I find that one should revise one's ideal weight up by ten pounds every decade. At 16 I weighed 110 pounds and figured that was about perfect. At 25 I realized 120 was really the ideal size for me, and now that I'm 35 I see that I was wrong all along and I was really built to weigh in at 130. Happy belated birthday.

I wouldn't go back to 20 at all. No, thank you. Nuh uh. I'll take 31 any damn day :) Because, you nailed it, you're so much more comfortable and confident in who you are. Happy Birthday, baby!!!

Why did I worry so much about things that eventually did come to me? The only way I would go back is if I could know then, what I know now!

I agree completely. While I'd love to have my younger figure back (and maybe an opportunity to flirt ambitiously now and then), I am infinitely happier here in my mid-thirties than I was as a twenty-something. And 20 pounds heavier? Good gravy - you must have been malnourished then, because you are absolutely gorgeous now. Happy birthday!! I agree completely.
