    I was somewhere around 150 when I graduated. I have always been a heavier girl, and yo-yo'd between 140 and 165 for all of my college years and then into my 20's. My goal was to be 126 for my 10 year high school reunion which is 3 weeks away. I don't think I'll get there, since I'm currently 133 and it would be unhealthy for me to lose 7 pounds in that amount of time. But I'll keep working and take what I can get. Either way, I'll look better than I did when I graduated!

    Not really sure. I wasn't really concerned with my weight at that point in my life. I would say 120ish maybe less? My goal now is to be somewhere between 110-115.
  • I'm 5'8" and I was around 127 with lots of muscles so looked thinner than a 127. Now I'm 145 and although I hated my skeleton looking face back in those days, I'm trying to be around 132.

    I've been 5'3" since middle school, and I was about 120 lbs when I graduated high school. I was on the swim team so I was trim and muscley. Over college and my first year of working in the "real world," I got up to 161 lbs, and I'd like to get back down to that trim and muscley me. But I doubt that I'd be able to reach the 17 year-old-me body again. I mean if I can... wow, awesome, but I'll be happy when I reach 130 lbs. :)

    I was 132 until I was 18 then had 3 children I'm not 23 and I'm currently 144 so not too bad right? Nah hoping to lose 15lbs I remember being happy with my weight then. I'm also only 5ft 3.

    Weighed about 128 when I graduated. Maxed at 223 ... goal is 160.
  • I was 188lbs when I graduated in 1986. Joined the military and got up to 210 with 8% body fat. (I was a monster.) Got out of the military and it started to go to fat. Got up to 235lbs.

    I am now down to 192. MFP is AWESOME!

    lol I was never a monster but I know what you mean about getting out and getting fat. I weighed 235ish in the Army and 3 years later I weigh 336.

    About 110-115 was my weight at high school graduation. My goal eventually would be 130-135, but I'm trying to get healthy to eventually get pregnant again, so I will like to get to 145-155 before my husband and I try again.

    I was like 119. And I thought I was fat then. <sigh>
    My goal now (15 years, 2 marriages and three pregnancies later) is 132.

    I was around 130. My goal weight now is between 135-140. I can remember thinking how fat I was! Pathetic and sad! :/

    Wow, that's like 12 years ago!!

    I was exactly the same weight, more or less 2-3 pounds. Except when I was 20-22 (I was 130 pounds at that time) I feel like I've always been 110-115 pounds. My figure is different though. I was skinnier at that time, not I'm more muscular and have less body fat.

    182 pounds which is depressing. I have always been chunky so I am fighting a lifetime battle of the bulge!
