I am 37 years old .. of COURSE my metabolism is lower than when I was 25 and 135 pounds ... sheesh ...
The only assumption I made is that when you said you were 135lbs after giving birth but aren't any more is that you lost the weight through exercise.
I only made that assumption because you implied weight loss and someone pointed out to me that you do a lot of exercise in the military. It's a fairly easy conclusion to draw.
Obviously you dont go the same gyms as I do (DUH) ... LOTS of heavy people work out ... lots of heavy people are fit, just heavy .. lots of overweight people can run circles around me (football anyone?)
I don't go to gyms at all. :P
How many of the overweight people do you see there every day? Or, more to the point, do you just see different fat people there every day because they aren't sticking with the exercise program? The ones that you do see regularly, any chance they are getting a little smaller over time?
I guess my point is .. do NOT assume that every person who is thin is healthy .. unless you have a degree in health and know different :)
Actually I assume the opposite: every person who is heavy is unhealthy. I may not be right 100% of the time, but in a country where airlines are considering raising rates for obese people because of the extra gas used I'm guessing I'll be right quite a lot.
... o .. duno if you know about this site or not ... but check out Monster.com for job openings .. within a week and a half of being with me, Arilin had a very nice job offer and has been thru two interview processes (yeah I know that was random .. but thats the kinda mood i am in today)
Yeah, been to monster. Well, just got fired the other day so haven't done much searching yet... but I did a lot of searching on monster last year and ndidn't come up with much. :(
and, if my ex who is a heart attack waiting to happen with his cholesterol level and drinking/partying lifestyle is healthier than you ... damn you must be ill!
Well, I've gained 50lbs over the last year... I'm sedate as hell and pretty much don't watch what I eat. Don't go to doctors much either, so couldn't tell you what my cholesterol was... heh.
As for drinking/partying... the one summer I was actually going out every weekend is the same summer I lost a bunch of weight. I think it was the dancing... ;)
