    5'7"
    Highest weight-231
    Current weight- 182
    Lowest weight- 145

    It's entirely possible. I got to my goal, then tried to maintain without mfp right away. 2 1/2 years later I found myself almost back where I started. Now I'm getting back to goal and staying there.

    You can do this.

    My stats/goals:
    Height - 5'4.5"
    Highest adult weight - 260 lbs
    Goal 1 - 130 lbs to 135 lbs
    Current weight - 121 to 123 lbs (Trendweight is 122.4 lbs currently)
    Goal 2 - ?
    I say question mark because I'm not sure. I am debating trying to cut a bit more and maybe get my Trendweight down to 118 lbs or just starting a recomposition. I did try my hand at maintaining over the holidays and still ended up losing about 2 lbs. Then January came and I f%*$/# up big time; causing my trend to go up 1lb and say I was on the path to gaining 1 lb per week. Spent Feb, fixing that and now I'm just not sure which route to take.

    It's been about 4 years now.
    My first year was a mess and full of mistakes. I gained some of the weight I had lost back.(2012)
    My second year was going pretty smoothly. I found out I was pregnant the fall of that year. Put a bit of a hold on things.(2013)
    My third year went smoothly. I was able to start working on my weight that summer and was back to pre-pregnancy by 6/7 months post partum plus a bit more before the year was over. (2014)
    My fourth year, I joined a gym for the first time in years and met my first goal that fall. I attempted to maintain over the holidays, but continued to lose slowly. (2015)
    And now I'm starting year 5 which did get off to a bad start, but I have corrected it and am just trying to make up my mind on what to do next.

    My initial goal weight was 133. I got there and kept going to just under 130 and decided to go with 130 as my maintenance weight and shift to recomp. Start weight was 153.4; my highest non-pg weight was 161.

    Oh and my height is 5'7". Small bone structure, not much muscle but I'm working on that with the recomp.

    5ft 6
    SW at New Year was 174
    CW 143
    Original goal weight 139
    New GW 136
    136 is according to those medical charts in the UK the mid-point of perfect weight for this height and medium frame also still got fat around tummy and hips so started bodyweight lifting at home to help! Very excited about getting these last few pounds off as never been so slim since my early 20's

    Height: 5ft5 (167cm)
    SW this Jan: 190lb (86 Kg) Have been over 200lb (90Kg) before.
    CW: 168lb (76.5 Kg)
    GW: was 143lb (65 Kg) initially but am now thinking I would love to go down to 132lb (60Kg)

    Have previously lost weight to where I currently am, but would then return to bad habits - was always just so happy to be closer to normal weight than obesity that I would start to slack off.

    I haven't been below 75Kg since my teens. This time I am trying to do things correctly - full lifestyle change, and have lots of support from my family, so I'm certain that GW will be reached (and then maintained) this time around!
