4'10" , and 165 pounds, anybody else?

Kupla71

5’1” and 167lbs here. Goal weight 135lbs. My highest weight was 176lbs a few years ago. I lost 15 pounds by measuring my rice and pasta portions to half a cup. That’s it. Since then instead of losing more my weight is creeping up again. So I’ve started measuring again and being more careful with how many calories I’m consuming. I’m going to weigh myself in a week or two and track my progress. Good luck ladies! Feel free to add me! I’m very inspired by some of your success stories.

I'm 4'9 and was 150lbs in January, now I'm at 136lbs by just managing my portions and working out regularly. I still have a ways to go (~15-25 lbs) but it's totally possible. The only advice I can give is don't lose hope, don't weigh yourself too often, stick to a schedule, and stick to your goals.

I'm looking for a group of girls with similar starting points that want to help each other lose weight and motivate each other. This quarantine has resulted in me gaining even more weight so I can't do it anymore. Time to lose it all so who's with me?

Hi, I am 4'11'' and started at 140 last year. I lost the first 15 pounds earlier last year and gained about 5 pounds by the end of it and maintained it for about 6 months up until last month. Decided to lose the last 15-20 pounds (target weight is 105 pounds) by the end of this year. Started logging food from 17th of April and kick started my diet from 24th of April after my kitten died of FIP. Since then, I lost a little more than 9 pounds in 6+ weeks and going pretty strong.

Hope to help each other in the journey. Also, kudos for taking your first step, you are already half way there love.

I'm similar, im 4"10 and about 160. I started my journey at 168 which was my heaviest, i got down to 148 but have now crept back to 160 mostly due to stress eating since I've been at home. My current goal is to get back to 148 - I've done it once so I must be able to do it again!

Hi, I'm 5'4", age 46, and weigh 168lbs, which seems to toggle around 170lbs depending on the time of day. Not going to lie; I went on a bit of a stress bender for the first 1.5 months of this whole "thing" (e.g. nightly wine, booze, snacks, weed). Now I'm trying to correct course and make better choices. I'm trying not to get hung up on a weight#, but it is a good indicator of progress/regression. The warmer weather definitely makes it easier to stay positive and look forward to exercise.

Triggers: Night time when the kids go to bed. I have been seeing that as a break and my time to have a little pity party. So, I have (a) started running and doing weight/floor exercises daily; (b) doing it after 4pm. That has been key for me. That way, the rush of exercise stays with me in the evening and I'm less likely to make bad food/drink choices after 8:30pm. The scale hasn't budged, but I think I'm on the right track! It's very helpful to read about your experiences and your journeys!

I’m 4ft 10 age 55. Started Jan 2019 at 159 lb, lost 29lb and got my prediabetic blood sugars back in the healthy range. Been maintaining at 129-131lb since sept 2019. Was planning to lose another 12-15 lb this spring but then covid happened. I lost 5lb at the start of lockdown through anxiety but have put it back on again from comfort eating, that’s okay for now but don't want to continue gaining. I’m due back to work in just over a week which I’m anxious about, so I’m trying to prioritise good nutrition.

Awesome I'll add you guys to the group too

I am 5'0" and just hit 169.9 after being home for 11 weeks thanks to COVID-19 (not that I was thin before), but I added 10 pounds during this social distancing period. I love walking and I enjoy Tai chi, but I have to get a handle on my eating!
