i know i am carrying too much timber but apart from using bmi as a guide is there a calculator for working out my ideal weight? currently 6'3" and 16 stone(224lbs) getting to 200lbs seems a good target first and actually i suspect i will be more than happy with that weight when i get there. think the last time i got that low was the first time i did great north run so going back 7 yearsish i think.

    Depends on your muscularity I suppose, I'd go with how I feel when I look in the mirror. I'm 6 foot 3 and weigh 13.5 stone down from 16.5 stone 2 years ago.
    It's never too late to become what you might have been...........

    not really a calculator, more of a graph but even after dropping 12kg im still in the overweight category ( 5ft11 and down from about 16.5st to 14.5 and still going)
