My baby boy was born at 8 lbs 4 oz.

Five years later he weighed 60 lbs.

Five years after that he weighed 110 lbs

Five years after that he weighed 130 lbs

Five years later he weighed 180 lbs.

Five years later he weighed 195 lbs

So his weight gain is down. But now he's a fully grown adult. When does shrink back down to the size of a baby?

I think the closest you'll get to that is when he starts a small economy of his own.
