I'm 6'1" 190 lbs...33-34" waist.

I play soccer or basketball 3-4 times a week and am in decent cardiovascular shape.

I have not lifted weights regularly in the past couple years so my muscle mass isn't what I would like or where it used to be but it is decent.

Overall, I'm pretty happy.

5'6", ~165 lbs. when I'm fat, ~175 lbs. when I've been working out.

Really, weight isn't usually the right metric to use.

I feel fine about my weight.

Dude, thats way worse than me even! If I am a stick, you must be composed partly of anti-matter! :D

If it weren't for all the cycling, I'd probably be fine with my current weight (not fat, not skinny). However, knowing that 20-30lbs less would make me a much faster climber... well, that's motivation, I suppose, to lose some fat pounds.

He's kidding. That's not possible.

Same here. I'm the same height and weight and trying to gain lean mass.

I'm working towards losing 3 more pounds and then we'll see how I look...more than likely, I'll continue adding some weight, probably ~5lb.

But at 154lb, I'm quite happy where I am...there's just always room for improvement.

I'm stuck at 140, despite lifting every other day. I do believe that I started the school year at 155 lbs, with no muscle, all fat.

Now I rock on. I'd like to put on a few pounds of muscle, though.

I got a gut, but I'm working on it. Should probably lose 15-20 lbs. Or I'd be happy to change it for muscle.
