I want to get back to being the "Tall Girl", not the "Big Girl"

Hi all-
I'm Lara and I'm a single mom of three kids. I coach high school varsity basketball and I'm a full time student. Since New Year's Day, I've cut out wine (talk about unnecessary calories) and have been paying close attention to what I'm eating. Some days are better than others, but I'm happy with my results this far.
I'm 5'11 and started making adjustments at 195 lbs, and I'm about 7 lbs lighter than when 2015 began. My goal is to reach 160-165 lbs by summer.
So pleased with this app and it's worked well for me in the past. I'm looking forward to making some new friends and for support.

    So. I'm just shy of 6'; and I read the title and was like "THat's me!" but then I got my panties in a bunch because you're high weight is barely above my first goal. I've lost 40lbs and still am 267. Obviously this is because veryone is different. So if you want more tall chicks, I'm definitely one.

    Me too! I'm 5'10" and used to be thin too. However, two kids and a love for food has put me at my max weight of 223. My goal is to get to 180. I would like some new friends as well!! I quit smoking with quit net and find that people rooting you on really seems to help when facing challenges. I started this journey a few months back and ended up quitting because I over did the exercise and gave myself Rhabdomyolysis. Starting again, but going to take the exercise a bit slower this time :smiley:

    Best of luck to all of you!!! Remember that it's not about comparing your weight/weight loss with others...just focus on progress! Thanks for your messages, girls. Tall chicks are sexy
