Looking back one ye...Mom9-Yes, it is most exciting. Looking back one year ago, Cryptic was only 86 lbs at 14 1/2 years old. I remember a short time ago praying he would get above 80! Looking back at the records we just got from the doc to take to his surgeon for sinus surgery that he needs, it said that he was 36 lbs when he was six years old! reminded me how he did not get to 50 lbs until he was about nine. It was SO HARD not to worry. I could see his heart beating in his chest, he was so scrawny:( So yes, this is indeed incredibly thrilling! For him to gain 16 lbs in just one year, when it used to take we used to be thrilled if he gained 2 or 3 in one year is very encouraging!<BR/><BR/>Mighty-Thanks! I am glad there are so many people who understand:)<BR/><BR/>Claire-EXACTLY! It does seem strange, I just wish people could stop worrying about shape, weight and size and just try and focus on being healthy!<BR/><BR/>Jude- Me too! I was 98 lbs when we were married, but I am only five foot one, so I didn't think it was too gross. Besides the fact that there was nothing I could do anyway, I ate constantly and just couldn't gain. Now, if only I could give 20 lbs to Cryptic, we would all be happy:)<BR/><BR/>Vince- Yes, that sounds like Cryptic alright. In fact, Clown just got to 60 lbs and we are impressed. I hate to make things like this an issue, but he thinks he is too small and keeps trying to gain. Little does he know that Cryptic weighed what he does now at 8 years old, when he was about 11 or 12. Maybe I should tell him?? Would it help or make him focus more on weight??<BR/><BR/>Chas-No, they sure don't. And they are hassling Nicole Ritchie (Richie???) about being small so soon after giving birth. I was the exact same, you would never know I had had a child and somehow that is a BAD thing or something people focus on?? People need to get a life & concern themselves with other more important things. Thanks for understanding you guys!<BR/><BR/>Jinny- I looked at it and will try to get over there soon:) Looks fun!Lowahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11014088685507756473noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10017930.post-26208613200114499732008-04-05T13:58:00.000-07:002008-04-05T13:58:00.000-07:00Hey you, I tagged you on my blog. :) Can't wait t...Hey you, I tagged you on my blog. :) Can't wait to hear everything.Jinnyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16787680143499841900noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10017930.post-44965850634311157792008-04-02T21:09:00.000-07:002008-04-02T21:09:00.000-07:00I can relate to that.

By the end of high school I was up to around 115, but I was 5'9", so it really wasn't a wonderful weight gain b/c of the height.
