Looking for people going from 140lbs- 120/115lbs!! PLEASE!!

I'm 5'5" and started at close to 140 and I'm now 118 (yay!). This has taken me about 3 months. My ultimate goal was 115 but I'm thinking maybe changing to 110. I don't look unhealthy at all at this low of weight. Feel free to add me

Hi everyone! I'm 5'2 and started at 184 before I got PG with my first. After two kids I was still hovering at 184, and in danger of going up even more! I managed to get down in to 160 while breastfeed (on WW, their bfing moms program) but was stuck for a while at 160, then againa t 150. I'm at 144 now, it seems each 10 finds me at another plateu. I find changing up the exercise works, not sure if any of you watch extreme makeover weightloss edition, but I find that show to be helpful. One woman who was in her 40s and not losing as much claimed she was exercising, but when closely monitored with a heart monitor, they determined she wasn't doing as much as she thought. The other lesson was the rule of 6k, every 6 days, change what you're doing, otherwise your body gets used to it and the workout isn't as productive.

Those lessons learned, I upped my exercise, got a wii fit and started running outside (actual running is much different than wii fit running, lol). With vacation last week and cupcakes and cookies in the house, it's been hard to say no to the sugar. Today I was mostly good, and tomorrow is the start of a new week with more difficult exercise.

Well then ladies, let's keep in touch....

for those of you who have had some success thus far, what have been your top 3 activities/strengths/food/habits that have gotten you there?

I am 5'5'' and My top weight was 147lbs, my current weight is 139lbs. My goal weight used to be 125lbs but I am now aiming for 115lbs. I am hesitant about the new goal because no one in my family is that small. I am going to keep eating well and running until I reach 125 and then join classes at the gym to challenge me to drop the last 10lbs.

January '15 I was at 137lbs, now 115.6. I'm 46, 5'2". I lift heavy (did Stronglifts, now doing PHUL) and cardio is limited to 1-2 18 minute HIIT sessions a week. I concentrated on fat loss so I'm eating lots of protein, kept carbs under 200g/day, fat I didn't track. I don't eat much packaged food because it's easier to eat nutrient dense foods when you prepare it yourself. I do go out to eat once a week on average. I have a Fitbit Flex and set MFP to sedentary and ate the Fitbit adjustment calories it gave me. I'm using the past tense here because I am happy with my weight now and am tweaking my calorie/macros to cycle on training/rest days.

I'm 5 ft 4 too and started at 154 pounds it's taken me over a year to lose 28 pounds and I'm now 126 pounds. I want to lose some more body fat but I'm not trying to lose any more weight I'm trying to build more muscle. I would say that losing slowly has meant I've learnt how to eat much better. I started off trying to restrict calories and whilst it worked it was slower than I wanted. I saw the best results when I paid at ten to macros and really started to eat well. That meant I had more energy for exercise and my workouts have massively improved which means my body composition has improved which is what I want anyway. I would say consistency is key and not to expect fast results.

Before I got pregnant I got to 148, delivered at 170 & now I'm 115! You can do it

@sumiblue - how long did it take you to get to 115 from 137. And what's is PHUL? Thanks!

Thanks! I have to work on my patience!!!

I did it .5 lb-1 lb at a time. You can do it!

And alas, the first post I see after typing the above is on T5 slimming pills, or whatever! Sigh!

@Sumiblue Thanks. Just 10 lbs to go. That would be ultimate dream weight. I'd be ok with losing just five. It will go. It will go. It will go!

I'm 5'2", 142 and would love to get into the low 120s. I started the year at 148. It's slow going so far, but I'm trying to be patient. I've been at 142 for the last 2 weeks.
