    37; 5'6; small frame; starting weight: 148 CW: 134.6 goal weight : 125-130. Not sure yet. Pick small goals you can accomplish consistently. Eat all the things you like, in moderation. Don't have a timeline for when you want to reach your goal. Only do this if you are creating a life change; a restrictive diet will not create long term success. Don't focus on exercise until your diet is under control. Weight loss us about calories I , calories out, not about how much you sweat.

    CW: about 149lbs
    GW: 130lbs (might change to 120lbs)

    Tip - Log as accurately as you can. Weight fluctuates so watch the trend and don't get hung up on single weigh in's. Find activities that you enjoy and that keep you active. Don't let a bad day turn into a bad week/month/year.

    I am 39 started at 300lbs, and i am 5'5". Want to get back down to 140 but will be happy with 150 right now so 20lbs to go. I was down to 135lbs before thyroid removal and still struggling to get that off. Course some its fault some self sabotage :-(

    Not sure of tips i follow very low carb since my body seems to grab a hold of them like no tomorrow. And of course exercise. And DONT mess yourself up with self sabotage as i keep doing ugh! Willpower i need to find you again

    Be patient. You will lose some weeks, you will maintain some weeks, you may even gain some weeks. Don't freak out over one trip to the scale. What matters is the overall downward trend.

    For exercise, find something that you like to do. It doesn't have to be what everybody else is doing. You don't have to be a runner or do Stronglifts 5x5 or yoga if they don't appeal to you. It's more important to find something you'll stick with than to follow the crowd.

    Currently following a keto diet plan along with my FI, exercising daily (be it hot yoga, hikes, weight training). Having a blast and feeling better all the time :)

    This, but 24yo, SW 188. I don't do much cardio, focus on lifting.

    Tip: eat the way you plan to eat while maintaining your weight... just less food. If you don't plan to eat low-carb for life, don't eat low-carb for weight loss, etc.

    Even though that is still in the overweight cat, I was at 157 for years and was happy, comfortable, toned and looked good and went between an 8 and 10 in pants. My Doctor was good with that weight. I'm not a small boned gal but not big either. I eat at a calorie deficit and cardio on the treadmill and my sons weight bench has opened up a whole new world. I also got a Fitbit Zip and it has really motivated me to keep moving. I started this 12/26 and have lost 16 pounds with 16 more to go.

    26yo, 6'0 was 5'10.5'' before my spinal fusion (scoliosis) april 2014.
    SW:118lb (2011) I have a very small frame.
    CW:141lb
    GW: My running decides my weight. (distance runner). Intake 3000+

    The fusion kinda stretched my upper body. So I might be 6'0, but I weigh the same when I was 5'10. And I love it! :smile:
