I'm in the same boat, thanks for the Topic, that was truly encouraging. I am at 198.4, 5'4" and started Monday, but am down 27 pounds from January. So I'm pretty pysched to be under 200lbs.

Only advice I have is don't try to rush it. This isn't about being on a 'diet', it's about a lifestyle change that will make you healthy.

I mostly exercise with my Kinect, but I am starting a gym membership after I get back from vacation in a couple of weeks (to lift weights mainly). I eat real food, nothing "diet". I cook a lot from Cooking Light and Clean Eating.

I am 5'3 and when I gave birth to my son I was about 225 (yikes i know). When i started MFP i had lost some of the baby weight and was around 180. I now am down to 143 and can wear a bikini for the first time since I was 10. It definitely can work if you put effort into and change your lifestyle. Hence why I don't look at it as a "diet", it is a way of life. I want to be healthy and fit, not "skinny". GOOD LUCK!!!

my profile pic. I am 5'3" and started out a little under 200 lbs and am currently 140 lbs.

I'm 5'3 and my starting weight (before I found this site) was 233

Current weight is 201

Goal weight is undecided. I'm pretty muscular and BMI says I should weight 140 or lower. I think I'd be happy at 150 though.

I'm wearing a sz 14/16 depending on clothing brand.

I am 5'3" and been at this for about 100 days. I have gone from an 18 to 14-16 and I am thrilled. I just fit into a swimsuit that is a 14 and last year it was 18 and I wasn't comfortable in it. Woo Hoo!

kericson

Hello there! I'm 5'2, starting weight was 198. Currently down to 145, I went from a (snug) size 18 to a 9/10 so far. I'm not done yet, goal weight is around 120 I'm guessing, depending how I look/feel when I get there, but I have no doubt that I WILL get there, and so can you.

ctoteh86

I am 5'2.5 I weigh 200 just started so I am still around that mark maybe 2 pounds shy of the 200 mark. I would like to be 130.
