5'10.5 with 20 lbs to lose, any tall ladies out there?

tallpixels

Hey, I just joined this site a couple of days ago, but I've been actively losing weight since early last year. I'm 5'10 1/2, down 35 lbs, and have about 20 more to lose. I've never used a phone app/site to help me lose weight, but so far, it's been great motivation. I log on everyday and update frequently.

Anyone can feel free to add me, but I'd really like to add ladies who are around my height.

Added! Congrats on the weight loss... it's great to connect with other tall ladies, losing weight is definitely different for us

I'm 5'9 and I've recently reset my account so I don't look like I've lost anything but I've lost 6 this year (it was a good idea for me to reset personally). I've set my current goal at a 30 lb loss.

I'm 5'10" and have a lot to loose. I just started MFP a couple days ago, looking for some support. I'm focusing less on how much i have to loose and more on making changes for a healthier lifestyle.

I did something similar, I've actually lost a lot more, but decided to start my account based on how much weight I have left to lose instead of how much I've lost total.

Congrats on the weight loss so far!

Hi, I'm 6' tall and aiming to lose 10 kilos which is 22 pounds I think. Started 2 weeks ago and still quite enjoying it

mwepner

I just posted almost the same message this morning. I also feel that for tall girls it's a totally different ball game. If I hear one more person say "you are lucky you are tall, cause you carry wieght well" i may just go culumbo on them. LOL :-) COngrats on your weight loss! That is awesome it sounds like you and I are reaching for the same weight loss goal. I'm looking to lose 50 and am down 20 so far.

I am 5'10" with 75 lbs to lose. I've been on MFP for about a month and am still motivated (that has to be a record in itself!!).

I'd love to have more friends on here.

There is a tall women forum, although not very active

I agree that it is different for us. All our numbers are different. My goal weight is my shorter friends obese weight, I had to reconcile within myself that I will never be 120lbs (I could be, but I wouldn't look or be healthy, plus it would be a full time job to stay there).

geminside

Hey girls! I am 5'10" and still have 55 lbs or 25 kg to go. Started MFP 2 weeks ago after signing up a while back.
Would love to stay in touch!

rachelisrued

I'm your exact height and need to lose around 40 to be my ideal weight.

eileen0515

I'm 5'9"+ some. I 've lost 45 pounds total since September. I'm pretty new to MFP. Not sure what my final goal will be. But I am 4 pounds to the goal I first set, and that is a normal BMI.

Banya7

Hey! I'm glad there are more of us out there! I'm 5'10.5 also. I've just started being really committed to MFP this year and have lost 7 lbs since February!! I have a lot more to go but I'm in a good groove and feel like I can really do this! I'm great with motivating so if you need that support please feel free to add me!!

Good luck and good health!!

Banya7

Hey! I have about 65-80 lbs to go and I'm on here frequently throughout the day! Want to friend me and we can help keep each other motivated?

Tammi623

Hey I'm 5'9" and I have to lose around 45lbs

jazzerciseN

Hi! This is my first post! I came on here to find tall girl friends who are fighting the good fight (like I still am). My shorty friends don't understand how different it is when you're tall, much like I don't understand their "short girl" probs. I started at 295 and I'm currently down to 205. Great job ladies! You're truly inspirational!

AshleighTB

Hey, I'm 5'9 and want to lose about 30lbs for my first goal. I would love some support/friends

SandersWifey

I am 5'10 and have about 6 pounds to go! <----which by the way are the HARDEST!! But what my profile doesn't reflect is that before coming to MFP I lost 40 pounds.

I am all to familiar with tall people problems in the world of weight loss!!

I have a short friend who says to me that I am lucky that I am tall, because if I was short I would look a lot bigger....wait...what??:grumble:
I hate left handed compliments!!

candymara

Hi there! Another tall girl here I'm also 5'10 I feel like I'm shrinking though since I sit in a wheelchair all day. It's a strange sensation spending 22 years of my life standing taller than most and now I look up at the world LOL

But anyways, I love my phone app too. It's so much easier to remember to log in and stay motivated when its on the start screen of my cell phone I'm also using a neat calorie monitor armband I found called BodyMedia Fit from bodymedia.com. I wear it all day and it communicates via blue tooth to my cell and tracks how many calories I actually burn. Pretty cool. I guess this is weightloss for the future!

Good luck on your journey and feel free to add me if you like!
