    Trying desperately to not look like the grandma role that I find myself in! Anyone else have the middle age trouble with weight clinging to the middle and arms that don't want to tone ? Very frustrating when you do everything that's supposed to work, and get little to no results.

    At goal currently and maintaining :) 112 was a little too low, I like myself best between 113 and 115. Trying to tone up though, not much muscle going on right now and I'd like to change that.

    Height 5'3" (or a fraction under)
    Age: 22
    Heaviest Weight: 153 (69.5kg)
    Lowest Weight: 140 (63.5kg)... in recent times, did get to around 132lb/60kg in late highschool

    Starting weight: 148.8 (67.5kg)... On 5th of October
    Current Weight: 140lb (63.5kg)
    Goal weight: 127.5kg (58kg)... aiming for 136.5lb/62kg by December 20th.

    I want to get back into weight lifting and be pretty strong/muscular at my longer term goal weight.
    Struggling with consistent training and working away from home a fair bit at the moment. Also some emotional/boredom eating.

    I'm really loving the community I've found on MFP so far.
    Feel free to add me :)

    Hey guys! Spotted a few similar ladies here but the posts were all from a few years back! :#
    So I thought I would post afresh!

    Age: late twenties...
    Height: 5'4" (and a half!)
    HW: 140
    CW: 128
    GW: 115 - although the number on the scale matters less, ultimately I want to be flexible and lean with a fabulous shape. Hmmm. Need to get my *kitten* into the squat rack!
    I have a longer torso / shorter legs ;)
    Also Vegan.
    So... That's my life, pretty much! Haha.
    Any twins out there? :)

    I'm also looking for my twin.

    Age: 26
    Height: 5'9/10 -- I say 9, everyone else says 10.
    Heaviest Weight: 211 lbs
    Starting Weight: 211 lbs
    Current Weight: 165.4 lbs
    Goal Weight: 154 lbs
    Lowest Weight: That I can remember...150 lbs when I was like 14.

    To be honest, my goal weight is flexible. I'm more working towards body comp/feeling comfortable with my body than losing X amount of weight. My stomach is my bone of contention. It's a family trait to hold hormonal weight there and so it's a slow moving process to improve it, visually.

    I gained a bunch of weight after a head injury (I could literally do nothing but eat). I like my curves, so I don't want to lose too much. BTW, I'm at my heaviest in this profile photo.
