Before and after pics and what you weigh and what you used to weigh.

Did you have loose skin after all weight loss to your goal.

Whats a good weight for my height?

I started at 290 and currently 220 was thinking like 160 but I am not sure

    I'm 5'9". I've lost about 23lbs this year (15 since joining MFP in August).

    For me my ideal weight is 175lb based on weight I felt best suited me in the past. Almost at goal and then will concentrate on body composition.

    In my 20's I dieted down to 157lb but felt too skinny and weak.

    I'm at about 5'8". The first time I went from 215 to 153. This time I started at 226, and am at about 190, right now. I did have loose skin on my stomach. I've heard if you are young, it has a better chance of shrinking, but as you age, skin loses its elasticity. I've got some of my pics on my profile.
