Fitness....

....or lack thereof.

When I was younger, my family and friends constantly pointed out that I was thin.  "You're so freaking skinny!" a boy exclaimed at youth group.  I was an avid swimmer and runner, until I was about 24, I worked out religiously.

As the years have gone on, I slowly began to lose tone.  I wore roughly the same size, but nothing fit quite as well.  With dismay, I admitted that I have begun to take on the shape and consistency of a gumdrop. 

It makes me wonder if I would have been quite so slim in my younger days without vigorous exercise.  From the time I began walking until I was about 24 years old, I exercised regularly.  If I hadn't been so active, would I have been so freaking skinny?
