I don't understand. You think that you are overweight? I have the same stats, am 36 and had one child at 29. I hope to still weigh around 120 in my mid-40s. I think that you are too hard on yourself.

2&3. We are both lawyers. He makes about $350K. You don't seem to care what I make, so I won't tell you.
4. If forced to classify ourselves, we would say we are extremely fortunate but not filthy rich
5. Grievance: Your theory assumes successful men only want a certain type of wife. My husband could certainly find a different type of wife, but he chose me.
6 & 7. JD/JD

Ha. I sincerely hope this is a joke.

Ok, I'll play:

1. State your height and weight. 5'3", 129 lbs, was 125-ish when I was nursing.
2. State your profession or industry federal employee with an MA
3. State what your husband's profession/industry and how much he makes. federal employee- $114k with an MPA. He is 6'1", 180lbs
4. State how would you classify yourself Middle class
5. Feel free to state any grievances with the OP of this thread. No grievances other than using the word "laydeez." Also, if you're keeping track racially/hair color, I am neither blonde nor white.

Well, some are intended to exchange interesting and/or useful info, some are intended to exchange points of view, some are intended to entertain, some are intended to manipulate or play with people...

This one looks like it's intended to collect information, but it can't really do that, which is why I speculated that it was really for some other purpose, i.e., messing with us. I haven't heard another good explanation.

Good question. My best guess is that the OP was looking to feel better about his/her own gassiness, but I wondered that myself.

If your larger point is that I shouldn't be posting in threads I find pointless, it would be hard to argue with you. My first post (when I was logged in) was intended to call the OP out for doing nothing but mess with people.

Ha- I posted above and you just made me laugh! Its ok, I do not think I will ever be "rich" and/ or "skinny". I just hope to be happy and healthy and all my family and friends the same.

This, except DW is about 107 lbs, and I make only about $300K. We too would say we are very fortunate, but not rich. And I don't have a problem with the question.

1. State your height and weight: 5'4", 125 (when not pregnant). Not sure why you ladies similar to me think this is bad...my body is amazing (but I work out a lot so I've got nice lean muscle). I'm younger than a lot of you, though (30), so maybe I will need to lose more weight when my cute perky parts aren't so perky anymore in ten years?
2. State your profession or industry: Tech
3. State what your husband's profession/industry and how much he makes: Law, $100K
4. State how would you classify yourself: Middle class
5. Feel free to state any grievances with the OP of this thread: I'd rather see everyone's age and location, too!
6. My education: MA
7. His education: JD

I don't think that's OP's fault.
