I'm in! So...let's play for something. For real.

kellyjellybelly

yeah birdie, that was me too.  except i gained weight after college.  i remember in high school one of the girls i played volleybal with actually pulling me aside and telling me she was worred about me.

And then my metabolism stopped being so effective...

kellyjellybelly

ok - ideas?

I was never tiny by any means.  But I was always very athletic and my body was solid, so I didn't care.  I have always had a ghetto booty, and I'm pretty sure I'll have that even if I was a size 2 because that's just my body.  But my body has definitely turned to mush and I hate it.  I was happy when I went for my massage last week that the woman said I had a lot of muscle tone still, but i don't feel it.  I seriously had a 6 pack in college, now I have a keg.

Hah yeah I had a flare up of IBS in high school and lost weight on top of being as skinny as I was back then. The softball moms thought I was anorexic and said something to my mom.

I wish I had the willpower that I did when I was sick a few weeks ago. If I could not want food like I didn't then, I would lose a lot more weight.

Beachy730

Yeah we definitely need some type of prize.  If I'm not the winner I want the prize to be like a triple chocolate cake or something to get the person back for beating me!  Haha is that evil?

Birdie1483

Confession: I get totally happy when I see former "popular" girls from high school on Facebook and see that they've gained a ton of weight.

crfische

Dude. I was a skinny mo fo in high school. Hold on. I'm sure I have a picture.

Birdie1483

I think I'm 14 or 15 here. I'm on the far left:

Second from the left. I played a lot of tennis.

kellyjellybelly

birdie - i sent you a PM.

I have no pics from HS on my computer.  lemme see if there are any on FB.

Birdie1483

I just want my skinny face and collar bone back. I could deal with having a little extra junk in the trunk if I didn't have a second chin anymore.

Beachy730

Wow you girls look so young.  I know I don't have any on my computer, but I'll check FB.

Ciaram22

This was me in college. I was 21 and about 130lbs.



This is me last tuesday. I'm 24 and 168lbs.

andy71781

I was fat in high school and in college and got skinny in law school.  I could totally play your work out/weight loss game but I need to lose body fat percentage more than poundage.

Birdie1483

I sent you one back!

crfische

This was after I lost my undergrad weight when I lived in Indy.


I'm tempted to post the fattest picture of myself that I have, but man. Those suck to post.

Beachy730

Andy you are welcome to all converstaions, but I hate you for this one!  Haha

kellyjellybelly

andy - i think we'd probably end up doing a percentage anyway?

i don't have any pictures to share

and I've put about 10 pounds back on - I'd love to have that body back.

Beachy730

Haha you definitely have something to add, I just hate you for being the only one who is skinnier than they were in high school!

How did you lose it all?  Just by working out a lot?

andy71781

just by running a ton. 

kellyjellybelly

there's a lot of blond in your HS there fishy

crfische

Andy. YOU. ARE. AWESOME.

andy71781

Fische you look so pretty!!!!  (you are also awesome my dear)

I should say running a lot AND eating 1200 calories a day even through marathon training which was NOT enough.  yeah I forget that part. 

Beachy730

Aww Fish good for you for posting it.  I'll see if I have one at my heaviest. 

Andy I so wish I could be a runner.  I just hate running with a huge passion.  I can go for about 5 minutes tops then just think why the hell am I doing this its so boring.

crfische

We're all Scandihoovian.

kellyjellybelly

i also hate running beachy.  i was running 3 miles a day before my wedding and i wasn't losing weight at all, so I got totally discouraged.  i am VERY easily discouraged.

Beachy730

I can't find any.  Probably because I carry most of my weight from the waist down, and always am very careful about what shows in pictures.  I definitely have noticed that i'm carrying the weight differnet this time.  This is one of the first times in my life that I've had a really bad gut, and I HATE it.  I'm sure it's a big reason why my back has been hurting so much lately too. 

crfische

Woot.
