    5ft, 6 in, female, 34 years old, mom of three whacky kids :tongue:
    Goal: 135
    SW 170s (first time I weighed in was with clothes on, so I don't have a very accurate starting weight)
    CW 125ish, have been in maintenance for several months now and fluctuate between 124-127lbs
    Plan I followed: alternate day intermittent fasting for weight loss; maintenance has been a hodgepodge of experimenting with different ways of eating. Currently transitioning to a whole foods, plant based diet and so far I'm totally loving it!

    5'10"
    Start: 401
    Current: 377
    Goal: 200

    The goal is sort of more arbitrary for me. My issue is that I cant do the things I like. if I caould do them at my current weight I wouldnt mind the size. But the size is whats holding me back from hiking, kayaking, bungee jumping, amusement park rides, etc. So I want to get slimmer and stronger to be able to do those things. If that comes at 300lbs then Ill be good, but I am gonna guess it wont exactly happen til about 175. So 200 is the long term goal.

    I started at 197, now weigh 167. My original goal was 150 and then I would re-evaluate. My goal now is not a weight, it is a way that I picture my body - a way my clothes fit, and a way I feel. I have finally gotten over the idea of reaching a goal weight.

    38.
    5'10.
    Highest weight - 150 Ibs.
    Start weight - 142Ibs
    Current weight - 140Ibs, having dropped down to 123, put it back on, started weights, did a cut and added some muscle after. 123 was too light for me.
    14% bodyfat which is preferably where I wish to remain. Would like to get down to 133-135, but not overly fussed about it.
    My primary goal right now is being as fit as I possibly can be, within the limitations of having COPD and improving my boxing.

    5'7.5"

    Original SW - 245 (5 1/2 years ago)
    Original goal - around 16%bf, which would have put me around 145

    I realized I'm far more mentally healthy on the higher side of 150, so I've started a slow bulk. Hope after a few bulk/cut cycles to be able to be above 150 AND around 16% body fat.

    5'4 starting weight 208
    cw: 159
    goal weight: 155

    probably should be less, but I am happy. I am 60 and my legs are not skinny so I wear size 10 and 12, ok with me, sure better than over 200 and wearing 16 which was 2 years ago
