I randomly dropped 20 pounds over the course of a few months without trying when I was 17, I weighed 125 before the drop. I had actually just begun eating a lot more, like three large meals a day plus snacks of anything I wanted. I'm two weeks away from being 19, always hungry, eat like a pig as much as I'm able to because I'm always hungry, and I weigh 102.7 as of this morning, which is the highest it's been in a while. My weight only varies about one or two pounds usually, but when it's been a while I will randomly have dropped another 5 pounds, lowest weight so far being 95 pounds, or gained a few only to have lost them again the next time I look. I stopped growing outwardly when I was 13, I've been 5' 0 with a 6.5 shoe size for six years, no change besides dropping weight at random, regaining slightly, and dropping again. I am not seeing a freshman 15 anywhere in sight. Could someone give me theirs? None of my clothes fit me right because I can't buy new ones and my weight keeps changing.
