[quote=Anonymous]Hmmmmm, sometimes I wonder if it was a hidden blessing as I age that I have no metabolism at all! I always hear, your metabolism slows way down in your 30s and then again when you hit 40. But I've always been that sort of thicker girl athlete from childhood and into even now I play in rec leagues and run and do yoga and swim and take martial arts and you can tell I am fit but just carry a little more weight than other people. So I guess maybe in my 40s and 50s I will at least be used to having to watch what I eat and just to remain in the normal range but at the higher end- because I always have had to?

Any one else have that experience that is older?

I will admit though that it has never been easy having body image problems, its sad to me that aside from a few years, I have felt bad about myself in some way almost every day since I was 11 years old, that's over 20 years. Even in my positive years it crept in, I guess those years I was just better at working on it and me. Especially at the years I was thinnest sometimes it was really bad too - in college when I had developed really restrictive habits, I look at photos and I had a hot little body and a chunky face and back then all I could see were there tiny love handles and big cheeks and would cry myself to sleep. How sad. someday i hope to grow out of it completely, i hope to not have to pass this on to a girl :([/quote]
