I was 6' tall and weighed 200 lbs as a freshman in high school. I weighed 250 lbs my senior year when I played multiple sports and was in very good shape. I've been hovering around 230 ever since I stopped being regularly active, and I've always been able to lose 5-10 lbs in a few days by just cutting back on my food intake (i.e. skipping a meal or two). Being overweight makes it a little easier to lose. I'm just happy that at age 32 I was able to lose 10 lbs in a week without having to worry about my eating habits. My end goal is somewhere between 200-210 as long as I still feel good.
