    Hey peeps,
    I love cheese, and yeah I refuse to give up on that love, I'm just trying to work it into my daily calorie goals.

    I'm 5'3 I've been 180-190, mostly I was around 160lbs, I did get down to 127lbs at one point (took me about a year) and ironically still was skinny fat because I had no tone, all sorts of jiggle.
    Now I'm restarting at 156lbs, stronger than ever doing strength training, currently 151 lbs and I think I'll see what 140lbs with tone looks like, 130 seems to be a common number but I've seen girls with hourglass figures pull off all sorts of weight since it's more proportional.
    Sadly I gain weight in my boobs and stomach, so I've been working on my booty and abs, along with overall weight loss.

    Feel free to add me if you love cheese and sarcasm, otherwise best of luck everyone!

    I'm 5'3 and started my weight loss journey 8 weeks ago at 238.5 lbs. As of this morning I'm down 20 pounds and hoping to get to my first goal of 188 lbs. by the end of August. Ultimately, I would like to get down to the 165-175 lb. range.

    I am 5' 3" started at 168 on 27th January 2016 and now on 155. So 13 weeks and lost 13 lbs.

    So very happy indeed, key thing is my weight loss is irregular and so to just plough on with it and not be discouraged by ups and downs.

    I hope to get to 140lbs by Autumn (fall) and then maintain for while and see how 140 feels. I think I really want to get to 130lbs but it feels easier to set 140 as a goal.

    Hi! I am 5'3 and started around 231/232. I currently weight 201.6 and have been really dedicated for the past 3 months. I lose slower than most and had to come to terms with that. To that end, I really try to set other goals, rather than focusing solely on the scale. I try to work out at least 5 days a week, getting in 10k steps every single day, drinking at least 10 cups of water, tracking, etc. I feel that if I am succeeding at these goals then eventually the scale will follow!!

    5'5, SW 362lbs, CW 224lbs, GW 175lbs - It has been a long road and I hope to reach the end of it someday. I have been battling food and sickness the last year so I have lost a few, gained a few, and just been in the dumps. Just wanted to share - One day at a time, one meal at a time, & Eat to Live, Don't Live to Eat.

    I relate to your issues. The big thing is we never stop trying. My motto is "Believe"

    I'm 5'2" and started at 163 in October last year. I'm currently at 142 after about 6 weeks recently of losing and gaining the same couple of pounds! My goal is to get to 125, but may try to get to 121 as that's a nice round 3 stones lost and I'm all about the neat and tidy :smiley:
