Sharing your weight was something that was for "the skinny girls" to do....at least it was for me...even at my ideal weight, I weigh what a guy would....can't fight large bone structure (It does happen, it isn't always "just a good excuse" to explain away being overweight)...I would have to remove a leg to get down to 150....and I prefer to keep both of them...



I have always enjoyed being tall, just was WAY TOO FAT....the FAT I can fix (now)...Thank you God!!!

I don't volunteer my weight, however if a friend and I were talking and the topic came up and they asked, I would be honest about my weight. I see weight like age; it is just a number. It is how I feel and treat others that is important. Weight and age are not something to be ashamed of. They are numbers that are associated with me, but they do not make me who I am.

I don't usually volunteer my weight regardless of where I am as far as goals.

Even when I reach my goal weight, I would not feel comfortable telling people what I weigh...last time I was at that weight was for my wedding...and when I hit that weight, I found that losing any more started to make we look REALLY weird...I have a HUGE rib cage (and it is "sadly" decorated, if you catch my drift), but the problem was that making my waistline smaller, further accentuates the giant rib structure...a GREAT look for a guy, but not for a woman...I start flashing back to a Popeye cartoon (here's where I show my age) where he landed on an island populated with "goons" who had giant chests and tiny waists...strutting around with fur pelts around their waists and wrists...kinda looked like Cavemen "gone buff"...

So will you flaunt your actually weight? Or Not?
