    Well, for once I'm ahead on this one, 40 years ahead it seems. I'm already fat....:biggrin_25526:, which means I probably won't be around in 40 years to be able to enjoy blending in. :biggrin_255:

    HEY! Don't feel bad. There's alot of you (us) lol .... out there.

    I don't jog like I used to because I got to watch those #### joints from getting to bad.

    To keep my weight now, I have to limit intake of course, but at times I splurge on things I should not have and then it's hell getting it off.

    Iam like you, I walk by any Bakery shop and I know Iam 10 pounds over weight............:biggrin_25512:

    Yeah, I'm with ya', shookup. I just tell people it's allergies. I'm allergic to food -- it makes me break out in fat. :biggrin_25523:

    I am 5-05" and 100 pounds. Thought I would gain some weight driving a truck everyday. Unfortunatelly I lost weight... No time to eat right, so I am eating less than I used to when I wasn't driving 11 or so hours a day, everyday... Besides, food at truck stops are not very appealing to a vergetarian person like me... :biggrin_25512: and very expensive. I've been living on fruits, can food, milk and nuts...

    I don't gain either. My metabolism is too high, and I pretty much stay at the same weight. I have always been classified as under weight by the docs. I can eat as much as my boys can and not put on weight. Just the way I process things, I guess.
