I was a skinny little kid (sometimes I was a bit chubby but most of the time I was a stringbean) till I started eating too much and gaining weight when I was 9... I've been overweight since I was 9. Sometimes a tiny bit, sometimes a lot!


I am SO glad the antidepressant I'm taking is making me not so hungry! I'm totally contented to eat nothing some days, and just drink a lot of water! Now all I have to do is wait till my mother goes up north (very very soon, in about a month) and then I won't have her insisting on buying me food! :D

Yes, yo-yoying has always been a big problem for me. When I was little I was enormously overweight. When I hit puberty I was slim, almost skinny. And when I went to college I was way too heavy again. Right now I'm trying to slim down. I already lost 35 pounds in a few months. I exercise a lot and eat next-to-nothing. I'm also on Ritalin, which kicks in as well.

I was always EXTREMELY picky and I hate eating. I am very slim but also tall (I'm 173 cm tall and my weight is 51 kg). I very like my body, I don't like looking at fat people :x I was always very slim because I eat so little and in spite of having really good imagination I am completely unable to imagine myself as a plump person.

It doesn't yo-yo that much for me. I lift weights a lot and I weigh a lot, so it naturally fluctuates between 185 and 195.

That's slightly predudiced. Liking chubby chicks myself, I love looking at them.

I've always been slightly overweight, but right now I'm trying to build up my strength and endurance.

I know everyone's weight fluctuates, but I'm curious if people's weight yo-yos... because I wish mine would! If I wanted to punch someone out I could just gain tons of weight by eating and enjoying it, then if I wanted to look good I could lose it all painlessly. :D

Well I was anorexic for 10 years on and off, so I have had huge fluctuations.
I have ranged from 70Ibs (I am 5'10, 175cm) to 150Ibs.
Currently probably about 142ibs and wanting to get down to 132 if possible by xmas.

I cant gain weight even if I want to, and Ive always been that way. Im 5'11" and last I checked I was 125-130 lbs. There is muscle, so its not like I have a "skin and bones" unhealthy look.

I've taught my weight how to walk the dog. Does that count?

My weight will be a life long yoyo, I was a skinny kid, then a fat teenager, now I'm healthy, then when I head toward middle age I will grow obese again, as I get old my body will degrade and my health will deteriorate I won't be able to eat as much my fat will lessen and my skin will be loose.
