I'm 5'10" and I don't have a picture, but I can tell you that it usually takes about 15 pounds until I start to see changes in my body. I've got short friends that lose 5 pounds and it's so noticeable, but not us tall gals. And I'm about 10-15 pounds to go down a clothing size. Conversely, it takes about 15 pounds of weight gain until I have to wear my big girl jeans. Which isn't good...0

I'm 5'9" - started at 245, down to 155 with an ultimate goal weight of 145. Presently size 8 on top, size 10 bottom. 90 pounds lost over 2 1/2 years. Focus now is on body recomposition - really would like to see more muscle development and reduce bf%. Many pics on my profile...0

I this thread!
I'm 6"0 tall. My heaviest was in December 2013 at 221 pounds. I started MFP this January at 215, currently at 189. I haven't seen the 180s in 10 plus years when I was working on unloading trucks for a major retail company all day!!! I'm going for a goal of 175. I don't want to be any smaller than that (got to have a little T-n-A on my body :laugh: ).
I welcome any new friends if anybody wants to add me. Hopefully I'll post a new profile pic this week.0 -
@ Kateauch,
Great weight loss and defintion (especially your arms - WOW)!!!! :flowerforyou:0 -
Mine probably are not of much interest as I have never been overweight and my aim was to become super fit rather than the skinny fat I used to be. However, I am 5'10, or just a tiny bit under, and 131 Ibs.

love this thread!! I have some "before" photos but I haven't lost enough weight / built enough muscle to really see much of a difference yet. I'm 5'9 currently 171, forever size 12 in pants.... seriously. the booty don't stop. The changes are small at first- I don't know where I'd be without my tape measure. It seems like that's the only place I see any change ever.
But hallelujah for tall women carrying weight well and PLEASE feel free to add me!0 -
you ladies look amazing! Gives me a lot of hope and inspiration to keep going. I have the opposite body as some stated, I'm bigger on top. Not huge chested, but I carry weight in my middle and arms. I am really looking forward to showing my legs off though! I think I'm gonna buy a cute shortish dress for myself as a 25 lb reward. Hopefully like 6 weeks from now.
I know I can never talk to petite women about weight stuff. It's just so different and foreign to me that they could be obese at 180lbs and I'm like "I would look GREAT at 180!!" hahah
Thanks for keeping the thread alive!

I am .25" under 5'9" (5'8.75")
I had my second baby in 2013. I started at 165 after birth, I am now 135lbs and my goal is 128 or less. Measurements currently are HIPS 37 WAIST 26 LOWER ABDOMEN 33 THIGHS 21. I am inches and pounds from goal. I have been 115lbs before which was way to skinny I think high 120's at my height is fit and muscular without excess body weight...but not under fat in the sense that I will still have curves.0 -

Ha! I know that feeling! No offence to her, but I have a 5ft 4 colleague who keeps moaning about being 11st- that's my goal, grr! Horses for courses, I suppose.0 -

Wow you look gorgeous! You really have that hourglass shape, and that dress is lovely!0 -
I'm 5'11" and have big bones these pictures are around 190 (brown hair) and 185 blonde hair (I'm the bridesmaid). I feel great at that weight but my BMI says I need to weight 135-175- while being in that range would be super rad I can't imagine being smaller than 160 without looking sick.
Also- I'm currently around 200 and about a size 12. I carry my weight in my but and hips so I'm smaller in the bust and waist.
Good luck!
So

I have the same UGW as you, but I'm 5'10. SW was 170, CW is 157. Also am focusing more on a defined lean muscle healthy look rather than skinny fat. Adding you as a friend!0 -

I was at maintenance in 2nd and 3rd photo. Since I'm trying to add a little mass, I'm at 145lbs. right now.0 -
I'm 5'10 and 150lb (68kg) and trying to put on muscle and drop bit more bf. Lifting 3-4 sessions a week. I find it really disappointing that even though I'm increasing in weight I'm lifting and working at a progressive overload I still don't see alot of change in body shape or muscle. Does anyone else find this difficult? And how long before you saw any real progress?0
