You are a little bit overweight.

Sounds like your metabolism has slowed, but your eating habits maybe didn't. Are you eating healthy and not too much or too little?

You are going to have to be mindful of what you are eating the older you get.

If you eat more healthily and maybe add some exercise, your weight will go down again.

Okay, are you out on your own and eating a whole lot different then you did at 20??

Are you pregnant?
Sorry... =[
Maybe all this caught up to you...

Best of Luck,
New Year, New You =D

umm im sorry to say this but yes i think thats too much weight u've gainned in such a short time. but it could just b the fact that u've stopped growin now so all that stuffs u eat for growin now has nowere to go to b used
im not gonna say whether u're overweight or not since it depends on whether or not u think u look good and feel good about urself, but if u want to lose weight, dont go below 110, for ur height i think goin below 110lb for u could lead to health problems

Go see a doctor about this. Get more than just one opinion.

Your metabolisim as slowed down dramaticly or you have eaten more and worked out less, I would say that it is overweight and you should think about doing a good healthy diet. I personally used a supplemental program, I used Herbalife as it has been in the weight management and wellness industry for 27 years, I lost 20 lbs in 2 weeks on this program and went on to lose 65 lbs and have kept it off for over 2 years now. You should get a doctor to check you out and talk to him about your weight gain and if you choose to do a supplemental program let him or her know what it is
I wish you luck

They say that your metabolism is the clock of life, and it does in fact infect your body more than people give it credit for. Major weight gain/loss can be affected by:
Diet- Certain foods tend to help your metabolism speed or slow down. If your food intake has changed from then to now, like, more salty foods, different average intake of carbs, etc. This can affect the way your metabolism is running
Exercise- Healthy eating and exercise are two of the most important things to help you keep a healthy constant metabolism. If you have had any change in your exercise patterns from then to now, it can directly affect your metabolism
Stress- Stress increases cortisol. Cortisol basically makes you put on weight.
There are plenty of other reasons, check it out with your physician.

after you turned 21 you likely started drinking.
alcohol has a LOT of calories!!!!!

yes that is to much weight to fast. and you are getting older. you need to cut way back on junk foods now, and start working out

Your metabolism is crapping the bed because of your bad eating habits.
