Since people often ask:
I was a chubby child, slighty overweight but nothing unusual. When I went away to school I had the freedom to do what I want, and more importantly, eat what I want. I'm lazy and unsporty and brainy, so I stayed at home and studied, with the assistance of some cookies and pizza.! In my first year away from home I gained 55 lbs...my parents were shocked and disgusted. But the scary thing was, I didn't really mind, I was enjoying myself too much. I met a wondeful guy and in order to impress him tried to diet, dropping about 20lbs. But he ended up being a *evil person* and left me because of my weight. Well, now I was depressed and found comfort, in... you guessed it! Food. I ate my way out of my unhappines and started to enjoy the good things in life. Obviously my weight escalated..gaining the 20lbs I had lost, and then gaining about 60lbs more in my next year. Now things have settled down, although I still find I add the occassional couple of pounds here and there. Last I checked I was around 270ish. Sure its the good life, but still looking for *that one* who can handle a girl with this much curves.

I was actually a skinny kid growing up until I reached the age of around 11/12. My mom and dad were NOT getting along and you could feel the tension between them 24/7. I didn't know how to deal with my emotions, and unfortunately my parents didn't know how to handle theirs, so since I really didn't have anyone to confide in, I would eat to find some comfort.
I was somewhat chubby through highschool but when I look back at my pics I realize that I didn't look as bad as I thought I did. When I had my two girls, I wasn't able to lose my pregnancy weight as quicky as I would have hoped, and so I have been trying to lose the added weight gain ever since.

I was skinny as a kid. I have a twin brother and we looked some what the same. We were both skinny string beans. Though once I moved to New Jeresy girls didn't like hanging with tom boys and I had a hard time making friends. Also I wasn't doing very well in school. I grew depressed and turned to eating all the time. My Mom would yell at me which made it worse for I don't like being yelled at. Then I ate more. I would hide food under my bed and when I felt it was right I would eat the food till nothing was there. Though now I have friends and do a bit better in school. Now I have this weight problem and get depressed..so guess what I do? I eat! I'm not proud of gaining all this weight, but I'm fine with how I look. My brother is like a size 7 in pants and I'm an 18. So of course my Mom bashes me about my weight..I hate when my Mom does that, so I eat more. I always get blamed for eating all the stuff in the house too since I'm the only over weight one and it's really my brother eating the food. That's basically it. I'm trying to lose weight, but I've been stuck at the weight 189lbs for three months now..lol I get depressed easily.

Up until I was six or seven I was fairly slim for a girl, but they made me skip a grade in school because I had a very high IQ. Kids around where I live don't react good to kids doing better in school apparently and I got teased a whole lot. My family didn't react very well either, considering me some kind of smart a**. As a sort of emotional reaction I started to eat more snacks.
Unfortunately (thanks to tubby grandma's genes) I gain and lose weight very easily, but since I ate whenever I felt bad and didn't play sports because I preferred sticking my nose into books all I did was gain. Then I had to go to a dietician and gained even more and got teased even more.
My personality became pretty ******** up and I became depressed a lot of the time. It became so bad that I had to seak treatment because I got a really big depression and resorted to cutting myself as a sort of self-medication. (Now for the happy end!) In the treatment it was kind of figured out that a lot of my weight has to do with self-protection. It's easier to be rejected because you're heavy than be rejected over being smart and inquisitive. (Which is true for me because I can't help being smart, but I perhaps could help being so heavy.)
Thankfully right after my depression I met a really cool new friend and through him lots of other people and my life took a turn for the better. I've even lost 12 kilos (for now permanently) during the past year and a half. I've started dating regularly, am more outgoing and virtually depression-free. And cut-free since almost two years now. mrgreen Of which I'm very proud.
I'm still fat, of course, but now I don't mind anymore. I like the way my body looks and although there are a few areas that I'd like to touch up I no longer have that complete self-loathing I developed thanks to my family and classmates.
Sorry for the Wall O' Text. biggrin
Oh, I wanted to fill out the query, but I don't know my weight in lbs. I'm about a 125 kilograms right now. Can anyone tell me how much that is in lbs? Thanks.

Thanks. 3nodding I've got my friends to thank for all of it. They're the ones who made me realize I'm not the bad sort and that there's nothing wrong with my character. I often let them know I'm very happy with them. Again, thanks for your encouraging words.

Heh heh! I was just about to ask you the same question, Jen. Anyway I guess I should post a story. Ya see, when I was young (roughly between 8 and 10 years), I was constently mocked for many things; the least of with which being my size. That taunting, along with my severe clinical depression at the time, sent me into a habit of skipping one or two meals a day. I started getting sick on a regular basis and turned pale and unhealthy. It wasn't until my grandmother spoke up to say something about it that I desided to turn myself around. At that point I had changed. Not only was I healthy again, but I was able to shrug off almost any amount of taunting and I practically cured my depression. I'd also like to think that this was my first step in becoming an FA, as I had a deeper respect for larger people. Also I'm pleased to report that I'm at a plesent 215 lbs. Not real big, just a slight bellah.

I was the first kid born, so my parents spoiled me. They fed me more than they should, so then growing up I ate more then I should have. But what's kind of strange, I'm 12 now, and after all that eating growing up I don't eat as much as I used to. I don't have a craving for food as much as I used to. I'm almost never hungry, but I still eat what I need to. So now, I'm not morbidly obese, but I'm a little chubbier than I should be. I would post a picture, but I'm not sure how to.

hmm....my story sounds alot like everyone elses..
I was pretty skinny and I was cute too...anyway when I was growing up I was all skinny and could run faster than anyone else I knew.....I was GREAT at it....
anyways, once I got to the age of about 12 my friend moved away and my dog died in the same few days..so I got depressed and started eating, and during school I got pretty chubby, but after I graduated I lost about 10 pounds or so.....but I can still kick butt running!

My mom had me, and put me on formula right away (well pretty much) because she had to work, so I had a lot of fat in my system, and my mom makes the best chocolate chip cookies! Oh and plus I love food! 3nodding Yeah so that about covers it.
