    I'm between 5'8- 5'9". My SW is 190. My CW is 142- I was down to 131, but had some health issues plus muscle gain. My GW is 130. Pear Shape.

    5'8

    SW: 199
    CW: 160
    GW: 153-155
    Starting clothing size--16/18
    Current clothing size--mostly 10 and medium shirts, but have a few 8's and 12's in the closet--clothing seems to vary depending on brand/style.

    Body type--somewhere between hourglass and pear--I've still got the booty and the hips, but the chest went down considerably when I lost my first 25 pounds.

    GW: 125 lbs (only so once I start maintaining I can max at 130 lbs)

    I have a pear shape - currently wearing size 11 (that's what I wore at 150 as well - going shopping this weekend to try new clothes) Not sure what I am in womens.

    I'm 5'7", with an hourglass shape.
    SW:236 size 20
    CW: 196 size 14/16
    GW: 160ish I'd be happy to get into a 12!


    I was able to maintain around 200 after losing weight right out of college. In the past year, I've only lost ten pounds or so, but I've lost over 20 inches. I'm not as focused on the scale as much, since I do Crossfit and am building muscle, I'd like to lose at least another twenty pounds, but as long as I can do all of the activities I enjoy, I'm okay with it. I'm able to Crossfit, run, and go backpacking right now, so a slow and steady loss is fine with me. :o)

    CW:182
    GW: 160
    AfterI hit my goal I'm gonna reevaluate what weight I want to be, but I can't picture how small I'll be yet.
    I think I'm an hourglass but kinda peary with all this extra weight!

    Starting Weight: 214 - March 9, 2013
    MFP Starting Weight: 209 - May 13, 2013
    Current Weight: 196 - May 27, 2013
    Goal 1: Be able to fit on all the rides at Universal for trip on June 13, 2013
    Goal 2: Finish the Warrior Dash in an hour or less on July 27, 2013
    Goal Weight 1: 170 by August 30, 2013
    Goal Weight 2: 150 by November 28, 2013
    Goal Weight 3: 135 and toned by April 20, 2014
    Body Shape: Apple - Working towards exposing the hourglass shape underneath
    Height: 5'6

    Started wearing a size 18 bottom and XL top. Currently I'm wearing size 16 bottoms (and 1 pair of size 14 shorts) and some large tops look good. I would love to be a size 10 or 8 and generally toned. I've hated the body I've allowed myself to live in for a while, but our upcoming trip to universal really helped motivate me to start working out, I don't want to be the person who gets kicked off because the harness doesn't fit. My goals are really aggressive for me, but I hope that I can stick to the plan and see them thru.

    Good luck everyone!

    SW: 165

    Body Type: Small framed, with hips and thighs, a bit bigger chested and high waisted....slight pear shape I guess would be a good assumption.

    5'7"
    SW:242
    CW:222
    GW: 200

    I want to see under 200... from there I am going to have to figure out what feels the best. I was, at my best (as a sophomore in HS) 145 and nearly too skinny at a size 14 jean.
    Currenly pants 18 (just NSV there!)- goal to be at least 16.

    I am 34 years old. Height 5"7. Pear shape. I carry most of my weight in my butt and thighs

    SW: 217
    CW: 203.5
    GW: 150: My aim is to get to size 9 jeans, when I was there is when I was at my happiest.

    How do you all do it? My weight loss is pretty slow to non existent. I lost the first 10 lbs pretty quickly but since January I have only lost 4lbs.

    I'm 5'6 and started off at 220lbs after my 2nd baby. I'm now 157 and wear a UK size 12 which is a US8. I have trousers I bought on holiday in the US years ago that are an 8 and a bit loose now. I'm hourglass shaped. I'd be happy with my size now if it weren't for the mummy tummy I still have! Just need to tone up a bit. Ideally I'll get down to 150lbs.

    5'7" SW 211 and my GW is 145 i was down to 147 and i liked it but over the winter i got lazy and started smoking again i maintained 147 fairly well but i found i didn't exercise as much in the winter but kept eating like i was and my new relationship has me eating out a lot more than i used to so i put on the weight in the last 6 months. I have an hourglass shape. Now instead of weight loss I am going for muscle gain I have shifted my focus to body shape rather than the number on the scale. I currently wear size 7 pants and most of the time medium to extra large shirts depending on the cut. i have found that my breast size has not changed much at all but the band size has.

    I'm 5'6" and was a size 14. Currently a size 10 but it seems a little less since everything is baggy on me again. I'm hourglass shaped.

    I'm about 5ft 6.5''

    SW: was around 158-160lbs but my HW was more like 170lbs.

    CW: 150lbs

    GW: 130lbs (but this will be evaluated when I get there so it may be lower like 125-120lbs)

    Body shape: I'm like kind of an hour glass but maybe slightly pear. I'm not 100% sure. Either way, I've got a fairly big bum haha. I'm a UK size 12 in jeans but a UK size 10 in everything else (tops, dresses, leggings etc).

    I'm 5'7"
    SW: 200
    My current weight is 176.

    Goal weight is about 166, though i'll see how i feel and possibly go to 160 or even 155, though I don't really want to lose what figure I have, ha ha.
    Body shape is pear; baby wasn't easy on my hips! But then, I used to be a banana so I kinda like having curves even if they aren't the ideal.

    I'm 5'7 and I carry it mostly in my waist... slowly going away. I started on MFP at 145lbs and last time I weighed myself I was 133.8lbs :) My goal is between 14-16% body fat, right now I'm at 17.2%.
