I was wondering if any of you have transition pictures for the 5'8"-5'"9 range? I'm 5'9" and have seen threads dedicated to girls shorter and taller, but not many in this category! I would love to see what the different weights look at this height. My goal is 160, although I'm thinking I may reavaluate once I (hopefully) make it there one day.

Thanks in advance!

    5'8. Started at 240, now weight 180.

    Also, there is a really long thread (30 pages) for taller women that you can flip through: http://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/discussion/790005/58-511-women-before-after-pics/p1

    I'm 5'9"! My before picture was taken July 2015 at about 215 lbs. My after picture was taken this morning at the gym (what can I say, I was feeling good). I'm currently at 171 and wanting to get down to about 150. zxvx8kaus52y.jpg

    HOLY CRAP! You all look so fantastic!!! I'm 5'9" and was wondering what kind of weight range to shoot for, and seeing your pictures definitely helps.

    What exercise are you doing and how often? Calorie average!

    I do a lot of different workouts... T25, various Jillian Michaels DVDs, BodyPump, and lots and lots of running. I get bored doing the same thing so I rotate through those to keep myself interested. I aim for 1500 calories and only eat some of my exercise calories back if I'm feeling hungry.

    I'm aiming for 160 as well. Looks like a great range for me. You ladies look fantastic.

    You all look amazing. Don't know how to post pics but 5'10". Started at 235 and got down to 152 but felt to thin. Focused on building muscle and getting lean and not worrying so much about the number but how I feel. Maintaining around 160 and feeling fit and fabulous. Feel free to look at before in profile.

    All you ladies have done a great job and just curious as this is from eating a less calorie intake each day and from exercising? Thanks.

    You all look incredible! If I could look like any of you I'd be beyond happy with my transformation. Thank you for the references!

    Can I just say how amazing all of you around 160-170 look?

    I'm 5'8" and looking at all of your pictures is really making me reassess my final goal weight.

    It also makes me feel inspired as I don't have nearly as far to go as I thought. Seriously, you look so good.

    No pics, but I am 5'8". I was ~180 at my highest, after the birth of my 2nd kid. Now down to 167, and I am thinking about 160 will be right. So not a huge picture-worthy weight loss for me. Sometimes 5'8"-5'9" people have goal weights of 140-150 which is just not how my body is built, I would look awful!

    All of you in the 160-170 range look amazing!

    And I will say that my stomach at 167 looks way way way worse than all these great photos! I am blaming the 2 pregnancies for that. I know plenty of moms of more kids than me whose stomachs bounce right back, but not mine!

    This is exactly what I was thinking! My goodness, you all look fabulous, and I would be THRILLED to have bodies like yours!

    I don't know if it posted or not, but here's me; I'm 5'9" left picture is me at 169 and picture on the right is 150, if I remember correctly there was a 5 month difference in the 2 pictures.
