Hi, hi, and hi :)

Stats: SW:203 CW:186

I'm new to myfitnesspal and would like to make some friends with other ladies who have similar stats to me!

My initial goal weight was :120-125lbs but I think 128-140lbs is ok. I would like to lose between 50-60lbs before August.. Ambitious but doable! I just don't want to be the fat girl I the office.

I currently wear a UK size 14/16

    Hi!! I would love to be friends! Doesn't 203lbs seem so far away now? Whenever I look at my goal weight and I realise that I don't need to lose 80lbs+ because I'm not 200+ my heart skips a beat!!! We've come so far.

    Hi! I started at 200 after giving birth to my son, and am at 183 now. I got down to 112 several years ago with MFP, but aiming for around 125-130 this time. 5'4 as well :)

    Your final goal will depend on a number of factors.

    What is your frame?
    Are doing any strength training?
    Will you be happier transitioning to maintenance as soon as you are a healthy weight or continuing on until you have a certain kind of body?
    What size are your boobs?

    Hi. I'm 5'4. I started in June at 194 and am now 176. I am quite sure I won't lose 50 lbs by August. I'll be happy with another 15 since my average is 3 pounds a month.

    Hi! Started at 215 a looong time ago. Got down to 135 before joining MFP. Joined and got down to 115 (US size 0, even 100 pounds lost!). Didn't like it so I did a body recomp and found my happy spot at 120, 16% BF (US size 2/UK size 6).

    Started a new my dream job about 2 years ago and pick up 30 pounds. I realized I can't eat like I train 6 days a week, 1.5 hours a day if I don't actually! I'm trying to get back to 120 by finding what works for me (and my career) now.

    CW (a week ago): 145 (weighed myself the day I got back from a 8 day, 4 island cruise to the Bahamas. Yikes!), US size 4/UK size 8
    GW:120, US size 2

    I'm 5'3, with no idea on a final goal weight as I genuinely do not know what looks good on my body! I have never been 'skinny'. I have a large frame so even though I'm short, I can carry weight a bit better.

    CW: 166.6

    Hoping to get to 145 by Mid-June. It's probably unrealistic, but I'll be happy with a pound a week, which is another 14 pounds down. That would put me around 152.

    Just want to look the best I can for my future husband at our wedding in August!

    I'm 5'4". I started at 179 lbs and currently 154. My ultimate goal is 125 lbs. I will be happy to be below 145 though. I don't have a deadline.

    5'4 here.
    Like Lounmoun, I started at 179!
    Currently at 158, with an ultimate goal of 135-130.
    No real deadline; this is for life. But I'm kind of hoping to be at 150 by my doctor's appointment in the end of May. (My doctor gave up on me losing the weight, and at my last appointment, after explaining that my cholesterol was high, said, "At least you haven't gained any more weight this year." but that he wanted to put me on meds for my blood pressure and cholesterol. I told him I could fix it, but it was clear he didn't believe me. :)

    The numbers can fluctuate as long as I'm working out hard and have good muscle tone- I can be and have been happy between 120-130.

    Hi! I'm 5'0'' I've been hovering around 185 for a while and would like to get down to 140. At that point I'll reassess and decide if I want to lose more. I am sending you a friend request. Congrats on your current success and good luck with the rest of your journey!

    • 5'3.5" but I usually just go with 5'3"
    • Starting weight was 139 pounds.
    • Got down to 109 pounds in February and now I'm bulking for a while up to 118 pounds before I do a final cut. I'm 113 pounds right now.
    • My final goal weight after my next cut is somewhere between 105 and 110 pounds.

    I'm 5'4" (and a half haha). I started at 250 but have been as low as 125. I've spent most of my adult/teenage life between 135-150. Right now I'm 210. My ultimate goal is 125 but the last weight I remember feeling confident and getting lots of compliments at was 175 so I will be happy even when I get there! Feel free to add me if you want!

    Oh, and I've been losing on average 1 - 1.5 lbs per week for the past eight months. I expect to be at 175 by this fall and goal weight by next fall.

    Hi I'm 5'4"

    I've been as high as 180 or so.
    SW with MFP: 163
    Lowest weight: 128
    Current weight: 142

    I was very small at 128. I kept a lot of muscle by weight training in a deficit. I have actually been bulking over the past 4-5 months and that is why I am as heavy as 142. My profile picture is current. I will probably cut back down to 130-135. Most likely 135 though. I find that the more muscle you have, you don't need to go quite as low as far as scale weight to look well/lean.

    i'M 5'3" (and a half, the half is very important)

    SW: 213 (I was a blimp)
    CW: 157
    GW: 140

    Once I get to 140 I'll assess but I have been 147 before and I loved my body at that weight so I doubt I will want to go lower than that.

    I am also taking all of the weight stuff with a pinch of salt these days as I really want to get fitter. I know that this, coupled with eating a deficit, will see me lose so I am not over thinking too much!

    Hi all!
    I'm 5'3 and a half.
    I started in August and now I'm down about 50 pounds. I really want to get down to 140 and see how I feel from there. I have been overweight/obese through my teen years so I'm really excited to see how my body changes as I keep losing. Feel free to add me! I would love to have more friends that are around my height!
    Also, I'm in college so it's kind of tough doing this with dining hall food so other college peeps should add me too!

    SW: 227 (August)
