I am 5'10" and currently weigh around 165. It's hard to relate to some of the other threads with women much smaller than me. I was curious with people closer to my height what is the average weight and body measurements? Right now I believe that I am 38-33-39, my thigh is 23.5. I am feeling pretty good about everything except my waist. I feel that I could lose a few more inches there. If it's not too personal I would greatly appreciate replies.

    I'm 5'8 and 165, I want to loose 10 pounds. My friend is 6' and 200. So I think you are doing great! It's nice to have a number in mind but the closer you get the more you can think about the areas you need to change rather than the amount of weight. I know what you mean, it's hard to relate when 115 isn't even an option! Best of luck

    I'm 6'1.5" completely barefoot and 6'2" with any shoes at all. :]

    So I'm a little bit over your height but I'm at my goal, 170... although I would loveee to be 160. I believe I have what they call a gourd shape (think butternut squash lol) because my chest is small, my waist is smaller and my hips are the biggest of all. I have not had any children. I'm a 33-28-40. My thigh is 24 inches. So I am definitely bottom heavy. I would LOOOOVE to have smaller hips but from hipbone to hipbone it's 13.5 inches.. so it was never meant to be.

    I have a great butt tho.. so that's something. :] And I completely agree to the tall club thing!! I feel GIGANTIC compared to everyonnnnnne but I fit a small men's shirt and size 7-9 jeans.. not exactly big.
  • I am 5'10 and 173. My goal is 145- 150. My problem area is my stomach as well. And yes I agree that it is hard to relate to our shorter friends. My measurements are 38 31 40-- but I haven't checked them in a while.
    Good luck with your goals! You have come so far already:)

  • I totally know how you all feel! I'm 5'11" and i know i will never be a small girl because i also have a very athletic build...I weigh a little over 200 pounds right now and i want to get down around 165. I just started with this site and i'm feeling really good about it! =)
    Tall girls unite!!!!

    I'm pretty close to 6' and right now I'm 209 with a pant size of 14. I haven't taken measurements for a while, but I'll do that when I'm motivated and report back! I'm aiming for a goal of 170 for now!

    Yay tall ladies! I'm 5'10" and my goal is about 145lbs. I've definitely got a muscular build (under the FAT, that is.. :laugh:) but from my bone structure - wrists, hips.. - I know I don't have a huge frame. My problem is definitely my torso. I gain in the belly and boobs most of all. Ugh. Not sure of my measurements right now, either.
    I'm glad this thread was started. I've often felt unsure about my goals because there just aren't as many voices discussing what's healthy at our heights! :bigsmile:
  • Wooohoo for tall women! I'm 5'10 and about 137 pounds. I'm trying to gain some weight and looking to be around 145. I'd like to look a little bit healthier. I'm not sure what my measurements are but I am pretty big boned. :tongue:

    Hi Ladies,
    I am 5'8" (on the short side for this thread) and I currently weigh 175. My goal is 160 which I think will put me back in my size 10 clothes. My current measurements are 41 bust, 35 waist, 43 hip. I am huge chested and have a curvy shape even when I am thinner. I've also had 7 kids so there is no chance that these hips will ever be tiny again. I am ok with that though.
    Best of luck to everyone.

    Hi Girls

    I'm 5'10 too, this is a great thread!

    I weigh 153lbs and want to get down to 140lbs

    What I find quite interesting is dress size though, because i never seem to be able to get any lower than a 12 (UK)!!
  • Hi ladies! I just recently realized I was only about 5' 9 (I thought I was 5'10 for a very long time and for some reason 5'9 is hard for me to own just yet, I know I'm weird). Anywho...I'm at 187 right now and my goal at the time is 174, I actually don't want to get too skinny, I like being curvy (my boyfriend enjoys it as well :blushing: ) My measurements are about 38 bust 31.5 waist and 40 hips. I'm still in a size 14 I don't know if I'll ever make it into a 12. I have a couple pairs of 12 goal jeans but they really feel like they'll never fit :sad: Oh, also my upper thighs are about 25 (blah!) maybe that's why I can' t fit into the 12. My dress size is a 12 though so I'm pretty happy about that.

    I love hearing what measurements, weights, and sizes the tall girls are. I have a hard time determining goals because of my height so it's nice to have something to learn from.

    Hey all! I am 5'10" and weigh 146 I want to be around 140. I don't know my measurement?

    OMG! Me too. I wear a size 4 in pants. But when I try on dresses that have zippers on the back they just won't zip unless they are an 8 or bigger! I think it's because I have really broad shoulders from swimming. But I'm glad to know I'm not the only one with this problem. THat just shows that people are meant to be different shapes and sizes. :smile:
  • I'm 5'10" and about 180. I'm looking to lose about 10-15 lbs. before my wedding, but overall my goal is 150.

    I'm 5'8" and weigh 187 right now, my goal is 145. I wear a loose 14 now, but really I just want to be a size 6 jeans, so not sure what the exact weight for that for me is. We totally need to make this a tall girls support group! :flowerforyou:
  • I think your measurements are right on track, it is so hard for us to judge due to our height. I"m 5'8", I weigh 141, my measurements are 37-281/2-38, my thigh is 20. My goal is to weigh around 130, I want to lose at least 10 pounds.

    I'm a tall girl as well....for years I believed I was 5'11 until my physician recently informed me that I'm two inches shorter than I originally thought, but anywho....I feel like a giant in size compared to you ladies...I don't want to list my measurements because they are truly out of line with anyone who has posted. I'll just say I need to lose about 80 pounds to begin to even think of shopping in the misses section....working on it daily....did plyometrics last night (a killer workout) and I'm sore all over...Thanks for the motivation....someone, somewhere is always wanting to climb a tall girl....

    Ladies,
    I love the idea of having a thread for us tall girls. I can not relate to alot of the weight /size goals here due to sheer size of my structure ! Weight I can change....height not so much.
    So here's my deets....
    Height: 5' 10"
    Weight today :170
    Goal :145-150 or size 10 jeans whichever comes first
    Age, I never thought it mattered much but trust me,when it comes to weight loss it does : 49 yrs 11 1/2 months creeping up to 50 next month :noway:
    Measurements: 40 - 33 - 41 picture Bea Arthur will cool hair and highlights! Even with highlights having a figure like Bea Arthur is not cool.
    Pants size: 12, loose but not loose enough for a size 10, I HATE tight clothes. Suddenly I carry weight around my middle,and boobs keep getting bigger! WTH?
    Even when i was a blond hottie....back in the days of pacman, 8 track tapes and Peter Frampton, I didnt like tight clothes.
    God is smart, he made sure I didnt have confidance and that body at the same time. Damn shame when ya think about it :sad:
    I love this thread , I hope we keep it going.
  • Ooo what a good thread, Im just under 5ft 9 and i need to lose about 5 stone if BMI was correct.. :mad: However Im aiming to lose about 3 to 4 stone because i will never be "skinny" ive been big and heavy boned since i was a kid, i was a bean pole tall and skinny but my mum couldnt pick me up, she could easily pick up one of my friends who was the same size as me though.:indifferent: I think we should aim for what we feel confident or comfortable in as there isnt anything realistic for us to go on.
    I must do my measurements and get back to you though :smile:
  • Hello fellow Tall Girls!!

    I am 5'11 and am on my way to my weight loss journey!! I am at 210 right now but the goal is 155!! 55 lbs to go. I have a large body frame so not to sure about the 155. But we will see. I am working out and have signed up for a 5k run in april. Better get on the ball!! My mid section will be the hardest after 3 c-sections and a hysterectomy the muscles in my stomach are gone!! But never say never. Good luck all and have a Great Day!!

    Woohoo! This is awesome. We are the mighty amazons :wink:

    I've decided I'm going to commit to 5 lbs at a time to lose. So for now, I hope to lose 5lbs in the next 4 weeks.

    wow theres a lot of us. haha

    im 5'9 and i was 184 the other day . ill take measurements later cause i dont know them off hand

    my final goal is around 160 but right now im hitting a plateau with the actual pounds dropping so im working more on toning up. i am in a semi loose 14 and would like to be a 10.
  • I'm new to the site, so here goes. I am 5'10" barefoot, and I was told to be between 170 and 230 by all of my healthcare professionals. I have a very large bone frame, thanks to all those football players in my family and those great genes! When I weighed 230, I wore a size 16 jeans, and around 200, I was a size 12/13. I hope to get back to that someday, and I am off to a good start...16 pounds in two weeks! I don't know my measurements right now, but I would like to support those taller women out there. Of course, I applaud anybody trying to lose weight, but I think it is emotionally harder when you're a tall, large boned woman and so many images in the public eye are of smaller, petite women. Anyhow, good luck to everyone!
