    I'm at my goal weight but could stand to lose another 5lbs at least and tone up. I still have my saddlebags and a bit of a squishy tummy.

    Age: 33
    SW: 328
    CW: 304 (After a little over a month of changing my habits!!!)
    Initial GW: 199 (I will go from there! Would like to be down to 160 as a final GW!)

    I am an hourglass shape, not that anyone has seen that in years! I have had some health problems over the several years. I had a total hysterectomy about a year ago. Between my health problems and changing to an office job, I have packed on the pounds! I am finally able to focus on getting healthy! I am hoping to see myself out of the 300's by the end of this week!

    Once I get to a healthy & happy place, I am NEVER going back!!!

    Amazing story you have shared. You are an inspiration! Best of luck to you in getting where you want to be!!! Thanks for sharing!

    GW 118 I think

    Basically I would like to turn all the flabby bits to toned muscle and I am not so concerned about the weight as long as the result looks hot and makes me feel more energized.

    5'7 3/4" here (weird, I know, but it counts). :blushing:

    My start weight: 166
    Final goal weight: 125

    I'm an hourglass pear who carries weight in the butt and thigh. My arms are thin and noodle-y. My shoulders are broader than my hips no matter my size.

    Hi, Everyone...!

    I am 5'6", and I am currently in a very snug size 12 jeans. My starting weight was 180, currently am 174 and my goal is 140. Truthfully, my goal is to get back into a size 8 jean, comfortably! My body shape is a full hourglass...42-28-44.

    343 lbs right now. Yuck.
    Goal weight... about 140 lbs.
    5'8

    Pear shape and not liking it. Big hips and small stomach does NOT make buying trousers easy!

    I'm 35 and 5'6".

    SW: 151
    CW: 146
    GW: Not really sure- I'm more interested in measurements than scale right now. I'd be okay at 140 if I were lean and strong.

    I guess I'm pear shaped but gain a lot of weight in my belly. I kind of look like a snowman with legs. :grumble:

    I'm 5'8"

    For My Fitness Pal (I joined in March), my SW was 262. Currently 235.

    GW of 220 for this year...long term GW undetermined, probably in the 180-200 range.

    Currently wearing a 1X top and 18 in most things, although a few of my 20's still fit well enough that I'd say I'm an 18/20 right now.

    I am a pear shape but not drastically so at this point. I do think the more weight I lose, the more pear shaped I appear...but I am ok with that.

    I'm feeling kind of like a freak of nature here- wasn't going to reply to this thread but now I'm curious lol.

    I'm 5'7"
    Starting Weight- 280
    Current Weight- 205
    Goal Weight- 150

    I've always considered myself to have an hourglass figure, even at my heaviest. My chest and hips are proportionate and my waist has always been smaller than both.

    The reason I feel like a freak is that I'm currently wearing (comfortably, not too tight AT ALL) a size 12 pant. I'm seeing all these beautiful women on here posting about how they wear a 12 or a 14 and they all weigh at least 30 lbs less than me. What gives?

    I'm 5'6.75" and a pear.
    SW: 150+, with 32" waist, size 10+
    CW: 127, with 35.5" size 2/4
    GW: n/a - just want to continue toning and building a bit of muscle and definition. That may take me up and down a few pounds.

    It took me a while to get the fitness thing down. I have a busy schedule, long commute, etc. I've found consistency and myfitnesspal to be key. Diet is 90% of weight loss, no matter how hard you work out.

    I welcome new friends!!

    I'm 5'6, age 25 and pear shaped.
    SW: 130
    CW: 121
    GW: 120

    I started out with a GW of 115, but I don't think that's going to be very possible or healthy for me. I'm debating going on maintenance very soon, but I'm nervous about it. I'm currently at 1200 calories/day. Any of you ladies who've reached your goal have any tips for going on maintenance. Should I do it gradually?

    I going to guess its dependent on where you carry your weight. I'm 190 lbs and fit comfortably in a size 12 and my sister is 165-170 lbs and wears a 12-14. I have no hips and butt but she does. My mother wears a 14 and weighs about 30 more lbs than me but her body shape is different than mine as well.
