I can't believe I lost 7 pounds within 1-2 weeks. I remember the last time I weighted myself, I gained 3 pounds since my eating and living habit changed a lot. Recently, a cold and sore body have been bothering me, but I'm still eating and cooking normal, I don't know why I have lost weight.
I'm skinny and it makes me even skinnier... I think it is noit a bad news though because summer is coming, bathing suit is waiting for me! ^v^
However, I was little fatty when I was teengae and I tried different ways to lose weight and it is weird that somebody told me once you pass teenage time, you will be normal again and I did come back to skinny shape... I was worried very very much during the whole fat time...
Were you fat when you was a teenager? What did you try to lose weight? Are you fat or thin?

i wouldn't say i'm fat nor thin but i've been on the chubby side i guess.
i would love a flat stomach but i dont think it will happen. with a weddin' 25 days away, i need to look the best that i can be. you dunno how you lost the weight? would love to know the secret coz any loss will be good!!

Oh congratulations of you getting married! :-) My opinion would be drinking tones of water and you would rather eat couple meals in a day but very little portion everytime. For instance, if you usually eat the whole pasta, just eat 1/5 or 1/4.

Congrats on your weight loss. Just be careful mermaidivy. No one needs to be skinny skinny. Yech.
I was thin as a teen. And as an adult, I have to ensure I eat my full caloric amount of 1900 calories a day to maintain my weight. Otherwise I will drop weight. I am not one of those people that looks best skinny.

I am fat during my teenage stage. And still the same now that I am an adult. I guess it has something to do with the IVF. I was confine in a hospital due to dehydration and and was given an IVF for hydrating the loss fluid. I am not really worried about my weight.

During my teenage year I'm fat up to now I struggling to lose weight. I lose weight 3 years ago and gets my weight back. Sometimes I lose hope if I going to lose weight again. I tried to exercise to lose weight but it doesn't work out.I need to cut down the sweets and the oil to my diet to be able to lose weight again. Last 2 months I have a problem in heavy menstrual bleeding so I can't exercise and I think the pills that the doctor prescribe makes me gain weight again.

I was too thin as a teenager, but you could not tell me that then. I was always on a diet, when I graduated from High School I was 95 lbs.. Yes too small, I have battled anorexia for most of my youth. Now I need to lose weight, Have triplets and see what it does to your body.
I am dieting, exercising (30 day shred) I need to lose 15 lbs by May 16...

I was skinny when I was a teenager. I only realized that when I look at my old photos now. I was not anorexic but I really thought then that my arms were jiggly and my tummy was big. Now, my arms are jiggle and my tummy is big LoL! 
I do not think that I am overweight now but I really got chubby. What's ironic is that I love eating and when I was a teenager I ate a lot and i was thin. Now that I am older, I am very conscious of what and how much I eat but I struggle at not becoming too big. I guess my metabolism really slowed. Have a nice day!

when i was a teenager i was on the tall side almost 5 foot 10 and i weighed around 140-150 pouinds. i would say in the last decade or so i have put on a bit of weight got up to as high as 230, but in the last month i have started exercising more often and have lost about 20 pounds to get down to 210 pounds. i hope as long as i keep up with the exercising i will continue to lose.
hope you can keep where you want to be weight wise too.
