    Omgosh!! I've been going through the same thing. I'm 5'9 and my 175 weight on the scale is crazy compared to their 140-130 weight. I'm looking to get in the 150s or 140s too

    I would be a skeleton at 150.

    I am tall AND muscular AND long-waisted AND broad-shouldered AND...well, large of breast.

    My goal is 190. I started at 300. My lowest weight thus far was 208 and that wasn't very fat for me.

    5'10" with a goal weight of 160. I totally understand I think that is a starting weight for a lot of shorter girls!

    I completely understand! I started at 183 and have a goal weight of 150ish. It's a little disheartening to listen to my shorter friends talking about having to move up to sizes that I'm working my tail off to get down to! :p

    Anyone can add me if they wish!

    I'm 5'8" and have a goal weight of 145. That was pretty darn skinny for me in high school when I was running cross country. Feel free to add me :) I've got 32 more to go.

    I'm absolutely in! I'm 5'10.5" and at 208 lbs. as of today. My goal is ~155.
    Do you want to start a group? It'll be great finally being able to share some of the obstacles we have to overcome. Not to make it a gripe session and probably getting totally off-course but I'm totally stunned (well used to be; not so much anymore) how I can go into a clothing store and find racks and racks of petite clothing but nothing for the tall girl.

    My phone won't let me add anyone for some reason but feel free to add me! I'm 5'8" and my goal weight is 170 for now. 13lbs to go...

    yep, I'm 5'10.5" and started at 192 lbs (2yrs after baby!) now am at 158. I want to get to 150 mainly to shrink my rear end. I've stalled out and have been eating like crazy this week. I need to buckle down and get to my goal. At 150 I'll readjust my goal to see if I want/need to loose another couple pounds.

    If anyone wants to add me, I'm in need of friends with open diary's

    I'm 6'1" and sit around 180. At 150 you can count all of my ribs and I looked pretty unhealthy, being busty too. My goal is around 165 but I'd be happy around 175

    I'm a taller(ish) girl, but have a small frame and therefore, feel 135 would look appropriate/fit on me. It's very different for everyone, of course.

    I'm currently at 145 (started at 175) and am just working to lose fat now, but would love friends with similar height and/or weight goals.

    I am 5'9 5'10 depending on how straight I stand lol :) I did really well on myfitnesspal last year but have regained after moving and taking a new job. I am 165lbs now and I am working to get back to my first GW of 145lbs and ultimate GW of 135 or 145 very toned. I would love some tall friends!!! Sometimes I just feel like an awk giant talking about this stuff with my friends who are of more average height and small frames.

    Hurrah for tall ladies! I'm 5'11 (I added you, OP). My starting weight was 215 lbs, which put me at a tight size 16. My current weight is 150.8 lbs, which puts me at a roomy size 8 jean, size 6-8 dress. I was aiming for 149 lbs, but I have so much extra weight on my hips still that I've decided to aim for 139 lbs, reevaluating at every lb whether I want to keep going.

    If anyone has any go-to US brands/stores for good tall fits, do tell. Lately I've been buying a lot of Anne Klein dresses at Ross. I need to have the belt loops lowered on a few of the sheath dresses, but the ones without loops/belts fit perfectly. Since I'm still losing weight I haven't committed to nice jeans yet. Old Navy Tall sizes to fit pretty well, for how cheap they are.

    My goal is 153, I'm 5'11 and 36 years old. I'm only 4lbs away...

    In 2012 I got to 143 which for me was way too light. I just was on a roll and wanted to see what being in the low 140's was like for once. The low 150's is where I should be and stay.

    Yes! Weight can vary so much between heights and body types. I am 6ft and currently 188 - trying to get down to 160. I am a med/large frame and even some of my slighter-built tall friends have skinny weights of 135/140. I am just never going to get there! 160 is very thin for me and I can't wait to get down there again.

    My lowest weight was when I was around 20 y/o (30 now) - I was 153. Don't think I will ever get there (healthily) again, but would like to reclaim the abs and jaw line of old.

    Would love to connect to some tall ladies on here.

    I'm 5'10 with a goal weight of 150ish. I'm mainly trying to be healthy and fit and if that means having some extra muscle that puts me at a higher weight I'm good with that :smile: I started at 255 and I'm currently hovering around 168-170. Anyone feel free to add me!
