Ness 21 Apr 9:26am, 21 Apr 2025 49,972 posts	Quote Pin Ness In the past I used to have a 24 inch waist. It was that when I got married almost 30 years ago. Not now! It's crept up to 27 inches! Mr Ness says its my body shape changing because of the weight training I do. 🤷‍♀️
Rosehip 21 Apr 10:29am, 21 Apr 2025 35,185 posts	Quote Pin Rosehip my waist was always small in proportion to the rest of me - finding trousers to fit has always been a problem. It's definitely thickened with middle age spread though. and as I've got older, weight is carried differently elsewhere - I never had a fat back before!

geordiegirl 23 Apr 8:31am, 23 Apr 2025 27,860 posts	Quote Pin geordiegirl And I’m same as you n-r but I’m working on accepting that I cannot be what I used to be 20+ yrs ago. I’m listening to a podcast on comparison - comparing ourselves to others but also to our younger selves. I have been many different weights & sizes over the years as I spent my teens to 40’s battling illness. So now is time to yes be healthy in food and life choices but to also accept and not fight (adding stress) it. On that I’ve been weighing most days as normal for me, and where I was seeing an increase every time I’m now seeing decreases. I’m currently 1/2lb heavier than the beginning of the month but given I was 3.8lb heavier a couple of weeks ago I’m very happy. Let’s hope by official weigh in on Friday I’m about the same as today.
