I'd say I'm 15 lbs lighter. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-weight-have-gainedlost-since-high-school/page/2#post-2732769 Fri, 05 May 2017 14:55:44 +0000 Alba4 2732769@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm pretty sure I weigh less. I ate a lot of processed/junk food and I eat a lot healthier now. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-weight-have-gainedlost-since-high-school/page/2#post-2732754 Fri, 05 May 2017 14:19:36 +0000 MrsLonghorn 2732754@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm currently heavy (for me) due to stress and laziness. I graduated 16 years ago, and am up 20 pounds. I was slim and pretty fit in high school, and I would be very happy if I was able to split the difference, and be +10 from hs (-10 from where I am now). Getting back to my hs weight is unrealistic given the way my body has changed shape in the last 16 years. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-weight-have-gainedlost-since-high-school/page/2#post-2732746 Fri, 05 May 2017 13:44:50 +0000 SweetiePie 2732746@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I graduated high school 18 years ago and I'm up about 15lbs since then. But I was super skinny then. My weight now is where I should be. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-weight-have-gainedlost-since-high-school/page/2#post-2732742 Fri, 05 May 2017 13:22:58 +0000 LindsayLou 2732742@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I graduated 11 years ago, and when I'm not pregnant, I'm usually about 10-15 lbs over my high school weight. I think I was too skinny in high school, so I'm happy with my weight. I would like to be more toned and less flabby, but I'm good with my weight. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-weight-have-gainedlost-since-high-school/page/2#post-2732728 Fri, 05 May 2017 12:49:55 +0000 LulaBee 2732728@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@KT326: Solidarity! Also, I'm 37 and don't expect to weigh the same as 18 year old me. So I'm not at my ideal weight, I'm happy and healthy and not going to beat myself up about it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-weight-have-gainedlost-since-high-school/page/2#post-2732716 Fri, 05 May 2017 12:30:11 +0000 KT326 2732716@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@LulaBee: same here. I am no where near my high school weight. </p> <p>I am 5'5" and was 125-130 in high school. 16 years and two kids later I am 183. My pre-pregnancy weight for number two was 181. I want to get back down to 145-150 as that was a good weight for me. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-weight-have-gainedlost-since-high-school/page/2#post-2732709 Fri, 05 May 2017 12:17:31 +0000 maddyz 2732709@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I feel like not that much, but really I bet it's about 10 pounds before babies. I am ok with my weight as a number right now but is really like to exercise and be leaner. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-weight-have-gainedlost-since-high-school/page/2#post-2732661 Fri, 05 May 2017 10:17:06 +0000 PeaceLily 2732661@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think I'm about 5 to 10 pounds heavier now than I was when I graduated high school. I graduated 11 years ago. I'm 5'8" and have always been thin. I think I was a bit underweight in high school. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-weight-have-gainedlost-since-high-school/page/2#post-2732594 Fri, 05 May 2017 07:47:32 +0000 LulaBee 2732594@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>This post is depressing me! I weight about 115 in high school (I'm only 5'3"). I'm around 165/170 now depending on the day. My goal is to get down to 140, but I'm weight lifting and am very strong so I'm not sure that will happen. I wasn't unhealthy in high school, just had better metabolism (and didn't drink beer and hadn't had 4 pregnancies). :silly: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-weight-have-gainedlost-since-high-school/page/2#post-2732587 Fri, 05 May 2017 07:32:39 +0000 babypugs 2732587@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm not sure, but I'd guess I'm about ten pounds up. I was pretty small thanks to dance and gymnastics. Although, breastfeeding really makes me lose weight so maybe 5 pounds at the moment. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-weight-have-gainedlost-since-high-school/page/2#post-2732571 Fri, 05 May 2017 04:29:50 +0000 Ms. RV 2732571@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Graduated 16 years ago, and 16 pounds heavier! Seven of those are post partum that i doubt I will ever shake. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-weight-have-gainedlost-since-high-school/page/2#post-2732567 Fri, 05 May 2017 00:14:42 +0000 youboots 2732567@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>+35 but I actually look like an adult. I could lose 10 lbs if I did more than just walk 3 miles a day, ate healthier and did not drink but I'm happy soooooo </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-weight-have-gainedlost-since-high-school/page/2#post-2732564 Thu, 04 May 2017 23:46:15 +0000 MrsKoala 2732564@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm up 30 lbs from high school but I was a 3 sport athlete and had an insane metabolism. I'm only 10 lbs up from college. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-weight-have-gainedlost-since-high-school/page/2#post-2732544 Thu, 04 May 2017 21:51:24 +0000 2littlepumpkins 2732544@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm about the same. I have gone up and down but have been pretty much the same the past 1.5 years since having lo2 so I think it's sort of my "normal" weight. Depending on what point in high school I might be about 5-10 lbs less now, but probably I was in better shape then. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-weight-have-gainedlost-since-high-school/page/2#post-2732543 Thu, 04 May 2017 21:39:55 +0000 ScarletBegonia 2732543@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm up about 25 lbs since high school - I've never been a waif and was a super healthy 150 lbs or so at 5'7" all through HS. I lost some weight in University, gained some weight after, got up to around 200 when pregnant (was too afraid to weigh myself) and am now sitting at 175 or so. I'm in the overweight category by BMI standards and I don't look exactly how I'd like to, but I can run a 10k faster than I could in University and kick ass at boxing twice a week so I'm happy. Getting down to my high school weight would require giving up my indulgences (I know this since I've been back at that weight twice in the last 15 years), and I'm just not willing to do that! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-weight-have-gainedlost-since-high-school/page/2#post-2732520 Thu, 04 May 2017 19:48:06 +0000 hony bologna 2732520@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I guess I'm one of the odd ones out, but I've lost 5-10 pounds since I graduated 17 years ago. I did a lot of sports in school and was all muscle and felt so strong and healthy. I later found out I have hypermobility syndrome, which makes it pretty difficult for me to build muscle unless I'm working out like crazy every day. That is so not happening right now, so I feel pretty flubby/unhealthy despite being at a low weight (120 lbs. and 5'7"). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-weight-have-gainedlost-since-high-school/page/2#post-2732513 Thu, 04 May 2017 19:30:51 +0000 KayKay 2732513@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Only 2-5lbs, depending on how hard i'm training. But definitely have more fat/less muscle...so even when the scale is close, I'm not as lean as I was back then! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-weight-have-gainedlost-since-high-school/page/2#post-2732511 Thu, 04 May 2017 19:27:27 +0000 catgirl 2732511@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Graduated 10 years ago.

I remember In high school I couldn't participate in the blood drives bc I didn't weigh enough :meh: my diet was terrible, I just was tiny due to luck and short stature. </p> <p>A year of elimination diet got me back down to high school weight (too skinny) but now I'm only nursing once a day or and eating normally I'm prob back up a few lbs. happy at this weight despite the fact that a coworker asked me if I was pregnant today (I'm not :silly: ) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-weight-have-gainedlost-since-high-school/page/2#post-2732447 Thu, 04 May 2017 15:48:21 +0000 fancyfunction 2732447@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've always been naturally very thin.

I'm only 5 ft 4. When I got pregnant with my first child I was 122 and ended up at 178. :-( I had just gotten back to about 130 and then I found out I was pregnant with my 2nd child. I ended that pregnancy at 162. I'm 19 weeks pregnant right now and started the pregnancy at 154 and am 160.

When I started 9th grade I weighed 85 pounds!!! 😳 I gained 10 pounds during high school but didn't hit triple digits until college. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-weight-have-gainedlost-since-high-school#post-2732363 Thu, 04 May 2017 13:39:19 +0000 LemonJack 2732363@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm pregnant right now, but my weight both pre and post- DD1 has been about 10 lbs heavier than high school. I'm happy with that. I eat pretty healthy and try to stay active, but obviously don't have the time or metabolism I had then. I'm hoping it's not too hard to get back to that weight once I deliver baby #2. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-weight-have-gainedlost-since-high-school#post-2732309 Thu, 04 May 2017 12:36:24 +0000 Woolly Mammoth 2732309@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was heavy in high school and lost weight in college and after.</p> <p>I'm two weeks postpartum with my second baby right now and I'm about 15 pounds under my heaviest high school weight. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-weight-have-gainedlost-since-high-school#post-2732279 Thu, 04 May 2017 11:18:09 +0000 looch 2732279@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I actually lost a ton of weight when I went to college, so I would guess I am at the same weight now as I was in high school.
