    YAY!!! I'm not skinny either! And being Asian and all its a little hard when you feel as if you're constantly being compared with girls the size of chopsticks! I only need to lose about 15-20lbs to be where I wanna be.

    I'm so glad I found this thread! WE CAN DO IT LADIES!! :)

    Feel free to add me as a friend! I'd love to have "not-that-heavy girls on my side! <3

    M'kay... my exercise goals are going to seem infinitismal to you guys. Normally I do try a lot more, but I'm limited by a sprained ankle for the next month or so. I'll slowly try more and more but I think I can't be too careful. =)

    Want to make a big shout out to all those lovely 5'4" ladies out there!!!!

    I am currently 123 and 5'4", looking to get down to around 112 lbs. I got there after losing the Freshman 15 (and then ab 30 more...) and gained some back last year.

    Unhappy that I gained weight from out of control binges... don't think I have BED but maybe a mild form of it... anyone else going through the same??

    I would love to join this group if I could! It's nice to see a group of girls with a lot of the same struggles in common!

    A little about me: My name is Jessica, and I am a mom to five kids. Three are mine biologically, and two are my step children through marriage. They range in age from 15 months up to 11 years. I started MFP last January, so I am coming up on one year here. In that time I have lost 73 pounds. My SW was 211, and my CW is about 138. (though I am actually up a few pounds as of my post Thanksgiving weigh in, I have not updated my ticker-grrr). My original GW was 140, and I am 5'7". I am happy to have reached, and passed that goal, but I don't think I am quite where I wanted to be, so I am contemplating making a new goal of 130, though I fear losing muscle mass if I try for that. But my thighs and legs really are still so thick, even though my upper body is thin.

    I am hoping that joining this group will help to keep me accountable. I have been maintaining for a couple months now, and I am finding myself in cycles of self sabotage that really affect my mood and workout ethic. Not having clearly defined goals is making it easy for me to not be dedicated. Especially since I passed my goal. And lest we fool ourselves, maintenance is just as hard (if not harder) than weight loss.

    I'm still in this category...5'7 and 142lbs. I would love to reach 125. However, I really want to have a toned and fit body so I know that the scale may read a little heavier in the end.

    Having a smaller amount of weight to lose, just seems to take so long...as wierd as that sounds!

    I really need to up my fitness, I think that will make the difference.

    I am 5'7" and started before I even joined MFP I knew I wasn't happy with myself and decided to make a change. I started out at 136lbs and am now completely happy I weigh 119-121 and am still in the healthy BMI range; also currently mainting this weight very successfully. I started early october all due to a high fiber diet due to digestive issues! :) I am happy to find there are other people like me and I just get called "crazy" all the time, good to know I'm sane.

    I'm definitely in on this category!

    I started at 147 b/c in my mind, 150 was NOT gonna happen. I couldn't let it. So here I am, 138.8 right now and my goal weight is 120. I'd honestly settle for 125!

    Early in 2008, I weighed maybe 115 at MOST and pretty much ballooned to 147 within 2 years. Jumped up 3 pant sizes. I was so disgusted with myself.
