Right now I'm 5' 9". 220 lbs. I'm estimating that I'm currently at 30% bodyfat. as my fat hasn't changed since last year when it was measured.

I don't think there is one healthy bf percentage for everyone. I'd say anywhere between 10-15 is generally healthy.

u should not be more than 20-25 % for moderation but if u want an athletec body any thing under 15 is perfect

Yea I know I'm a fat ass man, thats why I'm here. LOL. I think I'll set my goal to get down to 15% so I'll have to drop 33 lbs. I don't know why I didn't do this sooner, I guess I just needed to get as low as I could go. Hopefully now I'll be able to go my highest. I know people that are about the same height as me give or take an inch and approximately the same amount of muscle mass. I will be really happy with myself when I get down to 187. 187 lbs here I come!.
