    I get anywhere from 26-19 lol. I'm 24, so not too bad =). I think it depends on what I'm wearing.

    Most people peg me around early twenties. One person said I looked twelve but that's a rarity thank goodness.

    All of that beta carotene is good for your skin!

    In my 20's people saw me in my 30's. Now that I'm in my 30's.

    I'm afraid to ask.

    I look younger than I am (51) sadly I think it's because my fat face prevents wrinkles lol. Since I have lost some weight, I am starting to notice more of them.

    Im 33 and due to my premature greying and weight gain... I usually get told that Im much older than I am.

    Ive had 36 and even 40 at my highest weight (I was 30 at the time).

    When Im thinner and color the hair I'll get 24/25

    So there's def some motivation there to get back in shape.

    I'm going to be 32 in a couple of weeks but most people think Im in my early 20's. When I was 25 acollege professor thought I was 18. LOL She had put my grade in as an F when it was an A and wanted to let my parents know it was a mistake when they got the letter in the mail. I told her that my parents probably wouldn't care especially since I didn't live with them and oh yea they weren't paying for college! HA!

    I'm 26. People constantly tell me I look 29-30. It's horrible!

    Maybe I'm just excessively mature?

    I'm 38 (39 next month) and most of the time people think I'm 32 to 34. Maybe they are just being nice. Idk but I'll take it. :tongue:

    Apparently 18... which is a little upsetting as I'm 22. However, when I get older I will be happy about this! :wink:

    I'm 24 but I've had crossing guards assume I needed help crossing the street, so they must think I'm like 12? -_-
    Other than those instances, I usually get 18-20

    I'm 23. Three years ago I was carded going into a PG-13 movie and aside from being heavier, I look the same. So I guess I still look like I'm in my early teens, especially without my glasses.

    It'll be great when I'm older, but right now it's a little insulting. lol

    I'm 28 and I keep getting carded when I buy my beer! The hell? When I was heavier I never got carded. Should I be insulted or take it as a great compliment? Should I be bothered that the picture of my driver's license was taken last year at my biggest? I had a friend say I looked 15 when I shaved my face.
