that's what i should weigh haha. how tall are you?

5'6

-SpaceCase

I weigh 110. I am 5' 11"

I have a good appetite, I just seem to burn it off as it's coming in!

I'm on Zyprexa. About 3/4 of the people who go on it go off it within 18 months because of weight gain. I'm not one of the "lucky ones." I wnet on it at 13 and ballooned up, reached an obese weight. At 15 I decdied I had to stop, and went on wieght watchers. I haven't been obese since, but whenever I go off the diet, I gain like crazy, so I'm on this for life. I am currently under 120 lbsa dn am 5'2". When I was about 14 I was an inch shorter and nearly 180. Weight Watchers are great; they are behavior modification.

I used to be really skinny, buy my bmi has always been normal because I'm short. I remember at age 10, I weighed 40 lbs (18 kg) and I was 3'8" tall. At age 12 years 10 months, there was not much difference (4'4" and 55 lbs.) But at that time my parents put me on risperdal, and I weighed 100 lbs by December and was 4'7". I have lost weight since then, and know I am happily 83 lbs (37 kg) and 4' 11" 3/4. My BMI is about 16, which is not underweight, because I am 14 years and 6 months old.

Same height, but weigh twice as much...looking at me, you can't tell where all that weight is. I have fat covering all my muscles I guess. My job has given me lots of strength over time, so I've gotten failry muscular. But my fat still hasn't gone away.

Same height but currently between 260-265... I looked pretty good at 220 as well as I'm heavy built - I wish I was still that weight. I really do need to get rid of some but exercise sucks, and I don't have time to go running or money to lift weights in a gym... and I like my food too much. Anyone got any spare motivation they aren't using?

I weight 175lb and 5'11.

I really exercise alot to relieve stress.

I have fought the Battle of the Bulge my whole life, and right now, I am losing. I have tried a lot of different diets--most recently Atkins, and they have not worked. Right now, I don't have time to exercise. One question I have--has the gluten-free/casein-free diet helped anybody in keeping weight down?

crap you're tall... i'm like 3 inches shorter and 20 lbs heavier! at work people still tell me i'm skinny though, which i find sort of odd... maybe it's the distracting outfits? haha

i also checked my body fat percent which is like 32% (women apparently should be 18-25%) and im worried im too much as it is (add the freshman 15 in 2 years and it'll be a problem) so my mom is concerned that i'm concerned and wants to take me to weight watchers to work on portion control so i'll be set for life and not have to worry much longer. good idea?

I used to weigh about 80 kgs (177 lbs) and I am 5'8 (173cm) tall. But in recent years I have lost about 17 lbs (8 kgs), plus I have been starting to workout at the gym. I'm gradually getting myself fit and into shape.

Plus 2 months ago I had 18% bodyfat, means now It could be done to 16%.
