I am only 5'9" and started at 218 when I started to diet this time. I am now 168 after a 50lb loss. Here are my before and after pics so far.

I know what you mean about avoiding the camera - I had to search through loads to find some - have a dinner dance once a year where there is no avoiding the camera so that helped! It's worth the hunt to inspire yourself - I have been shocked by some photos of myself and now I realise how far I have come!

all of you tall, transformed ladies look wonderful! I'm somewhere between 5'10" and 5'11" and was 250 lbs at my highest and around 205 when I started mfp. I'm at 173 now and trying to get to 150 ultimately I'm trying to dig up old pictures but I passionately avoided them when I was really big, so it's tough. can't wait to post a success story someday! great job everybody!

Love love love seeing so many tall beautiful ladies on here! I'm 5'11 and just about to hit my halfway point on this weightloss journey. Ill be sure to take pics and post them here later.

I find it really interesting that at least a few of the girls who have posted in this thread so far have "after" weights that are higher than my "before" weight, but they look so fabulous! The girls who have said that they're in the 180s, I would never have been able to tell. And they're not the only ones - I've seen other girls on MFP who are tall, 180-190 and they look like supermodels. Why is this? Is it "body frame"? Amount of muscle? I did NOT look as good at 175 as these beautiful ladies who are 180! Or is my scale just busted?

I agree! I'm 6' and currently weigh 190. I'm a size 18. Well, the size 16 I tried on a few weeks ago didn't fit, so I'm assuming I'm an 18. Anyway, My goal is to get to a 10/12, or what I think will be about 165ish... It's amazing how different people can look even with the same weight/height. Weight distribution I guess...

Good luck! Always looking for more friends, especially tall gals!

Hihi! I'm 5'11 (and a half).

Before at 206 lbs:


After at 180 lbs:

Wow Ur 206 pic doesn't even look like u weigh that much. Even Ur 180. Looks amazing...

Completely agree! You look like a model! So beautiful, and I can't believe you are 180 lbs...were you weighing yourself while carrying a backpack filled with bricks?!

LOL, I agree, theres no way you look 180!!!!!!!

I am 5 ft 10', 40 years old, and I've lost about 40 lbs over the last 6 1/2 months.






This one was taken about 3 weeks ago.

Thanks for posting your before and afters! I am 6 foot and am about 1/3 of the way to my 63 pound weight loss goal of 180. It is interesting to see how we all carry the weight differently! My sister, also 6 foot, is currently 175 and is trying to lose another 15. So she is encouraging me to keep going when I get to 180. I shall see when I get there!

This is such an inspiration! I am 5'11" and 29 years old. 7 years ago, when I met my husband, I was 149 and looked amazing! I started at 209 and I am now 205. I know I will look different now that I'm older and my body has changed but I really want to get down to 150! That's my ultimate goal! I just started about 2.5 weeks ago and I'm down 4 lbs now.... so.. I will have an "after" picture hopefully soon to share with everyone!!

Keep up the amazing work everyone!!!

Well, I am 5'10, and here are my before and afters... HOWEVER... these were a few years ago, and now I'm somewhere in between. Hoping to get down to close to what my "Afters" looked like again I was only about 23 in the Afters, and now I'm 28, so I don't know if I'll ever quite look like this again.

Before: 175 lbs




After: 135 lbs

Im about 2in shorter than you and our our before weight is the same and your after weight is my goal weight. regardless of the fact that this was a few yrs ago you are a huge inspiration for me. i literally want to save your pictures and look at them once a week so i can see round abouts what my body will look like if i keep this up.

First football practice today for my middle schooler. After dropping him off I turned around to leave and another parent whom I haven't seen since the end of the last school year says "Oh Hi! I didn't recognize you from behind-you look so much taller!" I am 40, granted I haven't checked, but I am pretty sure I haven't grown taller this summer! I did however, lose over 20 pounds! Funny how people see things!!!

I have before and during pictures. Still working towards the after pics.

I don't know anyone on here yet so its great to see such inspirational pics!

chollylops

chollylops

Wow - this needs a new pic!!

I am between 5'10" and 5'11" but only have a before and during picture right now-- I've lost about 62 lbs but have the goal of losing a total of 140 eventually

I can't believe I missed this thread back in June! So many great success stories/pictures.

I was actually planning on taking progress pics on Saturday so I'm saving this thread and I'll come back and post them then.

I LOVE this thread! I am 6' tall and wanna share my pictures with you... I'm not done with my journey but these show most of my progress. The first picture is my dad & I in fall of 2006, when I weighed 292 and hadn't begun my weight loss yet. The second picture is my dad & I on the day I got my degree (May 2011) and weighed about 187. I lost 105 pounds the slow/steady way over 5 years and am incredibly proud of myself!! Since then, I have lost another 7 pounds

amflautist

Thank you to everyone for those pictures. I see that I need to take some too, to contribute here. It's both inspiring and helpful to see what your georgeous tall frames can look like.
