Anyone out there 5'7" 165lbs? 113lbs down 22lbs to go!

Hey All! :)

I am a 27 year old female that is about 5’7” I used to weigh 300lbs and now im down to 1187lbs. My goal weight is currently set for 165lbs. I am a big girl at heart and all I really want is to be healthy and look normal. I don't want to go down too much because of my body shape I just wouldn't look right super thin. I carry all my weight in my tummy and barely have any booty and I have thin legs. I would love if someone is around my height and my goal weight and would share pictures. I want to get an idea of what I would look like body wise. I have not been 187lbs since junior high so I have no idea what I would look like 165lbs.

  • Hi-- I'm 5'8" and currently weigh 183. I had lost down to 163 pounds in the year that I had started my weight loss pogram. But in September of last year, I had a partial hysterectomy. And for 6 weeks by fiance, bless his heart, shoved burgers and whatever he could fix that was easy. Needless to say, along with the limited mobility and a not so great diet, my weight started going up. The past 5 months have been a real struggle to get back on track. But I'm making slow process. I'm a busty girl so alot of my weight, about 15 pounds of it, is on my chest. But when I was at my thinnest, 163, I had an hourglass figure and loved how I looked and felt.If I can find a full length picture, I'll post it for you. Tall people seem to be able to carry the weight proportionately, but I guess your genes have alot to do with it too. Sounds like you are doing GREAT!!! KEEP IT UP!!!
