Ladies 5"10 and taller?

bump!

Hey ladies,
I've been in the process of losing weight for the past ten months, and Ive lost almost 60lbs so far! I'm 5"11.5, started at 227lbs and i currently weigh 168lbs. My original goal weight was 140, but Im no longer sure that would be right for me, considering my height. Could you tall gals post some pics accompanied with your weight so I can get a realistic idea of what looks good on taller women. I know we all have different frames but this would be so helpful. I'm just so confused about where to go from here, now that my bmi is in a healthy range.

Wow! I'm 5'10 and is 140. I love how I look,but I think I should stay where I'm at lol.

BTW, I am 5'10", started at 165, with a goal of 145. I have lost about 7 pounds, and haven't seen a difference yet.

Here is my before picture (I don't have a during, or after one): NSFW



ETA: I had some technical issues with posting the image.

Hi there

I am 5'10 and I am currently 80kgs which is 176. My happiest and most comfortable is 73kgs - my avatar picture which is around the 160 mark. I have had 2 kids and would love to get back here - not too skinny and lean and strong

Hey! I'm 5'10". I have a very small frame. I weigh 124, I'm not trying to lose weight just gain muscle!

I'm 6' and I weigh 175ish lbs. 38DD, 78 cm waist, 100 cm hips, Size 8/10 jeans. I don't have many body pictures because I hate photographs!

At one point I had gotten down to 148 and you could count my ribs. I was eating 800 cals a day and exercising twice that. My husband told me to make a choice and I chose him over my ED. My goal is around 160 but I'm pretty okay with where I am now.

I'm 6'.
My goal is 165. I don't think I'll want to go below that personally. If I had a smaller waist I'd be more than happy at 175. I started at 225. I'm 189 now.

Hi! I am 5'11" and weighed in at 143 this morning. I hover between 142-144 most mornings. I HAVE NEVER FELT BETTER!!! I eat right and lift weights with a day or two of cardio thrown in a week. You can find my success story here which includes pictures…

I've dropped about 6 or 7 pounds since I posted it and am currently fitting into a size 4-6 (I thought I would never get to below a 10!).

I can't see myself getting much lighter. Actually, I could see gaining a pound or two of muscle as I continue to lift weights.

I'm 5'10, in to read later

Glad someone put this here because I was wondering the same thing. I too am 5'10 and I started at 357. I am currently 297 and want to get down to 180 as my goal weight. However, a lot of people seem to think that it will make me look really really thin. I would really like to be 180 but I need to be a strong 180. Like tight thighs and toned biceps. Most of my weight is carried in my thighs, butt, and hips so I will probably get down to a 12 to 14 at the smallest. But I am ok with that as long as at 180 I look strong and not sick.

I'm 5'11 at my heaviest I was 272lbs I'm currently at 243lbs my target is 160lbs but I don't know how I'm going to look when I get closer to that target. I have wide hips, a broad back and shoulders with some seriously thick calves :sad: but I can't change that unfortunately. I'd say get to a size that is healthy and you're comfortable with.

For me I'm going for a healthier lifestyle rather than "I must lose weight". The lost lbs are a bonus for me I'd love to be a tall, delicate flower with amazing legs and a feminine frame but no such luck :laugh:

My doctor wants me at 10 stone where I think personally i'd look too thin for my frame and ill. I'll settle for around 12. Unfortunately I don't have any pics for you I don't get caught at the lens end of a camera lol too scary

I'm 5'10" and currently 148 lbs (this photo is around 155). I'm still carrying all of my excess weight in my stomach, which I hate... but I'm going to start focusing more on strength training than cardio! My goal is 135-140 (depending on how I feel). My highest was about 180 when I was doing sports regularly but also eating all of the junk food I wanted.

I have really wide shoulders and hips, and I'm size US 6-12 depending on where something is tight. (Around the waist can be a 6, around the hips can be 12!)

(Broadness of shoulders vs. waist - http://37.media.tumblr.com/94675316561ec83a621db9c4e56577df/tumblr_mit2leXsin1r3jtwbo1_1280.jpg ). I think your final weight will really depend on how everything sits on your figure.

What I wear makes a HUGE difference (because of my broad shoulders mostly). If I wear something tight I look a lot thinner than if I wear something loose and it just hangs off of my shoulders like a box.

Age definitely makes a difference too! For example my ticker shows me on my 50th in December. 6'0, 144 lbs 38 - 30 - 37.5
When I was in my 20's 144 lbs looked a lot different. I didn't work on problem areas and concentrated on cardio. These days it's more about strength training

FYI, my highest weight was 226 lbs when I was 40...(couple of really stressful years and I was up 80 lbs)

5'10 and currently 160, thinking 145.

I totally think it's up to you and what fits you. People carry weight differently and some have more muscle mass and different bone structure than others.

Bump
