I'm practically 5'7.. last time I was measured the nurse said I was -just- under so I'm just gonna class myself as 5'7 lol. I'm about 165 pounds at the mo - heaviest I've ever been - hoping to get down to about 135.

ALMOST 5'7"... every time I take pics I end up deleting them because they're so gross and depressing. I see the picture and am in disbelief because I don't FEEL that big. Yeah I'm probably one of those people you see and think to yourself "OMG she should NOT be wearing that"0

I'm right there between 5'7" and 5'8". I have an "unofficial" before picture from Easter but have decided to take a few pictures along the way to document progress. I started at 265 and am now down to 251 so about time to take some photos of 15 lbs lost. Goal weight is somewhere around 160 because I was looking pretty good right around there in college (about 10 years ago, lol) and feel I can maintain that weight without killing myself...ha! :laugh:
Definitely feel the middle of the road for the lengths of clothes some pants are too short in regular but too long in "tall"...I also find that some shirts end up too short on me as well...irritating...and I can't imagine what someone taller than me would be doing with the shirts that I have...guess they just wouldn't be buying those :ohwell:0 -
I'm 5'7" and I HAVE to buy tall/long (ON Tall is too long actually).
I've always had to, at 172# and now at ~145#. And will have to when I get down to 137#.0 -
Well, I've always been 5'7" BUT that crazy nurse at my last doctor visit insisted I was 5' 6" :huh: I do not like that, I'm working on making myself taller!
The lowest I've been as an adult was 155 after almost a year on Atkins. Gained it all back plus some and I think I really messed up my metabolism, it is SO hard to loose now. I'm shooting to get under 200 right now, I'll readjust my goals if and when I make that one.0 -
5'7" also, started at 227 on the 15th of this month and I'm down to 222. My goal is to stay between 145-150. The frustrating thing is I went through this all about 17 years ago. Back then I started at 226 and got down to 140, I maintained for a few years and then I got careless and stopped weighing myself everyday....the weight has just been creeping back on slowly for years. This time I know I can't stop weighing in, it's to easy for me to slip into denial 0

My ticker shows it all. I've been as high as 230, and as low as 160, and am currently somewhere in between.0

I'm 5'-6" but have really long legs (ie very short waist) Regular pants are too short, but long pants come with a long waist which frustrates the heck out of me. What I have had to do is get regular pants and get the hem let out and redone.
By the way I NEVER tuck my shirt in. This is not because of tummy issues (currently 138 aiming for 130 - 135 with more muscle).
It is because if I tuck my shirt in, my waist looks like its right below my armpits. This really makes office wear difficult.0 -
IM 5'7 CURRENTLY WEIGHT 147 HIGHEST WAS 159 MY GOAL IS 130 0

I am 5'6 and a half :P Started at 260 pounds, currently 252. Goal is to get out of the 200s, once that is accomplished I will re-evaluate. Thinking my end weight I would love to be is 130 pounds but that is VERY far off

I am 5'7" here are my pics to show progress:
This was my start pic at 250, my half way pic at 200.
This is me last weekend 95lbs down 5lbs from goal.
I can shop in any store now, choose styles I like instead of whatever fits, and am physically capable in a way that I can say yes to anything I am invited to now. Good luck on your journey.0 -
Love it! I so have that problem with pants too! I'm 5'7 and a half.0

Hi, I'm 5'7.5", and started on MFP in January 2012 at 211.5lb. I'm currently about 160lb, most of which I lost in the first eight months or so, and I've been a bit up and down ever since.....my goal is 147 (10 1/2 stone), but I'm also trying to focus on lowing my body fat % too. Finding it hard to be motivated at the moment, but really wanting to start losing again!0
-
5'7" here too! Starting weight 200lbs... now at a whisker over 156lbs and finally have a healthy BMI (woooo hoooo!!!).
Am aiming for around 140 - 145lbs, but really aiming to feel better and feel fitter and I'm definitely almost there if the last bit is the measure!0 -
goal 140-145
was 191
current 170
20 + to go!0 -
I'm 5'6.5 (but I say I'm 5'7 damnit!) I've been wobbling between 235-245 for the past few months. I should take before pictures...maybe they'd inspire me :P
(feel free to add me btw!)0 -
I'm 5"7'- currently 185. I know exactly what you're talking about. The worst pants for me are yoga pants and leggings- I look like I'm prepared for a flood at the gym!0
