5'9 or taller women

MsSheri82

Im 5'9 and Im currently 347lbs. Im confused about what I would be comfortbale at. When I tell people how much I weigh noone believes me. They tell me I dont look like I weight that much. I know its because of my height. So I honestly think that considering that Im natually big-boned and its not in my genes to be extremely slender I would be happy at around 210-220.

I am 5'11'' and currently weigh 185. My heaviest has been 210 (2005) and my lowest has been 167 (2012). I have a hard time during my busy months at work and stress eat so I gained back most of what I lost.

My fall/winter clothes are all 6s and 8s so I have no choice but to lose weight soon! I am doing the 30DS and going to the gym 5-6 times a week. Also, anyone in the DC area should try Kazaxe! It is an AMAZING workout that I am trying twice a week.

My biggest fear is that I will lose the weight and gain it all back in the Spring. HELP!!

Im 6ft, my goal weight is 165 and my current weight is 185. If I can get to 160 then that'll be great.

I'm 6'. My current goal weight is just 199. I would love to be under 200 again. But after that, I'm shooting for 180.

I am 5"9 and am aiming for 165 pounds. I was 380 pounds initially and have a significant amount of excess skin so I think thats the lowest I need to go to when I take the skin into consideration.

I'm right above 5'9" and my goal weight is somewhere around 128-132 lbs.

I'm 5' 9.5 and 144lb, 23% bf. Most of that fat sits between my waist and thighs so my bottom half is bigger than my top. I think the only way to reduce that jiggle is to cut body fat so I'm aiming for 20% and then I'd like to build muscle...so I'm not sure we're I will end up but thinking around 140 lb.

I was hoping to get to 165 ish. Got there and didn't like the way I look at all. I'm very comfortable at 175 - 180 (I'm curvy and muscular). Edited to add: I'm 5'11.

OK I'm not 5'9" but over 5'8", so almost there. Somebody before mentioned the DEXA scan, I say have one! I used to stress so much because my mom who is 5'9" was always around 120 lbs, and I was 150 by high school. I had a scan a few years back and my lean body mass came back at 146 lbs. When I look at pics from hs (when I thought I was so fat) I am amazed at how thin I actually looked. I was told 165-175 was ideal for me. I have a way to go but much less than I originally thought. It makes it feel doable. Weight varies so much individually.

I'm 6 ft and 145 lbs, My goal weight is 120-130lbs. Friend me!

I am almost 5 ft 11 and I just got down from 180 to 160. I actually still see a lot of areas for improvement and I feel I could get down to the 145 pounds I was in high school and still be really healthy and look healthy. However, I think having more muscle would definitely improve how my body looks even at a higher weight.

I'm, about, five nine and would like to get down to 170 pounds...I have been there before and it is a good weight for me...LONG WAY to go until I reach goal!!! hahaha

I am 5'10.5" with a goal wt of 164. Started at 272 and now at 214. Anything below 200 will be less than anytime that I've been an adult so I will be happy! I carry it all around my middle, my legs are already much thinner.

dezb64

I'm 5'9 and currently am weigh 172 lbs. My original goal was 170 but I can see I need to shoot for 150.

Rockstar_JILL

I am 5'9" and have gone from a size 22W to a size 10.....I went from a weight of 259.1 to a weight of 170ish....I am happing where I am now. I am not sure where I should be on the "scales"..I am just happy with my size 10. That is all I can say. I am a big frame too, so I WILL weigh more. I am good.

I'm 5'9". My initial goal weight was 152, but I got there and still wasn't happy with how I looked. I ended up at 135 and have weighed +/- five pounds of that weight for almost two years now.

I'm 5'11, 34 years old, no kids, and my goal weight is 147. I was there last summer, gained a few back and now within 2 lbs of that goal again. I'm happy with a range of 147-152, but feel best on the low end.

When I started in 2010, I was 190+ (not sure of the actually number, never weighed myself), and pushing a size 16, and buying XL tops. I never though I could be thin. I thought I'd be fine at 170. When I got there I wasn't happy and kept going, next goal 157. Got to 157, wasn't happy. Next goal 145, see a trend? When I got to my low weight of 143 a few friends said I had lost too much, I was wearing size 4 jeans and I think they may have been right. At a range of 152-147 I'm a size 6 jeans, S/M tops. Now, I hope to stay around this weight for the rest of my life, but it isn't easy. I can maintain (with pretty bad habits) around 160-165, but I'm not satified with my body at that weight.

In high school (15ish years ago!) I was steadily 150 and a size 12. I'm a shade over 5'9".

My freshmen year of college I DROPPED the freshman 15 and was down around 135. I looked and felt great, and was a size 10. I was very athletic looking in a muscular sense.

Back then, I started feeling "big" around 160, so I think a goal of 140-145 would work for my ruler shaped body and monster thighs. But I know everyone is different. It's really about how you feel once you get there!

2stepscloser

I'm 6ft and my current goal weight is around 200. Ideally, I'd like to be about 180 (25% body fat) but I'm realistic and may need to reassess. I haven't weighed 180 since like 9th grade. Lol

Change4mygirls

Hi! My goal weight is 150. I am currently 170 and that's just not thin enough for me. I want to be bikini ready and I wont unless I am fit and around 150. Oh and I am 5' 10".
