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?

I agree! Well said, RStar.
Alex. I myself am on the heavy side (I currently weigh 260 lbs.), and I was made fun of CONSTANTLY through high school based on my looks and size. For years, I dealt with self-esteem issues because of the teasing I went through in elementary school. It wasn't until I graduated and moved on to college that I realized that all those people who chose to make fun of me instead of getting to know me...their loss.
