My weight is my biggest concern because I'm 5'8" and 200 pounds
but I'm not "obese" (according to the BMI) I'm just a really heave person.
I was 10 lbs at birth and I was very skinny growing up but still heavier that my classmates.
Anyhow, I hope I get an offer. I wish everyone lots of luck and success.Show Less
