    Like someone else said; I remember when I could eat an entire garbage pizza and drink a six pack of beer and not gain any weight. Now I walk by a pizza hut and gain two pounds.

    I remember when I was in my 20’s and weighed around 120 lb, I was always a size 10. Now, in my 50’s, I’m just starting to get into some size 10’s again for the 1st time in a long time, but I weigh 154!

    Remember when there were no cell phones, but we all had pagers, and a pocket full of quarters.

    I remember when people used to laugh at you if you said you had an Apple computer.

    I remember when I had a full head of fair hair.

    (it's not an issue for me though)

    I remember when OJ Simpson was fleeing from the police in the White Ford Bronco & I watched it on live TV.

    I remember when I used to resist taking naps - Now I would like to reclaim all those naps I fought against as a little kid!

    I remember when I would walk up one flight of stairs to my office and be winded and sweating for 10 minutes and have to get my officemate to take my calls because I would be too embarrassed to answer it.

    I remember when I couldn't last 20 minutes on a racquetball court or even just five minutes on an elliptical machine.

    From the distant past:

    I remember not consciously trying to decide if the chair I was about to sit in was going to hold my weight (hopefully, will be there again soon).

    I remember how good I felt when I could run three miles and not feel completely spent afterward (again, hopefully will be back there before too much longer).

    I remember when a size 10 or 12 skirt would slide past my hips without being unfastened first.

    From the recent past (nine months ago):

    I remember getting winded just walking up one flight of stairs.

    I remember having chest pain while walking at a 2.0mph pace.

    I remember not being able to sleep on my back because I felt like my boobs were choking me.

    I remember my feet hurting every morning because of all the pressure I had put on them the day before by walking around at almost 300lbs, not to mention the pressure from water retention.

    I remember wanting to burst into tears everytime I walked by a mirror.

    Hopefully, the distant memories will soon become the reality again, and the recent memories will soon be ancient history and forever remain JUST a memory.

    I remember when I used to think that 150 lbs was fat. That is now my goal.
