Hey Amazonian friends.

I'm 5'11. Just under 200 lbs. I'm looking to see what other tall ladies goals are. We have a lot of body and you can fit a lot of muscle and fat on there before anyone notices.

What do you want to achieve?

    I'm 5'10, I currently weigh 156 pounds. My goal weight is 145 with muscle (not skinny fat). People ALWAYS tell me how skinny I look. Thankfully being tall, allows fat to look more proportionate, however I can feel this extra weight and I feel icky. Cheers to healthy eating and lots of exercise.

    I'm 5'11 and happily maintaining at 165 pounds. I started off at 254 pounds. I was maintaining at around 170-175 for a couple of years and was happy with that, but I leaned out more this summer.

    I love my body composition (having lean muscle and solid curves) and don't want to get any lighter, so I'm working hard everyday to maintain my figure and continue to be fit and strong!

    Good luck with your goals ladies!

    I'm 6'1. I started out at 250 and am currently hovering around 200. My goal is to maintain between 190-195 for awhile and then see if I want to go lower or not. I might aim for a very small deficit (-150) and see where I end up. Might just aim for some slow recomp at 190.

    I'm 6'0", looking to get down to 168. That's just an arbitrary number right now as I've never been under 270 as an adult, so it might go down more once I get closer to goal (still have 145lbs to lose, down 55 so far) and actually see what that weight looks like.

    I hope to get stronger as I lose more weight. My goal isn't just to be skinny, but to be strong!

    That's an awesome journey to take! I'll let you know, at my fittest (DL 275 fit) I weighed 180 and wore a size 2. Muscle can really pack into a tight space!

    5'11, started out at 320, currently around 245, and a preliminary goal of 180. I've never been under 240 as an adult, and haven't been under 200 in a very long time. I picked a round number right above "normal" for BMI and figure I'll adjust when I get there.

    hiya! I'm 6'1" and currently 314 pounds. Short term goal is 280, long term goal is 220 (which will finally put me at an "overweight" bmi).

    I agree with you all that weight does not look the same on a taller woman! I worked at Lane Bryant for a while and people didn't consider me "fat" even though I was at the higher end of the 200s and wearing 18/20!

    178 cm or 5'10.5. Started at 247 and currently at 192. I started wearing 16/18 and xl/xxl - currently in 10's with a few random 8's. I wear mediums and starting to lean towards smalls. My goal is 135 lbs but may stop before depending on how I feel. Ideally 63 -64 kg is the highest I want to be. My main goal is to at least be able to buy some clothes in Korean shops.
    I never looked as heavy as I really was. People are always shocked by the real numbers. Well I am heaviest in my stomach and hips my weight is pretty evenly spread (although I am pretty busty still)

    5'11 and maintaining ~145 with I would guesstimate 20% BF. Pear-shaped and super lean on top. Carry my weight in my thighs and legs. Aiming for recomp but frankly, I'm taking it easy this summer - I'm super active but not as super focused. I was on a roll with recomp in late Spring (progress pics in profile). I'll recommit to recomp in the Fall.

    At 142, my face gets too lean and "old". At 150, I feel too thick.

    What goal are you thinking of setting for yourself?

    I'm 5'10", started at 395 in a size 28, currently 310 and size 20. My goal right now is 165-175 as that would put me in a healthy weight range for the first time since I was a child. Once I'm close I will reassess based on how I feel and look as I know there will quite a lot of lose skin to contend with at that point.

    I am 6'1" and weigh now 209. I have been on MyfitnessPal for 28 days. I lost 5 pounds. My goal is 175 right now and I will see if that is a good weight for my height. We also have to take in account our Body Type. I am medium boned so I do not think I should be less than 165. I want to lose faster but I know that it took a long time to put on the weight so I have to go slow taking it off. I eating 1320 calories a day. I have read a lot of info. about losing weight and most agree that exercise is very important. I do less than I used to because of some medical issues but trying to do some everyday.
