    Worried a little about weight loss. Worried a lot about toning. My baby is 18mo old.
    Height: 5'4"
    Heaviest weight: 156 (after baby)
    Current weight: 135-140
    Goal weight: 130
    Lowest weight: 98 (at 18,lol)
    Anyone out there feeling bad eventhough they are at a good weight? I just want to feel comfortable in my 6's. I float now between 6-10 on any given day.

    Age 23 (24 in a few weeks)
    HW: 160 (I can thank college boozing for that)
    CW: 135
    GW: 125-128

    More focused on how I looked than the number on the scale, I am an apple shape, so legs and arms are already pretty toned. Mostly looking to work on defining a waistline, toning up my upper and lower back, and getting rid of my muffin top!

    We're pretty close and I attribute my heaviest weight to booze as well, haha.

    Mother of three ages 8, 5, and 3wks (born 11/20/12)

    I'm really down and out about the excess weight I gained during this last pregnancy. I keep hearing it'll be fine you'll be back in shape in no time but for me "no time" has came and gone. Husband says i look beautiful (but that's what he's suppose to say) while my pre-pregnancy jeans sy otherwise. :-(
  • Age: 16 (says 18 on my profile, but us younger teens need to be fit too, especially with all the dang video games we play!!)
    I am 5'7
    Heaviest: 160
    Current: still 160
    GOAL!!!! : I'd like to get to 150, then build some muscle, but I know muscle will add to my weight, so I suppose I will be 160 again after that.

    I'm unsure what body fat percentage I am.

    I'm a little surprised that some of the girls at my height are wanting to be 100 pounds. We must have VERY different frames! :D

    Are you out there twin?

    Yes, people do have very different frame sizes. That is important to understand for 2 reasons. The first being so that people do not try and reach a weight that is too low for them. And the second being so that people do not insult people that have a small frame (that is why the bmi range is so large). I have always weighed between 100 and 109, and I am small in bone structure (small feet, small wrists, small waist). To give an idea of how different frame size can be. When I was pregnant I ate and ate and ate. At 9 months, full term pregnant, with a 7.5 pound baby in my uterus I weighed 135, and a few days after giving birth when my blood volume and fluids had returned to normal I weighed 115. And I still had plenty reserve to breastfeed for well past a year (almost 2 years). I'm only saying this because I just so often see people insulting small people on mfp. But, on mfp we tell our weight. In the real world everyone encounters people that are 100 pounds and they just don't even realize it because the person is so healthy and does not look too thin.

    I work out 5 days a week mainly been doing weights for over a month with some cardio mixed in. I really want to lose these last few pounds!! Come on twin where are you?!?!?


    Hey Jmac263 we're pretty close. My goal may need to be adjusted when I get there we'll see...

    I too work out 5 to 6 days a week. Cardio 3-4 days and weights 2 days. After this month i'm looking to focus more on weights, as I should be at my goal weight by then.

    I have no idea what my BF% is but I hope to find ou within the next month...just need to find someone who has a BF device.

    Hey all!
    5'4'' here
    HW: 130-140?
    CW: 119
    GW: 110-115
    CBF%: 20-21
    GBF%: 15-18

    I'm currently eating around 1800-1900 cals a day, focusing on protein and healthy carbs. (This has been working for me better than focusing on 1200 cals)
    I try to work out at least 5 days/week



    Hi! We're pretty much twins! I am:
    5'4''
    HW: 125
    CW: 119
    GW: 113.5
    I'll be happy if I weigh 110-115 - I just chose 113.5 specifically because in college that was my weight nearly every time I weighed myself, and I didn't feel like I had to really work to maintain that weight - just ate a healthy diet and exercised regularly. I've let my sweet tooth take over for the past couple years and would like to get back to where I was!

    I think you might be my twin, except my 'baby' is 3.5.
    Height: 5'3" (161cm)
    Heaviest weight (after baby): 150+ (70+kg) - was too scared to weigh myself after I hit 70kg!
    Starting weight: 141 (64kg)
    Current weight: 127 (58kg)
    Goal weight: 120 (maybe as low as 110 once I get to the first goal)
    Lowest weight: 99 when I met my husband (aged 17)
    I'm the classic 'skinny fat'. Not focussing so much on weight loss but want to be more fit and strong and lower my BF% (previously as high as 33%, now about 25%, aiming for 15-20%). I want to be able to keep up with my very active little boy!

    It would be really cool to find my twin because I am just starting out and it has been really hard to break my poor eating habits. I have also been trying to keep my diet on the DL because everyone says, "you don't need to lose weight!" But I want to look and feel good in a tight dress and a bikini again!

    Hey, awesome idea! I'm looking for my tall "twin" I guess!

    Height: 178 cm (5' 10")

    HW: 90 kg (198 lbs) <--- holy crap!
    CW: 78 kg (172 lbs)
    GW: 75 kg (165 lbs)

    However, as I nudge closer to my GW I think I might bump it down to 72 kilos. We'll see what happens when I get there, once I get to my GW I'm going to focus more on toning and increasing overall physical fitness.

    Good luck and keep up the good work, everybody! :)
