    Hi all. Your pics all look great! I'm 5'7 and have gone from 221lbs in January to 147lbs now. I'm thinking I'd like to try 140lbs to see how that looks on me as I still have a really flabby tummy but we'll see how that goes! Here are some pics...can't believe I got big enough to be able to do one of those trouser photos!

    I'm 5'7" and I started somewhere between 176-180lbs in 2011. Currently I'm floating around 151lbs, looking to lose 5 more and tone up!

    2011ish

    I am 5'6". At my heaviest (this spring), I weighed 166. As of last week, the scale hit 139 lb! My goal is 135. The weight is definitely slowing down as I get closer to my goal, but that's OK. ;)

    If you click on my profile pic, you can see more of my weight loss journey pics. (I hope to post a success story when I hit my goal - I hope within the next couple months.)

    I started at at whopping 162kg/357lb six months ago. Have now lost 40kg/88lb. This was done without exercise. Unfortunately I'm still mobese, but not morbidly obese anymore. Each day I get some form of confirmation than I am on the right track. Oh, my height is 5ft 7.4in. (1.75m)

    I thought I was 5'8" but the life insurance nurse that was out a few weeks ago says I'm 5'7" - whatever. I started at 254 and am at 157 this morning, I posted my pics in the bathing suits before & after thread but I don't mind reposting here.

    SW 254.6 (and sorry for the weird cropping, I'd initially lopped my head off the pic but then later decided to put it back lol):

    and a few days ago at 159:

    At 5'7 and 128 pounds (BMI of 20) I am happy with my body. However I am hoping that getting my weight down to 121 or so (still a healthy weight) will make me a better long distance runner.

    I am planning on losing about .5 pounds per week (on a 2000+ calorie diet) for about 14 weeks until I reach my goal. I run a lot (and cross train) already but will be adding morning more strength training to help protect muscle mass during my diet.

    I'm 5'8", started at 265, and just dipped under 140lbs, meaning passed the 125lbs lost mile-stone! My goal weight is half my weight - I'm so close I can taste it ;)

    I don't havy any pics from, like, right now, so here are some earlier ones:

    265lbs:
