I'm 6'1" and 198 (down from 205 before I started exercising and watching what I ate. I'm looking to get down to 185, and might go for 180 once I reach the main goal.

I am 5'10...as I said. I am 145 lbs and a size 9 pants! Everyone here is like "I am size 6...size 8" etc. and they are heavier than me and save height or shorter. I totally don't get it. Tres sad.

I am 5'9 and started at 165. I'm hoping to be down to 140ish by June before our Caribbean cruise!

Anyone want to help me? So far, in 18 days, I've lost 8 pounds!

I'm 5'8.5". I am currently 187 and a size 12 in my Gap jeans. I was 135 during my freshman year of college and it was a great weight for me, so my goal is there or slightly lower. I have a small frame, though, so I can pull off a lower weight than others my height might be able to. I was a 4/6 at that weight, and I'd like to be a solid 4.

I'm 5'8" and currently weigh 138lbs, my waist is 27" so I wear either a 2 or 4 in jeans. I used to weigh about 15 pounds less than I do now, but that was before I started lifting weights. I'm at 10.8% body fat right now and am training to compete in my first fitness competition. So even though we are tall, we have advantages of being able to weight more and hide our weight. With the clean eating (lean proteins, veggies, good fats, etc) and a consistent exercise routine with weight training not only will you lose fat, but will gain a leaner physique. It's exciting at first because you lose weight, but then it starts coming on again only this time it's muscle. So girl you got this, you can get to your desired weight with discipline and commitment!

I am 5'10. My current weight is 197 and my goal weight is 160. I currently wear a size 10-12 in jeans. I want to get back to a true size 8. The 8 that doesn't require 2% spandex. lol

I'm 5'8.5", and currently I weigh 183. Highest weight, 187, just around Christmas time. My lowest weight ever was 118, but I know it's completely unrealistic (and UNHEALTHY!) to get back down to that weight. My goal weight is to be in the 130 - 142 range, with my red flag weight being 155.

I'm don't bother with clothing sizes because they are wacked out and vary SO much from store to store. I sew my own clothes a lot of the time, and did you know that back in the 60's (I use a lot of vintage patterns), a size "10" was someone with a 31 1/2" bust and a 24" waist?!?! Pffffft. In today's day and age, that person is a size "6". Sizes in today's society have been modified anyways to accomodate our vanity, so I don't base anything on them. As long as it fits, you feel great in it and you're at a healthy weight, who cares what a clothing tag says!

hey we are basically the same height and weight but im 182lbs wanna get to 150lbs GOAL wooh 118 I know u were really skinney...Yeah so true who cares what a tag says its how u feel inside about ur self!!

Don;t worry!! pants size has a lot ot do with body shape

When I was 135 I was maaaaybe a six. maybe. At 145 I was an 8- 10. I had a small waist and flat tummy but big hips, and you need a bigger pant size to go on bigger hips

Hi there. I'm 175cm (5"9) and currently 81kgs (179 pounds). when you're tall, you can put on weight (say 5 to 10 kgs) without anyone really noticing it ('cause it's spread out over the whole of the body). but i always know - my closes don't hang right.....and at the moment, they're just plain tight.

My goal weight 63kgs (about 140 pounds) - that will have me in size 10 jeans (US size 8).
