I’ve lost weight, too.
And a bit of height as well.
Back in 1972 when I graduated, I was just under 5’7" and about 130 lbs.
Now I am just over 5’6" and about 118 lbs.
I weighed 90 pounds in high school. Two kids and twenty years later, I’ve added fifteen pounds. I look better.
My drivers license from 1972 (I saved it), when I was 16 says and ran track, says I weighed 135 pounds. Now I’m 210. Some of that is muscle. I should note that, soon after 1972, I discovered tasty, tasty beer.
I used to make fun of my Dad for his weight. Now my lean muscular son makes fun of me … I just smile. My revenge is coming.
47 yrs old, +55# since HS
Graduated HS 155 at 6’4"
In college, increased to 175 through lifting.
Next 10-15 yrs, hung between 175-85.
Around age 40, increased to 215 through lifting/diet for MA competition.
Thereafter dropped to 185 while training for marathon.
Last few yrs, pretty steady between 200-210.
Would like to get under 200, but don’t see that happening.
I’ve gained almost 40 pounds since high school, and people still tell me I’m thin. As you might surmise, in high school I looked like a concentration camp inmate.
However, enough is enough . . . I don’t want to gain any more!
I was between 100 and 110 in high school. Twenty-four years later, I weight about 145-150. I’m 5’5.5", by the way.
I’ve gained some 30 pounds since 1974, but, oddly enough, still a size 12!!! 
185cm
I think I weighed around 65kg when I finished high school, but I was still ‘filling out’.
When I finished college, I was around 75kg and in terrible shape: I’d barely exercised at all and was basically a stick insect with a pot belly. The result of four years of sitting in front of a computer eating pizza.
My weight since then has gone as high as 90kg. I’m now down to 82 and probably in much better shape. I exercise regularly, have given up junk food, and can jog a 10k without feeling winded. I actually have abs now. Abs!
Shrimp in high school (and not fully grown, I graduated @ 16) - I was 5’10" and 122lb. when I graduated ('99).
Now I’m 6’ and 155lbs. I guesstimate that the difference is approximately a 50/50 muscle/beer gut split…
Male, 5’10"
I graduated in 1982 and probably weighed 165 pounds soaking wet and with $50 worth of change in my pockets.
I now weigh 205 and have 12% body fat.
People who knew me then but haven’t seen me in the intervening years don’t recognize me as I have filled out quite a bit.
Graduated in 91: 5’5" 120
17 years later (and three kids) I’m 30 pounds heavier. I’d be happier if I lost 15-20 pounds, but I’m OK as I am.
I graduated in 1996 about 170 lbs. (6 feet tall). I was working out then, and got real serious with it over the next few years. By 20, I was 192 and in the best shape of my life.
Then, things got interesting…although I was big at 190, I was determined to get “huge” (it wasn’t a good mindset, trust me). I gorged on food until I got to a high of 210, which wasn’t nearly the quality I was at at 190. Then, unfortunately, I hit a long bout of depression, and my senior year of college I pretty much stopped eating and fell back to about 160 (people said I was emaciated).
I’ve screwed my head on since then, and am healthy and working out regularly at about 200 pounds. I’m working on dropping down to about 190…it’s too bad that working full time and getting older (I’m now 30) make that such a challenge, but it’ll happen.
6’ male here. 172 pounds my senior year in high school, drifted higher in college and early 20s. Last time I weighed myself I was 165, so I’m down 7 pounds.
A little over 5’9" now (176 cm) probably almost an inch shorter in high school. I was relatively skinny, with some upper body from being on the swim team. I had a 29" waist and weighed about 150 lbs. I’ve got a 30" waist and weigh about 18 lbs. more than then; mostly muscle, but some extra fat too.
I started to get thicker my early twenties, which made me throw out a whole bunch of clothes that I’d been able to wear since I was about sixteen or seventeen. Part of that was probably the year I spent loading trucks for a living. Lifting 45 to 85 lb. boxes all day will probably do that. All my old clothes got tight, especially in the shoulders and thighs. My waist size went up by about an inch even though I didn’t have any pinchable fat on my stomach. Even my wrists got thicker; I had to get a couple of watch bands adjusted.
I was in good shape until I broke my wrists several years back. I got up to a high of nearly 90 kg about four years ago from being a lazy bastard and eating poorly, adjusted my diet a bit and exercised down to a low of 75, went back up to 85 while planning my wedding. I got back on the exercise wagon about a year and a half ago, and am currently at just over 76 kg (167~168 lbs.) with a body fat estimated at around 14~15% from tape measurements and an online calculator. I need to get some calipers sometime to get a really good reading.
I was steady at about 80 kg for six months after an initial gradual weight loss of 5 kg, and just suddenly dropped 3 kg, mostly fat, in the last month as I started putting in a consistent extra day of exercise each week. I know for sure that I’ve put on a lot of muscle over the last few months, which is why the weight readings weren’t changing for a while. I expect to go back up a few kilos as I put on more muscle, probably to around 80 kg again, with even lower body fat and more muscle than I’ve got now.
My weight fluctuated wildly in my teen years, but I wear near the heaviest (about 270) when I graduated (24 years ago). Today I weigh around 230, overweight certainly but, unlike most of my classmates (even- especially- the jocks) I’m smaller than I was then (and unlike a lot of the jocks, I still have thick hair- nyah nyah nyah nyah nyah! )
I graduated in 1959 at about 130 pounds; I was a scrawny little guy. Now, at 68, I weigh 170. My current weight has been pretty consistent for the last ten years or so. In the fifty years since high school, I’ve gained 40 pounds.
Edited: I graduated in 1958, dern it.
I’m not sure what I weighed when I got out of high school. But a little over a year later, when I got out of basic training for the Army, I weighed 155 pounds, and I know I didn’t lose all that much, just toned it up.
I now weigh 176 pounds, and am on my way to 168, my goal.
I’m 'bout the same, which is to say I’m not sure what I was or what I am now but I was skinny then and now. I got a bit paunchy in between times (which probably put me about right for my height) but I’m back walking regularly and have leaned off again. I’m almost certainly underweight by average standards, but I’m not trying to change that either way, hence I’m not checking and don’t really want to know. I’d guess I’m about 60kg. 5’8", 18 years since high school.
When we were in High School, we were still growing. Trust me when I say, being 8 lbs more than HS just wouldn’t cut it for me. When I graduated I maxed out at 95 and now that I’m 48, 150 isn’t bad. Maybe my wife’s cooking???
When I graduated I was 5’4 and 105 lbs. I am now 5’7 and 162. I was a slow grower and continued to gain height until I was nearly 22 years old. I STILL look thin in certain places though, and I’m 28 now.
