    Not to be a smartass or anything, but before I looked at who the poster was and just read the post, I thought you were the one who had actually been pregnant. :D

    Lets just say after a mother (representing HS), multiple wives, a stint in the Army, and a couple of seasons as a triathlete I STILL wear a size 31 waist. I will forever be thin...sigh.

    It's been six years since I graduated from high school and I'm still the same weight.

    Yeah. It was a joke that fell on deaf ears. Oh well.

    I actually weigh around 205 right now.

    9 years, i've always been +/- 3 lbs from the same HS weight..

    of course, the waist has grown slightly, and i'm guessing in another 10 years i'll end up really seeing the difference for all the junkfood i eat..

    I wonder if "REUNION.COM" or "CLASSMATES.COM" would be sued if they asked this same question of their members... :D ROTFLMAO!

    129 then, 160 now. I grew a few inches up, a few more inches horizontally. :D I remember I was a 28-waist then, but now a 34.

    from my high school reunion, this seems like a lot more common result than "I stayed the same weight" would be. Some people stay the same but most don't stay anywhere near it. The guys gained more weight - less social pressure to stay thin perhaps.

    Been out of high school for 15 years...

    Then - 165

    Now - 225

    It's sucks because I'm very active. I play soccer 3-4 times per week plus a softball game on Sunday nights. It's just my eating habits and genetics that are against me. I have a large family.

    It is the opposite for my reunion. It's been 15 years and the females seem to have the most weight tacked on. :eek: Most of my good girl friends have gained, and while I haven't seen my "ex", I can say that she's probably more on the PLUS side.

    5'11 - HS - 185-190lbs I think. I know I was 185lbs my junior year but then I got a job at Sonic. :eek:

    Just rolled over on 29yrs and I am at 220lbs now. I was down to 200lbs around May of this year. So far this year I have went through a divorce (helped the weight loss) and a pretty nasty break up with my GF (hurt the weight loss b/c of drinking way too much and eating).

    For me it is easy to lose weight, just eat less. I'm at a point now where I've got a handle on eating and my gut is getting ready to shrink again. :D

    So has anyone ever tried a beer diet? I'm serious. I did it for about two months this year and lost about 25lbs. You basically eat a small breakfast (200 cals) and a medium lunch (500cals) and a tiny dinner (300 or less) and then you drink a few beers the rest of the night. My beer was Shiner and I drank probably 3 a night. I exercised little to none besides in the bedroom and the 25lbs just fell off.

    I'm 6'2.5".

    1986, age 18: 175-ish.
    2008, almost 40: 190-ish (depends on whether I weigh myself pre- or post-crap, I guess)

    So that's 15 extra pounds but some of that is muscle because I work out now. If I weighed 182 that'd be sweeeet. My main weakness is sugar and just avoiding it in this past week I've lost some "blub".

    I've gained ~15-20, from 175 at 6 feet to 190-195 at 6 feet.

    I've simply filled out muscle-wise more than anything, but I'm trying to trim down to about 175-180.
