So, yesterday turned out a little interesting. Unexpectedly, though I knew that it needed to get handled this week, we went and got the car checked/certified by the Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) that Oregon requires for all cars to be registered in the state. This Saturday I go and get my license (I have to pass the written test-- ( Read more... )

Wow the weight comments of this post sound sooo much like me! Even the weight limits! I'm not sure how tall you are, but I'm about 5'2, and at the beginning of the year I was about 136, and I've gotten down to between 122 and 125 depending on the day. I've been stuck at this range for a couple months now so I think this is where my body wants me to be? I refuse to give up things I love in order to be skinny, but I am okay with compromise :P

AH! I am also "almost 5'2." I'm at that weird spot between 5'1" and 5'2" where I usually say, "I'm 5'2" if I stand up straight and breathe in." XD But, yeah, I got up to 138.9 or something ridiculous. My weight from high school was 120lbs, which I prefer to be at because though I have gotten older, my actual body hasn't changed. I'm the same way--I won't live my life by cutting out everything I enjoy just to lose those last couple pounds if it comes down to it. I might exercise a little harder, but...what's the point of cutting out things I enjoy? Is the meaning of life just to be as thin as possible? =/

Exactly! It was a hard transition after high school for me, because my body has changed a lot. Until I was 16, I was very steady at a size 0 or 1 (I have no idea my weight, maybe 110? I was a T.W.I.G. Flat all around). Then when I was 18 I got down to 115 after jumping to 125 (big boobs and hips develop out of nowhere!!), and maintained that for a year, but moving to ND ruined my weight and I stayed 136 for a few years. I've been slowly moving back on down, but it would be nice to be at 120 again and stay there. It doesn't help that ALL the professional sources say our "ideal" weight is 110. ... ... MEAN.

And I come in at exactly 5'1 3/4, but I don't usually tell people that. :P It's come into play because my brother is 12 and is 5'1. And my sister is 18 and is, yeah, like 5'7. Haha me and you could be twins. ;)

My friend Lynette was the same--totally a twig in high school, then as she got into her 20s, suddenly gaining weight until she was around 125lbs. She's not fat, but it's a bit of change from like 100lbs. XD I was already fully developed by the time I entered high school, and so I really haven't altered since. So, gaining weight for me at this point is just me getting fat. I've now been over 130 for a year and a half (AAAHHHH), but I've had to do this once already before (you'd think a girl would learn....), so I know what I need to do to whip my body back into shape ( ... )
