The North Face Goliath Bx Sleeping Bag: 0 Degree Climashield HL
Nice Bag for the Horizontally Challenged

For the money this is a excellent bag. Climashield is basically a coated polyester fiber lining and the way to go if you don't/can't get down. The batting is also shingled which adds to the insulation and helps keep it from migrating. I bought this bag when I "out grew" my old Sierra Design bag. This costs less and I feel it is better. There are at least 2 other bags on the market for plus size models such as us. Both are 2 1/2 times as much. One has insulation that is the same so the cost is debatable. The other is Western Mountaineering's Kodiak and is down insulated.
