I am wondering how long you all have been overweight? For me, it's been about three years.

I've never been "overweight" medically, just vanity-wise. I like to be a size 6, so if I'm not a size 6, I consider myself "overweight", but of course I'm not actually clinically overweight. Right now I'm within spitting distance of my goal, and even though no one would say I need to lose weight at my current weight, I still want to lose a few more pounds.0

Since I was in the 3rd grade; then I lost A LOT of weight my Jr and Sr year of high school, but after I got healthy after that little spurt, I gained it ALL back double time! So altogether about 25 of my 36 years.0

I have been just a little bit overweight my whole life. I've almost always (ok, always) been the heaviest of my friends. After six months of dieting and 35 pounds off my weight and BMI are in the normal range and I feel good. I'm wearing some nice clothes and I look good, too! I'll try to lose a few more pounds but if I just maintain then that's fine.0

I've probably been "chunky" since about 10 or 11. In high school and early college I slimmed down, but I gained a lot more later. I would say I have been obese for about the past 4 or 5 years. Total about 15 of my 29 years.0

I never really got going again after that.. (too busy bringing up a family of 4 kids and working full time was always my excuse). Hes now 22!0
