    Im 5ft 7in and currently weigh 259. My starting weight was 275. Ive been on MFP for 30 days and lost 16lbs. I need to get some current status pics taken to record my journey.

    My goal weight is roughly around 170. I can adjust it from there to see where i will look and feel the most comfortable with my body.


    My biggest excitement will be getting back into ONE-derland :smile:

    Excellent thread!!
    I am a little under 5'7", 46 years old and started a fitness regime about 6 months ago. I workout 4-5 days a week with a trainer - 30 min of weight training, and 30 min cardio interval training each time. I also try to get out and hike and do hot yoga once or twice a week.

    Starting weight was 180, and I am down to 169.4 as of this week. I have been at 169 since July!!! It is time to focus more on the calorie counting and nutrition -- starting NOW. I joined a 6-week weight loss challenge at my gym and I am hoping that will motivate me. My goal is to lose 10 pounds in the next 6 weeks -- about 1.5 to 1.75 pounds per week.

    My goal is 135, but I haven't seen that weight since before I had my kids (who are 21, 17, and 12). We shall see. 140 may be more realistic!

    Let's keep the motivation coming!!!

    Can't post pics cause I don't have a computer and my phone won't let me.... I'm 5'7" as well, I started at 208lbs, 36.5% body fat, measurements were about 48-37-47 and I wore a size 12-14; CW is about 160lbs, 23.7% body fat, measurements are now 38-29-39 and I fit a size 6... I still have a ways to go though, my goal is 135. All I really did was stay under the calories MFP recommended (although I did have a few slipups, which is why it has taken about 5 months), also I started running and doing strength training combined with cardio.

    I'm 5ft 8, starting weight 183 lb, current 171 lb, target 161 lb & see how I feel then :happy:
    I got down to 154lb a few yrs ago, but wasn't a good look for me, as I'm pear shaped, bottom half looked great, but my top half looked underweight.

    Amazing work ladies!

    I'm 5'7", started at 172 in late February 2012, met my initial goal (145) about late July, reset it to 138, and just passed that (I'm 137 now) and losing on maintenance after surgery. Have to increase calories I think.

    Have been running daily (except post-surgery) as well as long walks, 1200 calories a day and eating back exercise calories that average 400 a day.

    Have to get some photos sorted out soon I guess. Was a 12/14 clothing size, now in loose size 8.

    Hi ladies! :) I'm 20, 5'6 1/2" and joined MFP in 2011. I got serious about this in February 2012 after my fiance of 3 years proposed to me. I am looking forward to being around 150 right now because thats where I was in high school and I loved how i looked, though once I reach my goal I will probably continue into the 140's. My highest known weight is 230.6 and I am currently at 205.6.

    Before at 230ish.

    5'7" both are durings. i never took a true before picture but i started at about 255 and didn't take the first pictures until 240.

    i never had a specific regime. started about a year ago and just eat under the recommended cals and tried to work out when i could. i do turbo jam on occasion but mostly just walk and swim. i didn't want to make major changes to my lifestyle because i knew i would be more likely to give up.

    CONGRATS !! wonderful progress, you look great!!!

    I'm 5'7 and I weigh 133-135 honestly Idk lol but I was at 123 a week after I had my daughter and I stayed that way for a year but then somehow I just gained 10ish pounds. :/ I don't have a goal weight, because I am about to start insanity and I know I'll be gaining some muscle. I really just hate my stomach. That's where all my fat goes! But I will look a lot better if I tone up the rest of my body too, so that's just my goal :) I have a low thyroid issue but I hope that doesn't prevent me from reaching my goals.

    I don't have photos yet but I will eventually!

    Still a work in progess. I don't have any other pics of me in a bikini at my highest weight so this one isn't exactly the before but close enough. When I started I was aout 157 lbs. Now I'm probably somewhere around 135, was at 132 I don't know because I don't weigh myself anymore.

    I'm 5'9 and I started at 234... 3yrs of online school added 40lbs to my life. Since I started in July, I have lost 7lbs. My goal is to be about 170. I go to LA Fitness as often as I can - Belly dancing class ROCKS! I have a personal trainer as well. In terms of food, I could do better. I have given up juice which is really hard. I still need to cut back in so many areas - alcohol. I no longer eat til I'm stuffed, and if I ate something truly fattening, I make sure I hit the gym or go walking come hell or high water! My son is my biggest motivator - he comes to the gym with me!!
