My son is only 2, but he if slim.  I hear alot about the weight issue, but I actually have to encourage him to eat, and at the moment he is of average height for his age.  I think with good control evertything is pretty much average for CAH patients.  I think we are all different, and your genetic make up is part of it.  Oh also when Carter was an infant he was a little chubby and had the big cheeks from cortisone, but the older he gets the smaller his dose and he no longer has any cushing type looks.
