    5'6"
    Highest Weight: 156
    Current Weight: 140
    Goal Weight: 130

    I don't have a reliable way of testing BF, so I am currently a size 6 in most pants and I'd like to be a small 4.

    Hi Mimi,
    We are kinda twins!

    height: 5'6"
    HW: 157
    LW: 107 (figure comp 10 yrs ago)
    CW: 147
    GW: 131 (weight when I met hubby)

    Just starting out (again) but more serious than I have been in last 10 years. I have a very sedentary desk job, so I am trying to get lots of breaks, make my lunch, get at least 5 worksouts in a week, hit yoga at least once. Sick of seeing myself in pictures because "wow I don't feel that fat!"

    Good luck everyone!

    Hi!

    I'm 5'6'
    Heaviest Prior to MFP: 175-180 (back in 2006 ... kinda weird for me to admit these days)
    CW: ~134
    Goal : around 130... really just trying to lose the stubborn fat.
    Struggling to lose any type of weight/inches though, maybe lost .5 at the waist and .5 of a pound since May :sad: .. it'd be great to find others to stay motivated...feel free to add me. :)

    We're close!
    I'm 5'7
    Heaviest weight was 148?
    CW: 136
    Goal: 133?

    I'm just trying to focus on my strength and fitness levels! Going on holiday Saturday so we'll see what happens...:)

    Hey I'm a twin too!!!!

    GW: 127ish

    I've been fat almost my whole life. So my body now is the thinnest I've ever been. So I'm not sure what 127 would look like on me. I'm sorta tall, but my body frame is kinda small. I think I could pull it off but I'd be thin. Like a size 2 thin. Right now I'm like a 6. Maaaybe a 4 if it's a dress

    Maybe I will find a tall/thick twin?

    Age: 31
    Height: 5'11'' (nearly 6 ft as I am actually 5'11.5")
    HW: 208 lbs (39 weeks pregnant)
    CW: 190 lbs
    LW: 135 lbs (high school and ED)
    Goal: 155 to 160 lbs

    I have started lifted regularly over the last four weeks and I LOVE it.
    I travel weekly for work (I am the primary bread winner) and I have a 3.5 y.o. daughter.
    I gained a lot of weight with my current career.
    I am trying to find balance and improve meal prep (which is hard with 2-4 overnights per week).



    We're nearly twins! I'm 6'0,
    Age: 38
    HW: 210
    CW: 182
    LW: not sure, took weight loss pills once and got down to size 8...I was a bobble head
    Goal: 155-160

    I'm taking a break from weights and HIIT right now because my workout partner has a pinched nerve. Currently we're walking an hour a day M-F and I'm doing C25K on my own, running 3-4 times a week. I just started logging my food on MFP about two weeks ago and it's really keeping me accountable.

    I like to eat healthy and exercise and when I'm doing well I exercise 3-5 days a week and I eat very healthy. I go through these periods where I'm stressed at work, busy and tired. I'm in that rut right now and am at the higher end of my weight. I need to get the momentum to get back to exercising and eating health. want to get back down to at least 140.

    Twins welcome :smiley:

    I'm currently eating around 1800-1900 cals a day, focusing on protein and healthy carbs. (This has been working for me better than focusing on 1200 cals)
    I try to work out at least 5 days/week

Seeing progress on scales and on my stomach but the stubborn lower ab jiggle just ain't budging! I work in a restaurant on the weekends so they are the days I'll typically cheat on my diet.

    If you want to stay in touch friend me. I'd love to have someone to chat to about all this x

    CW: 135

    I don't have a very big frame so I definitely feel and look better closer to 125-130. I run 3x/week, take a spin class 3x/week and try to walk where I can most days. Staying consistent with my food is my biggest challenge...

    GW: 145 has been my big goal since I was 216, but I think I'd ultimately like to be 135.

    I carry all of my weight in my lower half so I have big legs but not much in the midsection, just a little bit of pooch/muffin top, but I think 135 would be ideal for the legs I want :smile:
