> I weighed 190 lbs or less
Then get down to 190

>but that isn't physically possible for me
yes it is

> I'm only 6 feet tall but I've always been bulky and muscular.
Cool, and if you walked in there with 235lbs of muscle, they wouldn't have turned you away

Hire a lawyer, delete Facebook, and hit the gym.

>"I spoke to an Army recruiter a few months ago and they said they wouldn't even speak to me unless I weighed 190 lbs or less"

You must have found one shitty recruiter, there was this one guy who went to the office I enlisted at and they helped him drop from 250 to 205.

You sound so gay and fat. "I can't be under 190 I'm 6 foot"

thats my kind of fitness program

They just threatened to stop talking to him if he didn't go to weekly PT and didn't come in at a lighter weight every week. Guess he wanted it bad enough.

235lb of muscle on a 6 foot tall guy is either top 0.01% of male genetic capability or juicy/roiding

Regardless of the following post, losing 65 pounds is commendable. You did it bro! Keep going cause you can't stop now!
I get you got big joints, but 190 is achievable unless you started weight-lifting in your pre-teens (or as said above, roiding). I think you're severely underestimating your bodyfat, but I'll give you the benefit of the doubt. Get as close as you can to 190 and if possible see another recruiter.
If you're truly 23% bf, you can do 215lb pounds easily after losing 65. 15% body fat is good enough for the Army and easily achievable, though it gets much harder once you get into single digits bf.
And if you're juicing, stop; it's not worth it, unless you're a (or aspiring) top athlete in a sport there is absolutely no reason to juice.

Reminds me of a joke, there are three ways to do something:
The Stupid Way
The Smart Way
And...
The Military Way

Any loss greater than 2 pounds per week burns more muscle than fat unless extremely obese. He must have gone through hell if "lighter weight every week" is taken at face value, given that through the week, we variate ~4 pounds in weight through water retention, (lack of/just recent) bowel movements, and what-not.

Why delete facebook and hire a lawyer? I'm sure it has something to do the special forces nature of this yeah?

I didn't believe it at first either, but I've done the electrical testing and used calipers and I always get low 20s%. I'm going to try and get my weight as low as possible though. Should I contact a recruiter as soon as I can or should I hold off until I'm in better shape? I suppose it is his job to sort this shit out for me

>>32027218
Get your disgusting fat-body to the gym and live there for the next two years. Then when you are reasonable fit join the regular army infantry. Their IF (big if) you make it through basic and still think you can hang with the PJs sign up for it. After you wash out you can go back to picking grass out of the sidewalks but at least you'll be somewhat fit.

/K/ has military, but your best bet is to find an actual army forum or the army plebbit sub-reddit. Otherwise here are two good reads:

https://www.army.mil/article/84224
http://www.slate.com/articles/news_and_politics/explainer/2008/04/fat_soldiers.html

I would personally wait until I have at least 18% bf, but I don't know your finances or goals. Ask on the army plebbit or even talk to one of their recruiters about it, I'm sure they will be more than happy to help.

>What goals should I be aiming for?

Drink only water
Watch your sugar and carb intake
Run about 1.5-2 miles a day
Consider getting your EMT-B, so your recruiter knows you have a medical background and are serious about a career field with an 85% attrition rate.

Good Luck OP
