I am not as large as my weight would suggest - when you met me, I was a size
54, and weighed about 360 lbs. I'm fairly well-muscled under the fat - my
lean body mass (my weight if my body fat were zero) is about 215 lbs. I'll
NEVER be skinny - but I could be a musclegod if I spent the time in the gym
and watched my diet better. Of course, I have much better things to do than
pump iron. Not that there's anything wrong with pumping iron - but the vast
majority of ironpumpers I've met, especially the gay ones, have little
between their ears besides vacuum... which is why they can spend hours a day
in the gym.

Bitter? Me? Naaaah.....
