Oh...forgot to add that my ex bf is 5'8''. The guy I'm currently drooling over is 6'6'' and gorgeous and NICE. I can even wear my highest shoes and STILL be shorter...awesome.
And my birthday is on Halloween! Lot's of hot and tall Scorpios around here.
I dated a guy who was 6'4 and it was amazing. Well, as far as the height goes - I also learned from that relationship that I don't need to be dating someone who I could get all my social work clinical hours with. I ended up providing a LOT of free therapy, lol :grumble:0 -
I'm 5'11'' and 212 lbs. Oy vey. Sometimes being tall is nice. For instance, I carry my weight very well.
Same - I'm 217 and probably don't look like it. On the other hand, I have to have a dramatic weight loss for it to be noticeable and go down in pant sizes. That was nice when putting the weight on but is a pain when it comes to shedding it!0 -

5'11. 147 lbs after a year of weight loss dedication - trying to maintain now. In Jan 2011 I was 190 and pushing a size 16. I'm now a comfortable 4/6 for the first time in my life and I feel great. It's a long road, but it's so worth it!0

Hi..I am 5'9. When I was a kid I HATED being tall. but now I love it. I wish I had of got that attitude when I was 12. I am sure it would have saved me a ton of grief.
i do hate trying to buy tights though. The croch always hangs down unless I get a X size. and then they are falling down in the waist. Annoying.0 -
I love being tall. And after struggling with not being a size 2 like all my short(er) girlfriends, I've finally learned to love the way I look. Not in a vain way but in a self confident way. I love putting on a pair of great heels and making an entrance!!!!0

Never really thought of myself as tall but I'm 5 foot 9 and a tiny bit! I think one thing is the weight creeps up on you! Mine crept up my legs and currently sits on my bum and hips! Chest still a bit of a non event, and I'd kill for a clevedge!
Currently 157 looking to drop 14 more pounds, was 168 at my heaviest and couldn't bend over to fasten my shoes, and looked 6 months pregnant. We all carry it differently don't we!
Good luck!0 -

So interesting... everyones bodies are so different! I am 5'11" If I was 190 I would be a slim 14, I started at 236 and was an 18, down to 217 and have plenty of room in my 16's. I am trying to get to 175 should be size 12, people will probably think I am sick if I get any smaller than that! I don't think I was ever a size 4/6, even at 145 in highschool I was an 8/10.
Love this thread and that there are lovely leggy ladies out there! Add me if you are looking for a motivated MFP friend.0 -

Honestly, I never thought I'd get down to this and I thought I'd look sick, but when I got to 157 (which was my goal), I still felt thick. I still needed to lose more - 10 pounds later I felt much better.
I believe sizing has changed from 10 years ago - but I was always around 155 even in high school and never wore lower than a 10 until this year. During my journey when I got to a 10 I was so happy, but I was 165 when I was in a 10 this time. I figured I might get to an 8, but as of now all my dress pants are 6's and all my jeans are 4's and all my tops/sweaters are S. Which typically is an issue since I swear they make smaller clothes shorter in the body and arms...0 -
5'8.5. All my closest friends are about 5'4 as well, so I'm the giant, in both ways! :P Also, I'm turning 20 in just under a week, hooray for birthdays! Will add you0

I'm 5'9"....embrace your height! I love being tall and wearing heels. We tall women can hide our pounds a little better than my friend who is 4'11"0

There's a group on here I'm part of for tall women. Try searching it, it's great.
But yeah, I'm 5'11'' and my boyfriend is 5'4''. I weigh 282 but look less because it's spread over more ground haha.0 -

I'm 6ft too...and we share the same birthday, both witches! My husband is also 6ft but doesn't mind me wearing heels at all.0 -
At 5'9" I've always been taller than most of my co-workers, but it doesn't really bother me. My hubby is 5'11", but he slouches so we look the same height! lol Hoping to lose 30 pounds and get back into a 14. Buying clothes is a big pain. I can get tall clothes at JC Penney online, but with differences in sizes from one name-brand to another, I sometimes wind up holding clothes until I lose weight. (deep sigh) It is true, also, that smaller sizes tend to be shorter, unless you get a "tall" size.0

I'm 5'9", is that tall enough?0

I am 6'1 and also a scorpio!0

On the other hand, I do usually have hi-water pants. (All my height is leg.)
I have the same problem! I'm 5'9" and I have a hard time finding pants. Even the "long" or "tall" cuts aren't long enough sometimes. Ugh.0 -
i'm 5'7"...is that considered tall? and i added you! i need more support buddies:D0
-
I am 5'9 but never really felt that tall growing up I played volleyball so most of the other girls were taller. It is nice to have a board with other tall women! I am new to myfitnesspal and looking forward to getting started!0
