How much weight have you gained since college? I finished there at age 22 and since then (8 years) gained 40lbs. BUT, I was underweight and needed to gain weight. No judging though, I was curious to see how much a person typically gained since then. Of course it also depends how long since you graduated.
Gained 10 lbs. and counting. College was 17 years ago for me, but the scale isn't an indicator of anything for me.
I'm naturally skinny, and while I don't gain much weight, I gain inches. My belly gets larger every few years, I have to loosen a notch on my belt, and buy new pants.
I don't enjoy heavy exercise, so I walk really fast every day for 30 minutes, but I don't even know if burning 97 calories (based on my height & weight) even does anything. It's also really hard to eat less, but I try.
I graduated from college about 23 years ago, and I've stayed about the same weight since then (apart from my three pregnancies). If anything, I am 3-4 lbs lighter than I was. I'm not saying I'm the same shape, and I've definitely lost some muscle, but I'm the same weight.
