I've struggled with weight for my entire life.  Back in high school, I got up to 265, lost a little in college down to 240. 

I did real well for a long time (15 years), fluctuating between 205 and 220, with lots of muscle mass. 

The past couple years, I've been more busy with the kids, more focused on a woodworking business, and less focused on diet and health.  I got back up to 244, and decided that enough was enough.  My goal is 205, which would be lean.  I'd be ripped at 195, but that would be too stressful to maintain.
