eh..large framed girls...that sounds better!! LOL

I have searched through the forums, but I really don't see many before/afters....around the stats I am looking for. (yeah, I am picky!)

Anyway, large framed girls...especially if you are 5'4" or under.....let me see your pics!!

I have set my goal weight for 145....but seeing some pics recently of how I look now...I am not sure if that is low enough. Just trying to get a vision here. Humor me?

Thanks <3

Oh, and yes, I have looked at the "body gallery" website...just not the same :(

    I'm around 5'4 and have my goal set for 150. I'm currently 226, was my highest at 274, 8 weeks ago when I had my son. I figure I like how I looked at 150 (in 9th grade) looking back at pictures I looked good and healthy. I'm going to get to 150 and see what I think, maybe I'll stay there, maybe I'll go another 10lbs. Hard to say until you get there and see how the "new you" looks! :-)

    I am 5'4" and 8 years ago I was 150 and it was awesome, I got married, had a child and got myself to 226 ish (HW) and now I am 209. So first I have my sights set on 150 but we'll see, right now ONEderland is my mini goal!!

    Sorry no pics yet, I'm just not ready
    5'4
    cw 179
    gw 145

    I'll re-eval when I get there. I was 140 in high school so I think it's a good goal.

    I am 5'1...maybe 5'2 with thick cotton socks? lol Anyway, right now I am currently at 234.6lbs (54.2lbs LESS! 9 month journey so far) and WILL LOSE 100 more lbs :)

    I started at 288.8lbs (August of 2011) and my goal is 135lbs.

    At first I was un-easy about posting before & after photos of myself, but then I thought..."Hey, if it'll inspire/motivate other people then hell why not?!" So here we go:

    I'm a heavier set girl and i know what you mean. I'm 5'5-5'6 and most people in that range have a goal weight MUCH LESS than what i want. My goal is about 180. That would be very high to some but thats perfect to me. I dont want to be skinny. I love my curves actually. I wouldnt look right below that.
