About 25 lbs heavier. Have 4 kids w/ hubby (2 kids prior to wedding; 2 afterwards). Youngest is 2.5. Would be happy with 15 lb weight loss. Lack motivation. Pissed that weight gain mainly came about after tubal ligation last Oct.

Married 10 years - 3 kids. 125 at wedding, 130 today. I'm okay with my build (I'm sure I'd lose more if I could stop sweets / alcohol -- but then I'd be cranky and hubby would be sad). For PP -- I hate to say it but I had a tubal 20 months ago and didn't gain any weight.

Now, veins?! Oy! I could tell you, I have some UG-LY veins on my legs that were not there at my wedding!!!!

I am a newbie

Maried at 28 a year ago. Lost 15 lbs but it started with the pre-wedding stress and exercise and then I kept up the exercise.

I am sure one I get pregnant this will all do down hill...but enjoying it for the moment.

Married at 28, been married 9 years, 3 kids.
I now 37 and am the same weight I was pre kids but up about 15 from my wedding. I was a stick at my wedding, I sort of cringe looking at the pictures because I was way too thin-- it wasn't a good look for my frame. Ane yet at the time I was worried I was heavy. I had some wacky issues with food/weight in my youth.

Married at 26, been married for 5 years with two kids (3, and 1). Weighed 112 lbs at wedding, currently at 115. These 3 pounds come and go. DH gained about 30-35 lbs.

Married at 23, 1 kid. Marriage lasted 17mo (DC was 8mo), I lost almost 20lbs. I was 125 on my wedding day, 160 at 9mo pg and about 105 the day I walked away.

It's taken 2yrs to get back to a healthy weight. I dropped below 100 during the divorce. (I'm 5'4", I looked like skeletor). I'm finally back at 125, DC is 2.5yo.

Stress and abuse makes me stop eating and start throwing up. I don't recommend losing almost 60lbs in 8mo, I've STILL got extra wrinkly old-man skin on my belly from the rapid weight loss.

Same weight until I got preg about 6 yrs into marriage (married at 25), had baby and at 4 months PP, I'm up 10 lbs (hope to shed it once I can go back to the gym, maybe back to normal weight in another 6 months).

Got married at age 33 and have been married for 7 years. One child. I've been in the 115-120 lb range since high school. Now I weigh 122 but my body shape has definitely changed. I attribute this to pregnancy and aging.

What is considered a normal/ good weight range for average height woman, say 5'5', average build.

120 pounds - 160 pounds??

Married at 27. Fourteen years and two kids later, I'm up about 25 lbs. DH is probably up about 10-15.

Weight loss used to be much easier for me, but I swear the minute I turned 40 it became impossible.

Married at 23, been married 14 years. Weigh about 15 pounds more than when we got married, but like 8:33, I care less about the weight and more about the nasty spider veins. My legs are gross!
