    I have same goals, and am currently at 194lbs -- what did you do to look like this *you look fantastic!!!*

    Thanks!! It's been an on/off journey for about a year and half - but it's really about the diet!! My stomach gets flat when I stick to a paleo/clean eating diet. Lots of veggies and protein. And lots of water - I'm also pretty active (3-5 days a week at the gym or hiking or running.. 45 min to hour) - also staying away from booze! (that's the one that gets me) i love wine but my belly does not - i can eat healthy and work out but if i'm drinking wine every night, my weight won't move and my stomach shows it

    5'8" with a "large" frame according to all the calculators (esp my shoulders--when buying two-pieces I usually buy a large to and a medium bottom LOL)

    Starting weight: 175

    Current: 155

    Goal: 132-138 range.

    It's really nice to see others on here my same shape and size--it's hard to tell what weight I "should" be when most girls on my friends lists are 5'4 and trying to weigh 115 lbs!!!

    I'm 5'8, so maybe a little shorter, but have always been the 'big girl'.

    My starting weight was 271, and I'm down to 150.

    If I can do this, anyone can! If my photos can inspire, I'm happy to share!

    Holy cow. You don't even look like the same person. You look 20 years younger now. Congrats!

    Jen... you've already seen my before/after shot, but I'll share it again for others participating in this thread.

    I'm just a hair under 5'9" and currently weigh 136 lbs. I suppose I have a mixed frame - my shoulders, pelvis and ribcage are all spacious and would lead you to believe that I have a large frame. But my ankles, elbows and wrists are all quite delicate/tiny and fit within the measurements of a small frame. So, who knows...

    In the 'after' photo below, I weighed about nine more pounds than I do now.

    Also, I have long arms, long legs and long fingers. LOL and I wear a size 10 shoe. I don't know if that makes me a large frame but I've always believed that about myself. I now can fit in most "medium" sizes but they still don't fit because I'm too long. LOL!

    I'm 5'9" 166 pounds and have been considering myself a "rollie pollie ollie". (My code phrase for calling myself fat). A shame, right? What I loved about this thread is how I get to see women around my height's stats and pictures. It's so easy to look at you all and see how beautiful and non-fat you are. Makes me reconsider my self perception.

    You're all gorgeous. Please don't forget it. And, congrats on all your hard work!
