    5'8"

    Original SW: 204lbs
    Fitness Pal SW: 165.5 lbs
    Current: 143lbs
    GW:140 lbs

    Ladies you can do anything you set your mind to! I am so close to my target of 10 stone now (only 3 lbs to go) and I NEVER thought it would be possible, it is a weight I never thought I would see. It does take time and effort but it is so worth it. I didn't even think I was that unhealthy at my highest but the change in me now when I look back at photos is unreal, I just feel so much better and fitter.

    IT CAN BE DONE, keep going and stick with it and your dream goal will come true.

    Can I ask how long it took you to get from your Original SW to your current?

    The first part from 204 to 160 took between 4 and 5 months and I did this about 3 years ago. The last 165.5 - 142 has taken me 12 weeks.

    Hello everyone,
    I am 5'8" I weigh 240.1 I have been over 200 pounds for approximately 20 years and I hate it. Therefore my initial goal is just to get below 200. My ultimate goal is to get to 155 which would be 85 pounds to loose. I would appreciate and reciprocate any encouragement.
    Thanks
    Amy
