Interesting! There do seem to be quite a few thin women here.

Current: 5'7" 135lbs.
Was 125-130 since adolescence before dx.
Have always been thin/muscular build and athletic.

I was dx in 8/05 at 30 yeas old w/ a BMI of 22. I have fluxated a lot.

Throughout highschool my weight was steady and placed me around 19. College brought it up a bit probably as high as 23, and later back down to 21. Grad school brought a higher gain at first (25) and again back down to 22. After grad school I found time to get in fantastic shape bring my BMI down to 18, followed by a slow steady incline. By Law school (3 years later), I shot back up to about 24. Two years into school I lost a few pounds and at 22 BMI I was dx. As I am 5"2' we are talking about a 30 lb flux over the past 12 years.

I am ER-/PR-
