    SW - 248lbs
    CW - 192lbs

    Goal? A healthy BMI !

    Not so worried about the actual weight as the more important thing is how I feel and if my weight is in the healthy zone.

    5'7 (and a half lol)

    SW 307
    CW 282
    GW 165

    I dont know if I have a large frame or not (not sure how to describe the term) but I have wide hips (that I love) and big butt (that I love) and big boobs (that my hubby loves) and I love my curvy figure...whenever I was under 160, I looked too thin for my taste. I figured that I would see how I look/feel around 175 and then move from there...I don't think I'll go lower than 165 though

    Age: 25
    Height: 5'6"
    SW: 215-220lbs
    CW: 167
    GW: 130-150 (whatever feels right)

    I have an hourglass shape that is slowly turning into a pear shape the more weight I lose :( but once I lose more and lose wide calves and thunder thighs I'll be back to the hourglass. I worry that 130 will look too skinny, but I do want to hit 150lbs. After that, I'll stop when I'm comfortable and happy.

    This is soooo great at your young age that you're not putting off losing weight. I wish I'd cared more when I was younger. But it's never too late! I have a 40 year old daughter in law that runs 10 K's and marathons along with all her other aerobic and strength exercises, and she's 5'8" and I'm guessing here--about 145 lbs. And she looks terrific!! I'm 5'7" and my goal is 160 and I will be 70 this fall. SW was 276, CW is 225, and my intermediate goal is to be under 200 by my birthday. I'm back to exercising regularly now after my knee replacement last summer.
    So, stick with it. You'll just love living a healthy life through your 30's, 40's, and beyond. What won't you be able to do! Lucky you!

    It can be done! Keep going...you can meet or beat your goal like I did.
    5'7"
    Starting Weight=155 (1/1/2012)
    Original Goal=128 (6/18/2012)
    Current Weight=122 (9/3/2012) w/ fluctuations between 118 & 124 since meeting goal
    New Goal=stay <125 forever

    Your weight seems too low to me. I was that weight at an age of 25, but I had no muscle. I just ate way less to get to that weight. Within a few years I started gaining. If I had exercised--especially strength training--I bet I would have gained muscle up to a weight of 140. That is realistic. Are you doing any strength training? Please do.

    I'm a dancer and training for my first 1/2 marathon in October. People never believe me when I say how much I weigh - either they're being nice or I hide it much better than I think I do. Either way, I want to feel healthy and like how I look again. Anyone can add me.
