Each page in the book has a bunch of stuff to fill in each year to keep track of my growth and the opposite side of that is a space for a school picture which is also a folder that holds my report cards, awards, and anything else significant.
The reason I wanted it is because every year we recorded my height and weight.
Tonight I looked up my stats at age 8, 11, 13, and 18 just to see if by general standards, I was in a normal range for my age/height/weight.
At age 8, I had a BMI of 16.9.
At age 11, it was 19.5.
At age 13, it was 21.5.
At age 18, it was 23.5.
At all four ages I was considered in a "healthy range". It was interesting that it continued to increase rather than staying steady.
Why is it that I always felt chubby my entire childhood? Even my daddy nicknamed me "Chubbs" at some point as a small girl, but I don't remember feeling bad because of that, I saw it as a term of endearment honestly.
Maybe other school kids made me feel different than everyone else and I just grew to believe it myself.
Funny to see that when I graduated high school in 1995, I weighed around 155 lbs, which is well within my ideal range that I want to get down to.
