I'm just over 5'9" and currently weigh 173 pounds. I'd like to be back around 150, preferably at 145. It depends on my body shape and muscle mass really. I currently wear a size 12/14 jeans, but would like to get back to size 8-10. Good luck!

I'm 5'8 and 190...would like to be at 170.
Pants size ranges between 14-16, although right now 16s are WAY loose...YAY!

i'm 5'9 an at 170. My goal weight 46lbs ago was 160, but I might shoot for a little lower depending on how it all looks on me I'm currently wearing an 11 or a 12-hoping for an 8 or 10.

As for love handles-oblique crunches are super effective, but the thing i've found most effective (if you do it consistently) is standing straight up with a weight in each hand-you can use no weight or as high a weight as you want. lean over to one side, keeping the weight by your leg to about mid-thigh and pause. come back up and do the other side. I usually try 20 on each side when i'm really trying to tackle the love handles. they really really work if you don't them every day or every other day and they are super easy.

Hello Tall Friends :flowerforyou:

I'm 6 ft tall. I started at 205 lbs. Right now I weight 167 lbs. And I wear a size 8

My initial goal was a 165 lbs, but I'm thinking I might want to get to 155 to 160 lbs. We'll see. I luving all the change

I'm 5'9 and I currently weight 199 and a size 14. I'm trying to get to 165. That puts me in the top of the "healthy range" which will get me into a size 10, I'm guessing, which is really the size I want to be. Any thinner and my face looks gaunt to me.

I'm 5'9 & currently at 198lbs...my goal weight is 139:) I started MFP a few days ago at 199 but my heaviest was 214ish. I wear a size 16/18 in jeans....I don't know what I was at my lowest weight but I wore a size 7 (Hollister) jeans 2 years ago:'( ...that's my goal to reach a size 7 again! lol

I'm 5' 11" and weigh 206#. That's my heaviest ever - even when pregnant! I wear a size 14 now. I want to be in an 8. I've been down to 140 before, but I felt the healthiest at 155. That's my goal now!

Hi, Wow, I'm surprised that there are so many tall ladies on here... I'm so used to being the tallest gal in the room!
I'm 5'8 and 149lbs, my heaviest ever was 169lbs but that was a few years ago when I was leading an unhealthy lifestyle in London... I joined this site a few weeks ago at 157lbs and I want to get to 143 or 145lb ( so hard to write this as I'm used to kg's, I'm aiming for 65 or 66kg). I wear a size UK/ NZ 12 and I'm aiming for a small 12 or big 10.
Good luck everyone!

Hooray for the tall girls!

I'm 5'10, and currently weigh around 143. I'd like to be at around 135, but really it's just a vanity thing now. I'm loving where I am. Tried on an Australian size 9 pair of jeans today and rocked it. That's a size 5 for all you Americans.

I am 5'8 and currently 139- hoping to get down to 120-125! I'll stop when I can get back into my jeans!! :laugh:

I am 5'10.5", currently weigh 180lbs, and a size 12. My heaviest was 195lbs and a size 14. Would like to get down to 170-165lbs!!!

beccafertig

5'10", current weight 298lbs. My current pants size is 22. My goal is to get down to 140, and whatever pants size that comes along with that is just fine with me :-) Being tall AND heavy stinks...

JustJessie

I am 5'8 1/2 and weigh 188.5 (as of this morning ) I want to lose 20 pds by June 15 and then ideally get 155pds. I just got strict again with my diet so I am eating about 1200cal/day. My heaviest was 228pds about 1 1/2 yrs ago. Right now I go back and forth between a size 10 and a size 12 pants. I want to rock a cute swimsuit this summer when I go to Cancun in June!

I am 5 foot 8 and weigh 231. I feel most comfortable at 164-170 range. My jean size is 16.

crnorwood

I'm 5'8, weight is 160. Pants size in Jeans is a 29 or dress pants is a 8/10. My goal is 145. Smallest I've been was 125...too skinny for my frame.

erinnmcpherson

I'm 5'11 and started at 155/160 5 weeks ago. I'm 148 now with a goal of 135ish. Really, the goal is to tone and flatten my stomach and tone my thighs (inner and outer) and my butt... I wear a size 9 (but was literally busting out of them before I started MFP) and I'm satisfied with a 9, esp. since I don't have muffin top anymore lol. I want to be able to wear a bathing suit without worrying about how I look every few seconds, and I want to be able to wear my summer clothes and dresses for work without wearing my tummy sucker/thigh slimmer.
