I thought it would be interesting to calculate roughly how many pounds I have gained and lost since I was a sophomore in high school.

Between the age of 16 and ulp, I’ll be 42 this month, so that is what, 26 years, I calculated that I have gained and lost at least 250 pounds. That does not include the 30 lbs I put on and took off for each of my two pregnancies which would add on 120 more pounds!).

When I think about it that way, it seems so bizarre. What have I done to my 5’3″ body cumulatively with all that yo-yo’ing up and down the scale?

How many pounds do you figure you have gained and lost throughout your adulthood?

P.S. I will write about the appointment with my therapist within the next day or so, after I process it in my head.
