I've always been a pretty big guy. My father is a big man, so most of my heft comes from genetics.
That's not to say I can't drop a few tons. However, if I were to drop below, say, 230lbs, I'd look sick. My frame can easily carry 250-260 and look good.
I've lost 30lbs since July and I feel better than I have in years. Just watching what I eat a little closer, limiting portions, and exercising a bit more.
It's a problem that needs attention. The physical side of it is important (gotta look good to get the ladies...heh), but the important part is being healthier so you avoid things such as heart problems, hypertension, and diabetes later in life.
