    Most of my weight is in my chest, some think I am blessed, myself, at times? I feel like its a curse. Does anyone else have problems with a big chest?

    Honestly? I did. I was about 205 lbs and a 40I. I knew I'd never be able to have any sort of exercise routine with the constant back and neck pain I was in. I had a breast reduction. My insurance paid for it, and I went down to a 38C. That was 4.5 years ago and it was the best decision I ever made.

    I'm 5'2. I started at 171 with a goal weight of 135. I hit tht and lowered it to 125. I hit that and lowered it again to 120. I hit that and am at peace with myself.

    Good luck to you all! You can do it!!

    How long did it take you? Im in the same boat pretty much :-/
    If I can just get in the mindset and stick with it....ugh

    It took me almost 8 months.

    We seem to get one of these threads every couple of weeks. But okay:

    Height: 5'1"
    SW: 155
    CW: 128
    GW: 115

    I'll re-evaluate at 115. I might shoot for a maintenance range that's more in the 110-115 as opposed to the 115-120. I'll see how it goes.

    I'm still way too high on body fat -- I estimate I'm somewhere in the 30-35% range right now, down from ~45% at my SW. So with recomp goals I wouldn't mind going a bit higher on the scale. But that's sort of a long term goal since right now I'm still focusing on losing.

    I'm 4'11 and would like to be a size 4-6, which equals about 115-120 on my frame.

    I am a little over 5'1". When I set out on this journey I had 120-125 range in my head. Since then I have adjusted it to a range of 130-135. I work with a trainer and we take measurements and weigh every month. She said I was getting really close to my goal and took measurements in Nov. I had only lost .5 inches total (this has been after a year of losing a lot of inches each month). I got a little annoyed with that and the fact that I had not lost much weight either. We put off measuring in Dec and January. She measured me again and my measurements were the same. So she told me that your body will figure out what is right for you and to try not to kill yourself reaching a number on a scale. It took me awhile to get that into my head but I eventually did. I am happy with where I am now. I am right at 130 on most days and I wear a size 4 (US). I have developed a lot more lean muscle and my running has improved a ton.

    That is why I adjusted to 130-135 range. I am able to maintain this weight and still enjoy life. I even got cheers from my doctor.

    Good luck to everyone!
