Ok, I'll play the game. Guess my starting weight a few months ago. I'm in the middle. I'm 5'3"

    Okay, I know that you want to lose 80 lbs, and you are 5'3". If you want to be in the normal range of your BMI index at 125, I would guess that you were 205 in this picture.

    Because I am 5'3 and looked vaguely the same way when I was 190...

    I'll guess you at 180-ish..?

    I loooove your red hair! I used to dye mine red all the time! :happy:

    Re-thinking it, that's probably way off and it should be significantly less. I'm 5'10" and that's about how I looked when I was in the 220s lol. I think my height has me all backwards!

    Either way, you look great. Awesome progress!

    Alright, well truth is, that in that picture I was at my heaviest. 250!

    ...are you serious? Your body distributed the weight very well! Definitely didn't look it!

    220

    Although the pose (side) and partially obscured figure make it tough to tell. Not a fair challenge IMO

    NO WAY! You don't look it at all. I was going to guess 185.

    You look amazing. Fan-freakin'-tastic!

    Congrats!

    Yes, it's a tough picture for sure. I definitely have not been fond of cameras ;)

    220-230? I'm really bad at this. Almost as bad as guessing how many jelly beans are in a jar like they do with raffles.



    oh, just saw you posted the answer already. I was way off. I usually don't read replies much until I answer the op

    I WAS GOING TO SAY 190 and then I read this.

    Wow .
