But alas, that sort of thing cannot last and he kicked that habit (yay!) and stuck to what mother nature provides. The good side - no more teeth-rotting, brain shriveling speed - the bad side... MUNCHIES!!!

He grew a Buddha real quick!
DC was PCP (could not stand speed though), I swear I stayed high on a daily basis for 10 years. I'm lucky to be able to tie my shoes, reply some people.
The fact is I think before i started that, I had a very high IQ. Now It's not quite as high now. That's at least the theory i'm sticking to

....And that's enough OT for me then.

I'm 6' 3.6" and about 155-160 lbs, so I guess I'm pretty skinny :P

On wii fit, im on the edge between underweight and ideal.

Most of the time the difference between whether im considered underweight, is whether ive had a poo.

I'm 42 and 5'6" at about 135. I was 115 about 15 years ago, so slowly gaining--mostly around the middle. Still got the chicken legs and weenie arms, though. You'll just have to trust me because I'm not posting a pic of my pasty white self.

I think I fit the bill--6" and never over 145 lbs. Some would say "skinny," some "emaciated." I prefer "lanky." Or "tall, dark, and weird."

Finally,
A place for me!
I'm about 175cm, 101 pound, and just turned 16
And yes, there are a lot of people against us for being skinny when we don't hurt them or harm them or anything...
