Default Did you gain, maintain, or lose weight after HS?

I weight less than I did, I used to weight about 142lbs in 2002 and now I weight 132lbs which is good.

I've had a net gain of almost 40 pounds since 2005; 147 to the 180's, but I've started working out and hope to drop it to under 170.

I always stay at the same weight -- I can barely eat at all; I can eat loads as well, but for some reason I never gain or lose any weight.

I am pretty much the same. I've been about the same weight for as long as I've been this height, although I think I may have finally gained a couple of pounds earlier this year (I haven't weighed myself in months).

After leaving High School I actually began gaining weight. But that wasn't due to poor diet or a lack of exercise but the opposite of all of that. Plus it helped that my metabolism slowed down just enough so I could retain weight, thus I now have muscle woo hoo!

Height: 5"6'
During high school: 120lbs, barely
Now: 140lbs, very little body fat

Ignoring the Paxil issues right now, I started eating healthier so I lost weight when I entered college.

I lost weight. I'm 6'1" and back in high school I weighed 180 with a 34" waist. After I graduated and started working full time I dropped to 165 and a 32" waist, which I've maintained for over 12 years. I don't think I could gain weight if I wanted to...I eat like a horse but my weight never fluctuates by more than two or three pounds either way.

Lost. I used to have to eat breakfast otherwise I'd fall asleep in school, now I don't eat it at all so I'm down to 1 meal a day (I'm not a lunch person) and a couple of snacks usually so I'm constantly losing weight, albeit slowly. I'd like to put weight on but I don't have the appetite.

I gained weight, but I was underweight when I graduated high school anyway.

Lost nearly 40 pounds around sophomore and junior year of college. This is due mostly to extremely poor eating habits and a total lack of appetite more than responsible diet and exercise.

I think I lost some. But maybe because I kept growing I gained but not in fat.

When I was in high school, I was a fatass and as soon I got out of high school, I lost major weight and became athletic.

I lost about 30-40 pounds after high school, and still trying to lose the last 15. It's not going well. Damn this American abundance of food.
