    Hey! I'm 5'5 :) Nice to see a thread for the 'in-betweeners'! Lol :o)

    MFP SW: 87.5kg (192lb)
    CW: 73.4kg (161lb)
    GW: 65kg (143lb)

    Here is a link to a blog post I wrote when I got halfway to my goal: http://www.myfitnesspal.com/blog/kiwi_dee/view/halfway-105498

    It was also the day before I realised I was preggy with number 4, so I'm not currently on the weight-loss wagon. Trying to maintain and gain 'reasonable' amounts.

    Sorry to double post but when I was putting those photo's together I noticed this one of my face when I was heavier. So strange to see such a difference especially when there's some days that I feel like I haven't progressed much at all no matter what the scale says.

    What a difference! Great job!

    It's refreshing to see people with similar stats to mine!! I'm 5"4 and 3/4ths, so I round up to 5"5. haha.

    I am posting a picture of me at my highest weight of 194 like 5 years ago and the second one was taken August 3rd! Since then I have lost 3lbs. So I'm about 140 now!

    HW- 194
    SW - 168.7
    Official MFP SW - 163
    CW 141.4
    GW - 139 by August 18th!

    I consider myself bigger boned. I have huge hips and thighs thanks to both sides of my family!
    I am wearing size 11 pants down to my very first size 6 pair of jeans I bought the other day! How exciting! It depends on the brand though as far as what I fit into!

    My ultimate goal is around 135 and then just toning up!

    Yay us!!

    I'm 5"5' and started on this quest for health the last week of December (2010) at 200 lbs. My last weigh-in was at 154.9 lbs :) I am eating what I want (in moderation of course, lol) and stay within my MFP calories most days. I eat back my workout calories and run/walk 3-4 times a week. I still have a little ways to go and need to start hitting the weights to tone up, but I am very happy with my success thus far :)

    Good luck on your goals, don't quit!

    Hi Friends! I'm a little over 5'5 (5'5.5 and pretending to be 5'6!)

    SW - 155
    CW - 139
    GW - 134

    You see pictures in my profile :)

    Also, body fat has become my main focus. I first measured it about 4 or 5 weeks into MFP and started at 26.6% and am now around 22%

    Thanks for inspiring me to get back into losing weight!
    I had lost 11 pounds since starting MFP in the spring, but then summer came and...well, the diet went out the window and I gained back 5 of those pounds. :embarassed:
    Starting today I'm back to counting calories and exercising. I swear!
    Height: 5'5''
    Shape: Medium frame, bottom-heavy (hips & thighs, baby!)
    Highest Weight: 164lbs
    Current Weight: 157lbs
    Goal Weight: 140lbs
    If you click on my profile pictures you can see my BEFORE bikini shots (eek!). I'll update with some AFTER shots soon enough!
    Great job to everyone who's lost, and a big good luck to those who've just started. You can do it!
