According to this, the average US woman is 5' 3.8". This means I'm just about a couple of inches shorter than average. Entirely within the normal range to my way of thinking...although it's clear that some of you are just freakishly tall.
I mean that in a good way.
The article also says that the average weight for a woman in the US is 163 pounds. I don't think I came close to that even when I was pregnant but I have nothing snarky to say about those who do...you all could totally kick my butt.
I mean that in a most respectful way.
It's interesting that the more we (as a country, not you and me personally) concern ourselves with being thin, the more weight we tend to gain - up 11 pounds on average in less than a decade.
