I graduated in 1986 and have gone up two sizes. I have changed my eating habits and exercise 30 minutes a day, so I hope to be down a size by next month. I'm asking this question because I was on classmates.com yesterday and they are letting you view pictures for a limited time and I saw that everyone I went to school with had gained weight. And do you think it's possible to get down to what you weighed in school or are you beyond thinking that?

I graduated in 1991 and wore size 7 jeans. I think I was about 125#. Now, depending on the jeans, I'm about a 14 and I only gained 20 pounds! People say I look healthier. The weight is only in boobs and a little gut. I don't diet, but I walk a lot. I'd like to be back at 130 someday, but not 125. When I was 125 I was told I looked "sickly".
And if I could lose this gut, then random strangers wouldn't keep assuming I'm pregnant!

I graduated in 2001 and I have gone up 6 sizes! I was a size 9/10 in high school (and thought I needed to lose weight), but when I met my ex-husband I gained a few pounds and went up to a size 12. Then I got pregnant with my son and gained 50 lbs. during the pregnancy. After that I was a 14/16. I've fluctuated and lost then gained 10 lbs here and there. I haven't been able to get back below 160 and that drives me crazy! I think if I really stick to my exercise schedule and diet, with the support of my boyfriend I can get back down close to my high school weight. My goal isn't that dramatic, though. As long as I can get back down to a size 12 I'd be good. Getting down to my healthy weight range (115-125) for my height (5')is my ideal goal, whether that's my high school weight or not.

I graduated in 1998 and have gone up 4 sizes. I have had 3 children since 1996. I think it is possible to get down to the weight you were in school. I say anything is possible.

I've gone up approximately 4 sizes since I graduated in 1983. Sad, but true. Yes, of course I think anything is possible. I'd like to go down at least 2 sizes.

when graduating hs (in 1995) i was size 0, i am now a 12 after 2 kids. when i was pg with 1st child i didnt weigh 100 til i was 6 mos pg, and was in a size 3 then. after i had her it was pretty easy to lose the wt bc i was so small before. in 99 before i met my hubby i started really working out and for some reason i was an 8, got married and then in 2004 i had my son, i gained ALOT with him and i ams till trying to lose, i am now down to a 10. but i will get back down at least to a 6. that is ideal bc i am really short and everything shows when you are short. i have been walking alot when it isnt raining and have lost alot bc of this. i also cut out alot of my sodas and dont eat as much fast food as i was or ice cream(my weakness). i wish it was possible to get back down to a 0, but i was tiny, i have bigger hips now.

I graduated in '93 and have went up 2 sizes...don't want to get down that small again, I feel better now than I did then, plus when I see people I haven't seen in years they tell me I look better now since I have some meat on my bones.

When I graduated in '98, I was a size 0, if that. Now, I'm a 9. I much prefere my size now , to how waif-ish I was back in HS, so, I do NOT want to go back to my high school weight (&, seriously do not think I could, even if I wanted to)

Your college is plenty like mine with regards to how enormous it incredibly is and the lunch gadget. every time somthing occurs enormous at my college it incredibly is in many situations greater serious than a nutrition combat. Like some weeks in the past there grew to become right into a combat with some people who used steel pipes. the next day there grew to become right into a gun thret. It grew to become into all caught on video and it grew to become into on all the close by information channels and it grew to become into even on the national information.
