5'8" Ladies Success Stories?

KatyAverill

I'm 24 years old and 5'8" with a highest weight of 215, current weight of 188, and goal of 140ish.
If you have before and afters, please post them here-I could use some extra motivation

I was 343lb, I'm now 160lb. Having trouble with photos at the moment but my profile picture is a before and now.

seltzermint555

I am 5'8".

Just to give you some frame of reference...at age 16 I weighed about 225 lb.
By age 32, I weighed 307 lb.

Now I am 37 and weigh 186 and still losing, I plan to get to 170 and then decide if I'd like to lose more or not.

Right now I wear between L/XL misses tops and 12-14 pants. At my heaviest I was in a 3X and 22 pant.

I'm 5'9" I don't really have a before, but I went from 215 to 170. I'm currently on a bulk trying to gain some muscle before I get the last few pounds of fat off. My profile is an "after"

slynnalex

No pics, but have had success followed by regain of 10lbs after I lost my job. :-( I'm 5'9" and am at 172. My lowest weight was 160 and I was SO happy. I had an initial goal of 150, but would be fine w/ maintaining btw 160 -165; depending on the time of the month. Now that spring is officially here I'm considering the C25K program. Any encouragement or advice is welcome!

lysslax

I'm 5' 8'' my starting weight was 206 and I'm currently about 167. Goal weight is 165 but these last 2 lbs seem to never want to leave....I'm mostly concerned about toning up at this point.....I can't seem to get the image to show I tried it 35 times......Profile picture is current

moondazed

You all look amazing! Once I start seeing better progress I'll definitely share some of mine

Allyvegan

I've posted some pics in the other 5'8" threads, but will pick some different ones! I've reached below my goal weight in weight loss, and am now working on finding my maintenance cals, and then increasing to gain muscle.

Highest adult weight, around 170


Middle ground, 150-160


Closest pic I could find before most recent weight loss, around 140


Pretty recent pic, around 113


eta: not the best face comparison as I have makeup on in all pics except most recent (workout face)!

:blushing: Thanks!

I just cut 250 calories from my TDEE and did lots of walking/hiking. I ate regular food, watched portion sizes, and took it slow. It was pretty simple.

KatyAverill

I was 343lb, I'm now 160lb. Having trouble with photos at the moment but my profile picture is a before and now.

That is an incredible transformation! You look so good!

The C25K program is really great-I've used it before and I just restarted it after a running hiatus. I would definitely recommend it!
