    this is a fun one for me. Graduated in 1991 at 18yrs old and 213 lbs (played 3 sports, captain of two - I was in phenominal shape) great big 20 year mess I made of myself after that - but today, I'm nearly 40yrs old (3 months left), weigh 208.4, and...I'm in PHENOMINAL shape!!

    thanks for the topic - this is an NSV for me!! wooohooooo!

    and how does that compare with your goal weight?

    I was about 108 (too skinny). My goal is 120.

    About 90. In college, I went down to 88. No, I was not anorexic. I couldn't stand the dorm food.

    I'm 5' 2".

    I think I was about 115lbs, maybe just a little more. I know I was 115 when I was 16 because that's what was on my license up until last week, lol.

    I was about 120, and very fit...even had a visible 4-pack. Now my goal is 140, which is the upper end of healthy weight for me. I got down to about 115 right after high school, and I was too skinny then and I don't want to reach a point of too skinny.

    I was around 140, which was perfect. But I had just recovered from a bad case of mono and strep so I had lost the weight because I couldn't eat. Once I was better and started eating non-liquid food again, I gained it all back :-(

    115 or thereabouts. On a 5'7" frame, that's too skinny. I've added a lot of muscle, and at I'm 168 now, and between a 6 and 8, depending on brand. I think I'd like to get to about 140-145.

    I was about 108-110 lbs. That is my goal now. :)
  • I was 149 when I graduated, but had just put on a few pounds and was feeling uncomfortable. I'm shooting for 145.

    130. I played soccer for 15 years and was EXTREMELY lean. Man, I want that body back. Unfortunately, after a year of sitting on my couch my freshman year all of my muscle turned to fat and now I'm trying to get to 135!

    Honestly, I have no idea. I had a scale that only went to 333 and I was always that weight when I stepped on it. So, I don't think it was accurate. lol I do know that I weigh less now than I did back then because I wear smaller pants now (jeans) whereas I couldn't fit in jeans back then.
    I was a super overweight child so I didn't get fat when I left highschool, I got smaller because I wasn't in the same environment

    I probably graduated before most here were born! LMAO

    168 / 6' into the Air Force. Had been working construction for the two years preceeding and had lost 40 from Jr. High.
    Retired 21 years later - 195.. (Damned Desk Jobs.)
    Slowly climbed from there to max of 316. And now on the way back to 195.

    About 99 pounds (I'm 5'1"). I don't think I cracked 100 until I went to college - freshman 15 and all of that. I remember not being able to give blood because I didn't weigh enough!

    My goal weight now is about 118. I'd prefer 115, but would be satisfied with 120, so I picked something in between.

    Weighed less then, but I'll bet I'm healthier now. I eat better and exercise more.

    I weighed 125, which, at 5'0" was too much (for me). It's 15 pounds over my goal weight, which is 110.
