    I am 6'0. 36 years old. Hit 5'10 at 12 years old. Since i can remember buying clothes it started out at a junior 15/17 and skyrocketed from there. starting this process i wore a 24/26 at 315 now I'm at 275 and wear and 18/20 (6 feet tall) my goal weight (which is still above what the charts tell me it should be) is 185 I in no way want to be a rail, but healthy, curvy and proud to be tall and fit. can't wait to see what i look like there - think i will look unstoppable LOL :)
  • I am 5'9" - currently 150lbs. Heaviest at 172, lightest at 118 (when I was pregnant of all things...eek!). My goal weight is somewhere around 137-140 and a size 6. I'm a size 8 right now with Old Navy Flirt jeans - could squeeze into a size 6, but it wouldn't be flattering!

    I am 5'9 and weigh 224, size 18. My heaviest was 236 (in December 2010) and I was in denial of being a size 20. I have an athletic build, so when I weigh 185, I actually look really good and have no back fat and just a small belly. The last time I weighed 185 was in 2006. I was seeing a trainer 3x a week so I was solid. At 185, I am in a size 14 and am comfortable at that weight. BUT...my ultimate goal would be anywhere from 165 to 175, size 12 or 14. I can't imagine being 150 pounds and 5 feet 9 inches tall!! I looked grossly skinny at that weight...you know, back in the 90's! Anyway, everyone has such a unique body type. I just want to feel fit and look great so anything under 200 lbs and size 16 or below works for me!!!:wink:

    I'm 5'9" and I weigh 165.5 and I wear an 8 or a 10 depending on the brand. I weighed 230 after I had my son but stayed at 199 a year after having him. I want to get down to 155, that's a good size for me!

    I am 5'9 and currently weigh 323. My heaviest was 348. I wear a size 28 jeans. Not proud to acknowledge it but it is who I am and I am working hard to get to a healthy weight of 160. Have a long road ahead of me but with MFP, I know I can do this .

    I'm 5'8 and starting weight was 206. My current goal is 165. That's what I was when I got married (a nice size 10/12). I thought I looked super cute, and healthy. I'm currently at 195 and making progress. Good luck!

    Height: 5'8"
    Current Weight: 118-122lbs
    Heaviest: 175lbs
    Goal: 115-120lbs
    Current Jean Size: 1 or 3 (depending on brand)/ Dress size 0 or 00

    For exercise I do A LOT of cross-fit/ rock climbing/ and running. I have recently started gaining a lot of lean muscle from weight lifting (lots of reps with lighter weights) and doing parkour/ cross-fit.

    I am 5'9 3/4, not quite 5'10 and weigh currently 180
    135 was my lowest weight achieved 6 yrs ago. I want to get back to that.
    185 was my heaviest non-pregnant weight.

    Pilates is great to help with the mid-section. :happy:
  • I'm 5'10ish 177.0lbs and i wanna be 155lbs :) i love being curvey but I wanna lose my fat thighs hahah :):heart:
  • I am 5'9" and my top weight was 180 (last year). I am currently 163 (started 2011 at about 170) and wearing a US juniors 11/12. The lowest I've been was about 145 lbs in a juniors 7/8 (just barely a 5/6). I wasn't really thrilled with my body back then though, and I'd love to get around 135-140. I'd be happy to wear a 7/8 again, but a 5/6 would be the bomb dot com. I don't know though...I was a very straight box-shaped girl when I was 145 lbs and I like the hourglass curves I have now, so I hope those stick around.

    Hello .. I am 5'8" and I currently weigh 165. My goal is to weigh 150, I have gotten as low as 156 (last summer when I was training for a 5K) but gained 10lbs over the winter.
  • I'm 5'8 and I weigh 197.5. depending on the brand I wear a 10 or 12. Levi's sz 10 usually. I have a bubble butt though so maybe ppl at same H/W wear a smaller sz?
  • I'm 5'9"- current weight is 177- highest weight was 320- goal weight is 130 to 150- pants size varies a lot by brand, but generally 10 or 12.

    I am 5'7-almost 5'8' and weigh 160. My goal weight is 130-its always been my optimum weight. I started at 171 but that was after losing 15 pounds imediately following delivery of my baby. Breast feeding is actually keeping weight on. I currently wear a size 12-but am working to get into a size 8, and then a size 6 once I stop breastfeeding
  • 5'11 CW - 168 Size 12 UK (don't know what size that is in the states) GW - 147 but now im thinking 140 but ill figure out whether I should lose any more once I get to 147lbs

    I'm right about the same as you. I'm 5'8'' 175 and would like to be 150-155 and toned.
  • 5'9 1/2 and I currently weigh 165lbs wearing a 12/13. I want to weigh 130lbs like I did a few years ago. I wore a size 7. I still have my shorts and pants...I want to wear them again so badly.
