    I'm 5ft 10in and also currently about 71.2kg ( been up to about 76kg). I'm "sporty" type- broad shoulders, wide hips but still relatively slim (but I've always had an active life). So I guess our shapes are a little different. I find it really easy to put weight on (particularly my waist, but obviously hips and lower tummy too), and I'm about a C-DD cup depending on where I'm buying. I can't seem to fit into size 12 trousers in most places but easily fit in size 10-12 tops (UK sizes) in most places....

    The first bit of weightloss was easiest, I've been plateaued around 72 kg for ages (been on here since start July and logged for 140 days!)... but I'm now trying to cut down on the booze (boo!) and a bit more portion control which seems to be helping break the plateau. I don't really have a specific goal - I want to get and stay under 70kg but I don't know if I ever will- I' always focussed on healthy lifestyles rather than a weight or size.

    We seem very similar!
    I'm a little smaller though, pretty much the same weight, but I bought jeans last week that are a 10 (uk8-10 I think), I've always been active, more when I was in school, but I've worked as a gym intructor too. & I put weight on mostly around my hips and the low part of my tummy, This time last year I was 10kgs lighter and more 'athletic' & 'pear shaped' and a C-D cup as opposed to a DD now. My heaviest was a few weeks ago, a bit of a kick in the butt and the reason I signed up, 73kgs.
    (I changed from working in resturants and a gym to working in an office in june 2011)

    5'10". Hourglass with a big bust. 53

    Starting and highest weight 188
    Current weight 163
    Goal weight 150

    What works for me is logging and measuring accurately, hitting my calorie goals, eating healthy, and exercising regularly but modestly. Pretty boring!

    What's your height & What's your goal weight? (& current weight if you don't mind)
    What's your "body type" and your shape, as you see it?

    & most importantly, how are you going toward your goals!?
    ... What's working, What's not?

    My height: 5'10"
    CW 151
    GW 140

    Body Type: Pear

    I'm working towards my goals by starting more strength training, less cardio. My thighs still jiggle too much and need toning and so does my stomach.
