6 foot ladies

I am 6' tall and when I was 25 I got down to 170 and was in a size 14. I have gain alot since then but my goal is 200 pounds. It still is above my so called healthy wieght but I felt I was to skinny and people also commented that I looked to skinny at 170. You need to do what makes you feel good.

I'm 6'0" and I am currently 201 pounds and in a size 16UK (14US). My current goal is 170, but I'd be happy to be 160. The smallest I've been is 145 and a size 6-7.

I am 5'10" - so a bit shorter than you - but I have a large bone structure and consider myself quite fit, but not super athletic. My goal weight was 180 and I am a bit beyond that now - 176 - and I definitely don't want to get any smaller. I have curves where I want them and not where I don't, and my ribs poke out. I'm a Small on top, a 10 on bottom, and wear dresses in either a 6 or 8.

If you are already in a 14, I can't imagine you shedding another 50 pounds - you would most likely end up as a 4 or 6, which is TINY for a tall woman.

Mostly, though, just focus on being healthy. When you reach a point where you feel fit and healthy and are comfortable in your skin, then stop. Don't worry about whether you meet a standard or not.

Hey there,

I am 5'11 and currently 247.5 lbs, size 14. I am hoping to get down to a size 8, possibly 6, and have my weight anywhere between 160-180. When I was in high school, I played lacrosse and soccer but never ate very healthy. I was a size 10 and around 170lbs then but still had a lot of belly fat. Good luck to everyone! I guess we will just have to see how realistic our goals are when we slim down more!

This is so wierd! I am 6ft, and at 190, I was busting out of my size 16s! So funny how we're built so differently! I'm down only 2lbs, but have lost 7" overall! I put on a dress yesterday that I wore for our anniversary, on August 5th, and it was much more comfortable this time!

My goal is about 165. We'll see when I get there. I'd like to be in a size 10.

Reading these comments is helping me realize where I need to set my goals, so thanks! I am 5'11, and it has been a little difficult to find others my height.

Why don't you cross that bridge when you get there, stop counting your chickens before they hatch, etc........

You know you need to lose weight(or I hope you do).

When you get to around 180, check yourself out and see.

Best of luck to you.

:flowerforyou: I am 5'10 and my goal is 170lbs at this point, but I will reevaluate when I reach that goal. I have weighed as little as 135lbs at this height, but looked maybe too thin. I am really happy with the way I look when I weigh around 160, so that might end up being my goal in the end! Good luck everyone!!

I'm 5'10" and around 175lbs currently. I'm down from around 230 at the highest in my life.

I'm around a size 14 (US) currently. I really would like to get down to 155-160lbs at some point in my life (hopefully soon). My goal on MFP is 155 and I hope to make it, but these last pounds I'm finding pretty hard to lose.

I am 5'10" tall and am 182 lbs down from 217 a year ago. I have a medium/large build and am very muscular and athletically built. It's so hard because I always see myself next to these petite, fit 5'4" women at the gym and I look gigantic- but I am in a size 10 and sometimes a 12 (US)- and I know that's not huge-

Ultimately, I'd like to get down to 143 lbs. That is small for me- i was there about 4 years ago and I absolutely LOVED it- i was a size 6 (and sometimes even a 4). Not sure if I'll get there now that I'm 41, but damn I'm working hard at it!!!

I'm just shy of 6 feet and my goal is 165, which many moons ago was my comfortable bathing suit weight. But my real goal is to wear size 10 again. I'm on the very snug side of 14 right now! I wouldn't get too hung up on the weight ranges that are recommended. Especially if you were blessed with a glorious athletic build and muscles! Head in the direction they recommend and you'll know when you're at the weight your body is supposed to be--whether it matches the expert's range or not.

Glad to see so many tall, beautiful people on here!

Not that its ever easy..... lol... I try to settle myself on the feel of my clothes. if they are tight, then i need to loose... Yes I love the size 12 but i can't wait to see if i could bring it down to a 10.. If possible... I definitely want to try that 30day shred everyone is raving about... I think that i could totally use it.... Happy to be a TALL GIRL... jst wished that they made clothes for us that make us look as sexy as the 5,7,9 bunch... lmao...
