[quote=Anonymous]5’3” - in high school, was 120-125 lbs. Now, 110-120 lbs. changes in adulthood are mostly due to muscle gain/loss from illness and injury - I may have more of a belly at times but my clothing size doesn’t change much.

I am not sure how much i currently weigh and don’t keep track of what I’m eating. I don’t restrict myself from anything, but I get full easily so I eat 4-5 small meals/snacks a day with water and tea or black coffee- maybe soda a few times a week. I grew up eating small portions, have an active job, take public transportation, and enjoy exercising/sports. I don’t like oily food and stopped drinking a long time ago. So in that sense no, I don’t put effort into maintaining my weight. The only time i think about my high school weight is when I come across an old piece of clothing that still fits.

On the other hand, if the above habits weren’t already part of my daily routine, it would be quite difficult to maintain them regularly. My older relatives have to work very hard to stay in shape because their routines are different.

Also, if my ADHD was untreated, I’d be gorging myself on snacks all day (which is why I weighed more in high school) - or back to drinking uncontrollably. So that makes a big difference.[/quote]
