    I am 5'10" ( 5'11" if you catch me in the morning, and when I am not slouching ;-) )

    I have a very slim body frame.

    SW - 148
    CW -140
    Goal -135

    I don't have a ton left to loose but, I would like to loose it by summer. I really need to do more toning than anything else. My husband and I plan on trying to have another child in about 6 months, and I would like to get my body back into shape before I get pregnant again. That may seem counter productive but, I would like an easier pregnancy this time around, with more energy, and a quicker recovery time.

    I have a large frame and have always been a big girl, so 168 might be a bit of a stretch. More than anything, I'd like to be comfortable with myself. I had been holding 178 or so pretty steady for nearly a year- until my husband and I quit smoking. It was like the weight came on overnight. It's been a huge struggle to lose just 7 pounds. Hoping for some motivation/inspiration on here! :-)

    Hello!

    Good luck everyone and feel free to add me! I'd love to have some extra fitness buddies. :P

    Hey Everyone.

    I guess I never posted in here when I initially joined the group (it's quiet in here!)

    I just turned 31, and have been a member of MFP since Nov/12.

    Stats:
    5'11"
    SW: 204
    CW: 188
    GW: 175 +/- (I'm mostly interested at this point in losing fat/gaining lean muscle which may not register on the scale)

    I started out wearing a size 14 and in the last picture I am wearing a size 8. I am currently working through the New Rules of Lifting for Women and have seen GREAT changes in my body composition from this program.

    Best of luck to you all with your goals!

    Here is a picture of me when I started 30 Day Shred (I think that this was around the end of November):

    Hi all, I am 6 feet and currently weigh 153lbs. I am 48 years old. I joined MFP to help lose body fat percentage for competition in BJJ a form of martial arts. I just love the features of keeping track of carbs, fats and protiens. I am looking to get down to 15 percent body fat by adding muscle mass. I want to stay within the 148-154 range.

    I'm 5'11
    Starting weight: 310 lbs
    Current Weight: 298.4 lbs
    Goal Weight: 170 lbs

    I used to think my goal weight was too high because it's not the goal weight of most of the people I know (most of which are under 5'7). It's nice to see that I'm not alone in what I think will work for me and my tall frame.

    Hey tall ladies!

    I'm 5'10"
    SW: 154
    GW: 145ish

    I don't care too much about the weight, I want to lose inches. If my weight stays about the same, but is in muscle mass, cool.

    Here's some measurements:

    Chest: 35
    natural waist: 32.5
    waist at belly button: 39
    hips: 41
    right thigh: 23.5

    I never struggled with my weight in my teens and 20s, so I indulged. I ate everything and never worked out. When I got into my late 20s it suddenly began to change and I put on about 30 pounds in 18 months. I was in denial for a while until I got a cholesterol test and it was borderline high. I saw a dietician and made some major changes in my eating. My cholesterol is now quite good, but I am not any trimmer or stronger. I'm not very disciplined about working out. I have an impressive muffin top to work off. That's where the majority of my fat is. I'd like to get rid of it and tone up. I started 30 Day Shred today and am hoping to stick with it!

    Hiya!

    SW: around 200, but I hadn't gotten on a scale in so long, it's hard to be positive.

    This is a picture taken somewhere around the start of my weight loss, though I guess it was technically before the holidays so I put on a bit more than is shown.

    This one is more recent, taken in China over the Summer. I've lost another few pounds since here but you get the idea.

    I'm very type-A and remarkably friendly so feel free to contact me. I hope we can be friends :-)

    I am 6'0. My starting weight almost 3 years ago was 371. I have lost 143 pounds as of today. YAY!! My goal is to be under 200. Not sure if I will ever be in the "ideal" weight zone. I just want to feel comfortable in my skin.

    I have been to the doctor and based on my bone structure a healthy weight for me is between , 125 and 130 so I thought I would shoot for the most to lose.

    I'm just shy of 5'10 and 29 years old.
    SW: 160
    CW: 138

    My lowest adult weight was 135 which was last year. I am now in mainanance mode to stay betwen 135-140. I am hitting the gym regularly to build muscle tone. In 6 months I was able to drop my body fat from 24% down to 19%. I think 17% would be my GOAL body fat percentage.
