    Gosh, I am new and I hope I am doing this right....
    36
    5'9"
    233 lbs (never weighed this much...EVER)
    Goal - 170

    I am not only tall, but I have large bone structure. I will never be a size 8 comfortably. I am extremely depressed by my weight and I am ready to fight for my health which begins with losing weight. My calorie suggestion was 1460 and I am not afraid to work out, I will not run right now but I will treadmill and eliptical myself into next week, I also LOVE yoga, done right it really builds core strength and muscle...

    Is it too late to join!? I'd love to take part :smile:

    Height:5'10"
    CW: 155
    Short term GW: 150
    Ultimate GW: 140

    I go to the gym 3-5 days a week, depending on what's happenning. I'm pretty active outside the gym thoguh, I walk everywhere because I don't have a car, I ride my bike when I'm not walking, and I like to lift weights/do resistance training while I'm being a couch potato :laugh: . Right now I've bumped down my goal to 150 and I'm focusing more on toning my body.

    Best of luck you tall, tall ladies!

    Welcome! Me and you have very similar goals! I'm debating if 150 is a more realistic goal for me too...

    We've moved over to a "June Thread"...come find us!

    Hi Ladies,

    I just wanted to give all of you tall ladies a vote of support! I think you are the right height, and everyone else it too short ;)

    Good luck on your routines...feel free to add me as a friend if you need some encouragement. I just started using the website about a week ago, and am excited.

    :)

    I'm sort of new to My Fitness Pal...well to seeking help on the app anyway. I'm 36 and currently looking for help to get down to my pre pregnancy weight of around 175lbs or less. I want to be fit and healthy. I'm 215lbs now and 6 feet tall. Working full time, running a house hold and caring for a toddler leaves me exhausted but I need to do something! Any advice as to where to start?
