GG, at 190, I still have much that can go. The "guide" says I am suppose to be 165 (not a chance, I would have to give up eating completely for months at a time), but 170-175 is realistic.
Muscle is heavier than fat, and if you are doing muscle building exercises at the same time as trying to lose weight, you might find yourself at a plateau long before you reach ideal weight. You are better doing aerobic stuff rather than anything that actually builds muscle. You can use up hundreds of extra calories per day and really balance it out.

Q. How many calories make 1 pound of weight?
About 3,500 calories adds up to about 1 pound. This applies whether they are food calories coming in, or calories (burned by exercise) going out.
If you eat 3,500 calories more than your body needs, you will put on about 1 pound. If you use up 3,500 calories more than you eat, you will lose about 1 pound in weight.

So you can make it up any way you like it... hard work or shorter meals... I am on the shorter meals thing right now... I might actually have to do some exercise in the end ;-)
