I weigh less.

I was a fatty (baby fat kind of chubby) in HS. Now I’m not. I thank college and time spent in the gym.

+40 lbs because I got my eating disorder under control.

I weigh almost 50% more, but I used to be incredibly skinny in HS, to an unhealthy degree (not for any particular reason - I didn't diet but just had a very fast metabolism and played several sports very seriously).
I'm about 10lbs more than where I ultimately want to be, so should reach it in a couple of months.

Funny you say that. I was 190 as a high school senior then have been anywhere from 205-215 since college. Just got over Covid and made me back down to 190 for the first time since hs.

I don’t remember my exact weight in HS - never really weighed myself back then - but I’d guess I’m maybe 5 lbs more now at age 39. I found my prom dress a few years ago and tried it on- it fit but was snug 🤣

I weigh more, but I was also a late bloomer, so I grew even in college. I’m also a lot stronger than I ever was then, and I’m happy with how I look. No complaints!
