I think you should reduce your mass to only 100 kg, and work to convert that
100 kg to muscle. Then when people ask you how much you "weigh", you can
tell them you are the 100 kg man. And that is 100 kg of pure, mean muscle.
go for it big boy!

Well, that's what the doctor told me ... I think what he said was:
"You need
to lose weight, because your mass is too big."
