 I would have never guessed. In part because frankly I don't look at people quite that way. I take in personality, manerisims, language and intelect; the whole person. Looks are only a small part of the picture, and I can only retain so much information. 
At least you are honest about yourself, and in a healthy way. Good for you, Alex. I know too many overwieght people who are messed up because the have an unhealthy view of themselves.
Oh, and I was going to guess 235 lbs. How does that compare to what the others said?
