I have my before and after and back to big photos. My skinny pic is after losing 40 pounds.

I'm 6'1/2" and when I was 165 I looked awesome! Then again, I was taking a dance class 6 hours a week, playing badminton at least 3 hours a week, and going out dancing. Also, I was 20.

I'm hoping to get to 170 then firm up a bit.

I am 6'1 I have some pics up I am actually 5-10 lighter than when I started on MFP but I have been lifting you can check my page for pics....I can see a big difference I am a lot slimmer now than back then...

The pic on the left was before I started strength training. I was a size 12. The pic on the right, still 155 lbs, but now a size 6, thanks to strength training.

Wow! You look great. How much time was between these two pictures? Were you still eating at a deficit, or at maintenance?

This was about a year. I was eating at maintenance, or roughly 1900 calories. And thank you!

I think it definitely takes a bit more weight to notice the difference when you're taller. (I'm 5'10")

This is roughly 40lbs and my tummy is still holding on for dear life!

Yeah, I am 5'10" and started at 255. I lost a solid 40 pounds before people started noticing. Just hit one-derland this week! Will come back and post some pics tonight.

I love reading the successful loses but am also sitting here thinking holy hell!?? I am 6' and was 230, currently 217 and looking to get to 175.. Which I thought was enough except I'm reading some of you ladies are 6' and 145!! O.o

Work towards your goal and reassess. You may find you're perfectly happy at 175. You might decide you want to go lower after all. I'm 5'10" and 143. I'm not trying to lose weight now but rather lose fat. I would be okay if I gain weight, too, as long as it's muscle! I have a very small frame, though. My wrist measurement is only 6 inches. 175 on me would be too much, but I've seen plenty of pictures of women my height at your goal weight and higher that look amazing.

Oh I know, but sometimes it just seems like wow maybe I'm under estimating my goals....like maybe I'm suppose to be 150? I will reevaluate once I reach 175

I know how you feel, I started at 193 and my goal was 170 - a healthy BMI for my height (5'10"). But then I reached 170... and I wasn't happy. I'm now at 154 and I'm aiming for 140. I plan on maintaining around 140-145 but like was said above, I wouldn't mind gaining weight from there as long as it's muscle!

It depends on how it looks on you. I, too, have a very small frame and the weight is very noticeable on me. I see other women my height on here who weigh as much or more and if I looked like they do at this weight I'd stop losing right now! I also realize it has a lot to do with muscle mass - I could choose to tone up right now and build muscle while maintaining my current weight. But I'm going to lose the weight and then build muscle weight after instead.
