What's the most accurate way to calculate a healthy weight for me? (please help) Hi everyone,   I'm lurking here almost everyday for years but don't post often. You all seem to be super buff and in shape while I am just you're average not fat guy - which makes me feel like I don't belong.  Im 179cm tall and 150 pounds male. I don't go to the gym (considering changing this), I just don't stuff my fucking face like a hippo in a mayo pond.   I have a large chest and wide shoulders. I've been thinking about losing some weight as there are some places that I'm not in love with. I think it might look weird if I lose weight because of the difference between my small stomach and big upper body (or is this just my internalized fatlogic?).   So I'm just wondering how can I calculate how much weight I could lose while still being healthy. Or should I go to the gym and attempt to tone the specific areas which bother me? Note: losing more weight is a lot easier for me than going to the gym. Any recommendations would be super helpful, as you can't trust anything you read about weight loss on the internet.   Thanks!
