    I'm 5'10" too!! And my goal is also 175-160. But my plan is to have smaller goals and once I reach one I'll make another. Right now my first goal is to lose 55 pounds by my 30th birthday with is in July.

    Anyone feel free to add me as I don't have many MFP friends. Open diary and will help as much as I can.

    I'm 5 ft 10/11. Started at 250 last April and am down to 163. All it takes is dedication and making it a habit to log EVERYTHING and you can definitely accomplish want you're aiming for.

    Was 280, Current 250. First goal was 250, I just hit that. Second it to get to 200. Third is to get to 170.

    I have been big all my life. Had the lap-band done in 04 lost a bunch of weight. Had to have it remove due to it effecting my kidneys. Since then I have been losing it slowly over the years. Want to finish what I started.

    Hi there Im Chrys! Im on the way to loose ultimately 100 lbs myself . When I started MFP I was 256 ( which was not my highest weight I actually started months ago at 280 )I am now 235 (which was my first major goal), My next mini goal is 220 by March. Im following a primarily plant based diet with just a little fish thrown in every now and then.Who knows this is working so well I may give up even that and go completely vegetarian. I have found little changes at a time have worked for me and made it easier to keep to a healthier lifestyle. Oh and the spice rack is my bestest friend LOL..way to cut fat and salt without giving up flavor. I incorporate several types of exercise so as not to get bored ,from Aerobic walk dvds to swimming laps and swim aerobics to strength training ,elliptical,.well you get the point I really mix it up a lot. So yeah Im pullin out every weapon I know. I also see a dietitian through my healthcare provider. So theres meh story Im stickin to it. Im always up for adding more friends to my list for shared inspiration. :)

    Hi all,

    I restarted 4 weeks ago at 270lbs, which at 5ft 5ins is way too much. I have ME and Fibromyalgia which has meant I've been less active over the last two years and have gained weight from a combination of that and bad eating habits. I went part time at work last year and my overall health has improved some as a result - I now feel I have energy for me as well as work!

    So I joined Slimming World 4 weeks ago and have lost 7.5lbs so far. I've logged some of my days eating on here to see how it tallies up and I'm usually around 1600 calories, which is below my target. I do log my activity, most of which has been walking. Though I joined the gym today with my partner and really enjoyed my workout even if it wasn't as hard going as a lot of people's would be.

    I have been on MFP for a while (I tried to lose some last year but my poor health made it really hard so getting better became my priority) and am pretty good at replying to posts, giving likes and encouragement as I'm in it for the long haul and know how much that encouragement means! I don't really understand macros or that kind of thing but am happy to celebrate all the little achievements as well as the big ones. So please feel free to add me if you think I could support you or you could support me :-)

    Weather shouldn't make a difference .... A year ago March I started with my Wii Fit Plus and it was all indoors. I have done some outdoor walking but frankly I really dislike uneven pavement, weird rocks and big dogs. Last week I started at the YMCA and am looking forward to working out there with the circuit that coach had for me as well as swimming ... Monday, Wednesday and Fridays ... anything else is a bonus.
