Its so true, everyone is an individual. I look at my own family and our weight issues, specifically my sister and I. I currently at 221lbs, and my sister is about 175-180 and we wear the same size clothing. The difference in our height is negligable. If my sister and I aren't proof that those weight charts are less than perfect, I don't know what is!

Lol when you pointed out that the weight averages are just statistical computations, I got thinking about the stats course I had to take this past year for my degree...if anything is THAT complicated and anti-logical, it can't be trusted anyway!!! Lol

I also really like what someone else said about how she'd weigh more than people thought, but she'd be doing it from a size 8! Thats about how I feel. I don't mind being 170-180lbs but I will shock people that this size 10 hottie weighs that much! Yay!
