    When I was aged 21-25 I was 220lbs (15st 10lbs). I had a really bad relationship with food and would comfort eat all the time. I still do have that bad relationship to some extent, but nowhere near as bad as I was.

    I am now 28 and weigh 184lbs (13st 2lb). I want to get down to 168lb (12st). I am 5'10".

    125 about 10 years ago (I was 44-45) and one inch shorter that I am now, which means I was 5 ft. tall....(I grew an inch taller at 52 yrs. old - which proves that miracles DO happen). I was in an abusive loveless marriage and being dumpy was like body armor. I took it off with WW online only, but that was under the original "points" plan, which actually WORKED! I started gaining some of the weight back when WW chose to modify their program - UGH! And besides - the people there were really MEAN! I am so thrilled to have MFP in my life & have met so many lovely supportive people here! :heart:

    The highest weight I have been was just before I started MFP. I'm 22 and I wieghed 299lbs. I could have been heavier, I just never used to go on the scales. I have always been a fat kid at school and then all through University.
    Just done my wiegh in for the week and I now weigh 285lbs after two months of being on MFP! I am trying to get to my goal weight of 180lbs.

    156. I was 30. It had been creeping up.
    I got it to 130 and held it there for about 10 years, then it started creeping up again (to 140).
    At 136 now.

    The highest weight I've ever been was at 19 years old. I was about 585 lbs.

    But then again, I was ATG squatting 405 at the time. It's less now.
