Hello all,

Just looking for weight loss buddies out there who are as tall as I am. Hopefully some of you out there are on this journey with me to a healthy and better you. I got over a 100 to lose so I would like to see pics of those that have met their goal. It's only been 2 weeks for me n I'm just trying to see the light at the end of the tunnel.

    I'm 5'7" and I am no longer focusing on weight loss but body composition. So i'm cutting down cardio and focusing on weight lifting as much as possible. I've had a lot of success with healthy weight loss though so feel free to add me.

    Wow your tall, I have broken down mine in 3 increments about 40lbs for each one. I'm supposed to be losing 3.3 lbs a week to stay on track. I didn't meet that goal last weigh in. But we can do this 1 pound at a time

    Lol I hate the muffin top too, I know us taller girls sometimes hide our weight real well. In my case no one ever believes I'm 300lbs n always calling me thick. It drives me crazy cause I'm like its not healthy holding all this weight n I'm fat n I feel fat.

    I am 6'1 and still have about 70+ pounds to lose. Being tall certainly is different. My best bit of advise to anyone new to any healthy lifestyle is NEVER GIVE UP!

    I'm about 5'10 or 5'11 and I've lost 55 so far, aiming to lose another 10. I don't feel comfortable posting progress pictures, but I swear they exist. [:

    EDIT: I guess my ticker disagrees! 56 lost.

    I am within a 15 pound window of my initial goal weight. I have a few comparison pics in my profile. I'm 5'10" and 31 years old. I was 300# even when I started, my tentative goal is 173. I will have my body fat tested at that point to see if I need to continue cutting or go on maintenance. Good luck to you! It's a marathon, not a sprint!
