    Build up to doing triathlons more slowly! You'll wreck your knee, feet and hip and turn into a big, squishy mess!

    I'm 45. To be honest, by 35, most of my major life decisions were done. Job, wife, kids, done. I'd probably give myself stock tips, and tell myself what kind of car to buy that would last ten years. LOL

    Get your @ss back on the treadmill so you don't gain 105 pounds.

    Don't fritter away the inheritance. That's a deposit for a house.
    Be single for a while. Don't measure yourself on whether you are in a relationship or not.

    Don't worry little one. Yes, your best friend is moving. Your other friends are all going up to "big school". Yes, the other kids think you're weird, and a teachers pet. But don't worry about other people think of you. Yes, they call you "ginger". In 5 years, you'll sing those "ginger" songs right back at them. In 10 years, you'll be proudly signing yearbooks "love from Ginge." You'll graduate high school with a boyfriend, awesome grades, loads of friends, and as one of the "pretty" ones. Ugly ducklings turn into swans. :)

    And you'll still be a teachers pet. But that isn't really such a bad thing.

    In a few years, you'll go through a lot with a certain guy. Hang on to him. You need each other more than you know.

    Be selfish, and go out in the world to get what you want. You deserve more than to let others tell you what they expect of you!

    Do not gain all that weight after having your kids, you have to keep up with them!!!
    Everything else that you will do is going to be lesson learned and those mistakes are the things that make you a little wiser in the end.

    I would need to go back a little bit more than 10 years.
    I would want to go back 20 years, tell myself to dump the guy I was dating who then came my husband then ex husband
    Going 10 years back I would tell myself to do something about my weight problem. Then again my problem with weight started when I started dating him. Before that I was always slim and active.
