Default How much do you weigh?

Title.

I weigh 221lbs to 223lbs depending on the time of day. I was quite surprised to learn that people who indulge in sessions are as heavy, or even heavier than I am. I'm going up to 230-235ish.

An extension question, I suppose:

Do you consider dropping a few lbs before your session, in an endeavour to make it easier on the woman in question?

Dropping weight is definitely something I consider but for some reason I never take it seriously. My current weight is 247 thought I bounce around a lot from 240-260. Depends on year as I?m heavier in winter and lighter in summer.

Out of curiosity, how many women have lifted u at your weight? Were they session women? If so who

I haven't been my current weight for very long. I've never had a session.
When I was 196lbs, two women were able to hold me in a piggyback position, although they could not move.
When I was 213lbs, another woman held me in a piggyback position, and could not move.

My weight is muscle weight, so I'm not sure if that plays a role, in terms of how the weight feels when carrying it.

At the same time, I live in the UK, where the general athleticism of women is pretty subpar, so it makes sense that they'd have a hard time. I'm sure there are plenty of women in Scandinavian countries/US/Canada that would have zero problem holding me, even when I reach 230-235.

I'm 6'3 195lbs (very fit) and I've only had 2 girls (out of about 100) who were unable to lift me. Ha, maybe you guys are just hanging around weak women *or maybe Im just around stronger women--probably not by coincidence). I'm always amazed by the ease at which many women can lift me.

I do find it's easier to lift taller people, to be fair - the distribution of weight is more widespread and depending on the lift, the amount of torque needed to perform it.

I would also add that the weight will feel less if the person that is being lifted is more compact. You can make yourself easier to lift if you tense your body a bit.

6ft2 and about 220 lbs, though it's been over 3 years since I last checked it (I don't own a scale).

6'3 and 190. Seems like our thread beats the world average height. Shame it doesn't benefit our fetish though.
