5'4 Ladies who went from 190-145?

orangesmartie

I've come down to 190 from 224....
I have set my new weight goal to 145.. Just needing some photos for inspiration..

This is my first goal too! I'm 5'4 I started at 256 and am currently 195. I'm aiming for 140lbs first off and then after that I will see how I feel/how clothes fit and maybe then push on to 125lbs. But to be honest, i can;t even imagine getting to 140lbs!

My progress pics to dates are here: http://www.myfitnesspal.com/blog/orangesmartie

I have a picture from when I was over 170lbs and my current picture was a week or two ago at 146lbs... You can take a look at my pictures to see the change.

My heaviest was the photo with my daughter, bent over in a black sweater... my legs were as wide as my abdomen. I don't have any full bodied pictures that are recent but hey the loss in faces can say a lot


Congrats on your loss! You have a great goal

I will be stalking this thread! I am 5' 4 3/4", and I started again yesterday at exactly 190 pounds. I haven't seen 145 in almost 10 years, I have no idea what size I'd be at that weight. Right now I'm at a size 16 pants, and I feel like crap.

We are the exact same height I was a very stretched out size 16 when i was at 190 and I'm 148 now in a size 12. But I have big hips and tend to be a size bigger than most girls my weight, so I'd imagine you'd probably be in a 10 by then! Good luck, you can do it!

Actually, I am quite pear-shaped, so my lower half tends to run larger than the average gal.

I remember way back when I was a teenager, at 118 pounds, I was still a size 7/8. Although I know sizes have changed quite a bit since then!

145 here and 5'4
(heaviest 225)

My legs are pretty thick still. I wear a size 7-10 on pants
I can wear a size 6 to 8 on dress.

I would love to see 125lbs!

I am 5'5" tall and just turned 50. I started on August 20, 2012 at 214.5 and I currently weigh 138. My goal is to lose 3 more lbs, then reevaluate. I'm sorry, but I don't know how to post pics to the board. My current profile pic was at 139.5 lbs.

That'd be me exactly actually! After having my son I was right around 190, and I am now down to 145. It's taken me about a year and a half to get here (I love exercising, its just the diet part that gets me! lol) I'm thinking I have 10 pounds to go, but I'm not too worried about the actual number, just how my body looks. I have mostly been running but within the last month or so have been lifting weights too, so I may acquire more muscle and stay right around 145! Add me if you would like I can always use more friends on here and like motivating others as well!

Okay, so you may very well be around a size 12 when you get to the 140's! Which you will! That's US size, not sure where you're from as your profile is locked. I've got huge hips, as I've mentioned before, and I'd also be a pear shape if I didn't have my boobs and shoulders to balance them out HAHA

Wow! These photos are so inspirational! I'm also 5'4 with a goal of 145. I'm 166 now, but began at 174. Just started getting serious on mfp recently. Great photos guys, and fantastic progress!

I was 180lbs in this picture.....down 33lbs from my pregnancy. I have had 4 children, my last pregnancy being twins.


And this picture was taken in October 2012. I was 140-142lb.... i haven't lost anymore weight. I'm really wanting to get to 130lb so we will see....I don't think with my shape my body will allow me.

FANTASTIC JOB!

WOW! That's amazing. You look so great:) I have a goal of about 130 lat's about 50 pounds away.... but who knows maybe I will change my goal when I get to 130.

I hear a lot of girls who are around 200 say they are aiming at 145 and I am not sure if that is really what they want or just what they think is possible. I started out at 218 so I set my original goal at 125 but I really only thought 140 ish was possible. I thought if I could just get to 140 that would be a miracle. 140 is an accomplishment by all standards but I just want to everyone to know there is a chance you may be able to do more. When I got to 140 I was thrilled with the accomplishment but not completely happy with the result yet. Have faith, just because you are over 200 doesn't mean you cannot reach the same goals as a girl who starts at 140. :happy:

My profile picture is me, currently at 135 lbs. I'm 5'4" and started out at 151. Unfortunately my 151 looked more like 175 on me b/c of the way I'm built. I went from a tight 10 to a loose 8. Now I'm just working on toning, but I'd like to stay between 130-140.

I'm the same- started at 151, which looked like 175 (all belly). Now at 142, hoping to lose another 15-20.

I started with MFP last July at my HW of 183. I'm sitting at 150 now, and would like to hit 145. Love seeing all the posts of people with a similar journey!



Here is from a week or so ago, about 152.



I was wearing size 16 capris in the first picture. The dress in the second is a size 8. And I am feeling sexy in it!

I'm 5'4, but genuinely don't know weight (living in someone else's flat in Russia, no scales, long story...) but I wear UK size 16. Started with MFP just over 2 weeks ago, and 30DS a couple of days after that. I'd like to get down to a size 10, but don't know if that'll be possible - I went straight from kids' sizes to size 12, so have never worn 10!
Anyway, I'll post pics when I've finished 30DS, hopefully I'll see some progress.

I started at 203 two weeks ago. This morning I weighed in at 192! My size 14 pants are getting super loose and my DDDs have definitely gone down! No pics...I'm too shy for that still
I am hoping to get down to 150 lbs before my wedding in a year and a half! I am just a hair shy of 5'4.

These pics have been really inspirational, ladies!
