I'm 5'9", but when I was 24 I weighed around that and didn't have much fat on my body. I suppose it's possible that I've lost some of the muscle mass that I once had. I have just started walking, and intend to start some resistance training again.

175-180 is pretty damn big for 5'9" unless you're an athlete or have a very large frame. You must have been jacked!

Nice job on the loss though. I've had several friends who have lost a ton just by cutting out one thing (be it grains, sodas, desserts, whatever).
