    I checked out your progress on your profile and holy hot mama! You look amazing!

    Thank you! I've been doing c25k for 6 weeks and did 2 rounds of the 30day shred. I'm still doing level 1 and 2 of 30ds switching between levels day by day. Also when I started here I was up to 160 squats and 320 crunches a day as well as some cardio to go with.

    I'm 5'5" and I started my journey 12 days ago at 187.2 lbs. My highest weight ever was 205 lbs and although I lost a ***** before starting MFP, I was beginning to gain some back. That's when I found MFP and I haven't looked back. My journey has just begun but I'm already down to 180.4 lbs - a 6.8 lb difference! I am happier and healthier than I have ever been and cannot wait for my own 'before and after' to reveal. :P

    This thread makes me so happy to view. I thank you all for posting here. You're such wonderful inspirations. Best wishes! <3

    Isn't it amazing what a difference big-boned / small-bones makes? I'm just under 5'5", and even at only 120lbs I have a belly. Some people at the same height and 150lbs have a lovely flat tum! I'm here to tone up, and turn some of the wobbly bits to muscle. I'm in week 2 of Ripped in 30, and took some pics before, so will post pics once i'm done. I want a 6 packs and some lovely defined shoulders!!! And a waist if i'm really lucky ;)

    It is amazing! I'm 5'5", size 10, 183.4lbs, and my biggest weight was 252.8lbs and VERY tight 18s. Oh and I have 25% body fat. I'm very muscular and I'm big boned. Lol.

    Oh and my goal weight is 160ish or 18% body fat.
  • Bump! :)

    I am 5'5" and I don't have any pictures right now to show, but I will at least tell you some stats and sizes.

    HW: 191 (size 20 loose, size 18 tight...I wore the 18 for vanity purposes and looked like crap!)
    SW with MFP: 151 (size 12 loose, size 10 can fit depending on the brand)
    CW: 140ish...been 2 weeks since I last weighed in (size 8 loose, some size 6 fits great too!)
    GW: 115ish, about size 2

    Before MFP, I started at 191. I was able to get down to 150 pounds doing Beachbody's Power 90 program and then Turbo Jam. I was about a size 8 then. After that I did P90X and got down to 130 pounds and size 6. I got to 126 at my lowest, but that was only because I was sick...so my lowest healthy weight was 128. (I had the flu that year, it was awful!) I then gained weight because I was ending a relationship and it went kinda bad. No...really bad. So I stopped exercising as usual and eating right and got back up to around 150 pounds. I yo-yo'd for about 3 years because I didn't have the motivation and drive to do what I needed to do. So last year I joined MFP. I was still yo-yo'ing though. I got married this year on July 10. My dress was size 8, and at Christmas I size 10. So, weirdly enough, I had to GAIN a little to fit into my dress. Go figure. Problem is, I gained too much, lol. The dress fit, but was gosh durn tight! Then I gained no less than 10 pounds on my honeymoon. I got back on track 3 weeks ago. I lost 3 pounds the first week, but decided to just weigh-in once a month after that. So I think I weigh around 140 now? But my goal is to get down to a size 2, around 17% body fat maintained and 12% every now and then for figure competitions. From my calculations, I will be around 115 pounds when I get to my goal.

    I plan on posting pictures when I reach my goal, but not before. Sorry everyone! I know that the in-between progress pictures are helpful, and I do take them, but I don't want to post anything until I get the final outcome so everyone can see what I did. I am picking my start date as August 1 this year and aiming for Christmas to reach goal.

    Yes it is amazing! I'm currently 185.8 in size 12's my body fat % is 26.3 and I am 5'5 exactly.... My highest weight was 230 and I would squeeze myself into 16s because I refused to go up higher.... My goal is also 160 and hopefully I can fit into a size 8 or 10 when I get there :)

    @jozzie, we're the same stats, same goal weight of 160. I haven had my first weigh in, it is on Tuesday. Stats in sig line below.
  • Wow, let's here it for the 5'5 girls! :)

    I only joined 2 weeks ago so I have no progress pics yet but here are my stats so far:

    SW: 168
    CW: 165
    Mini Goal: 154
    GW: 140 (I think)

    Well done everyone!

    anybody on here a big boned 5'5 gal? I'm 5'5 but I don't know if I'd be able to get below 160.... That's my goal for now and then I will reassess once I get to the 160s.... My first goal had been 145-155 but then I up'ed it to 160... what do you ladies think?

    I am, and I'm shooting for the same initial goal of 160 even though I have much further to go. The smallest I've been as an adult was when i lost down to 157 from 194 around the age of 22, and I could wear any sz 10's and a few sz 8's. I have a large frame that is fairly muscular, and I'm working out more consistently than in previous weight loss attempts. I'm curious how my body shape will differ this time around. I would love to get down to 130 (or less), but the last time I weighed that I think I was in grade school. So basically, my plan is to reevaluate when I get to 160. Good luck to you! :)

    I Am... 5'5" and I have a 131lb lean mass so I'm thinking I may get to about 155..(for me thats about 18% body fat or lower).

    SW with MFP: 180

    Currently in a size 6 pants and small top so I'm not sure I want ot get much smaller, I'm probably going to start hitting more weights for toneing and cutting.

    You sound just like me :) When I got down to 180 at 5'5 I was a 8 and weird people did not even recognize me! I set my goal at 160 but am wondering what I will look like...but I see so many people at 160 that are considered chubby....Well I guess we will see. Good luck to you...my 5'5 sister

    Howdy !

    I am 5"5 and 1/4. When I was pregnant I was 175lbs at 37 weeks, gave birth at 38+3. Three weeks later I was 161lbs, and then 3 months later 154lbs. I was in the overweight category and BMI was 25.3, which I did not like one bit. I didn't intentionally lose the weight, it came off through breastfeeding I guess.

    SW: 154lbs (Before I found MFP)
    CW: 137lbs
    GW: 133lbs.

    I may go down to 126, but I will see when I have lost these 4lbs.

    I haven't taken any pictures for a month and a half. I will post once I do. I have a medium frame, small waist and big butt and thighs. I hate being lopsided! My top half is much smaller than my bottom, although it's getting better.

    SW: 211, size 20 jeans
    CW: 180, size 14 jeans
    GW: 135, not sure on size
