse but it gave me 60 lbs of extra weight without the food intake–AIN’T LIFE GRAND? ---

This probably discriminates against short people. BMI would be a better measure. ---

Well, since you bumped it up that high already, I guess I’ll go next: I’m 6’4 and 360 pounds. Let’s see if there’s anyone on here who can beat that. ---
