    I am amazed at how many tall women are on here - why do I feel like the only female in the world who is over 6ft when there are clearly so many lol!!! I have only started using this site today - am 6ft and a quarter inch (dont forget the quarter! lol) and have about 90-100lbs to lose!! I am fed up of hearing 'well youre tall so you can pull off extra weight' People still say that to me now and I have put on 6 stone!!!! I laughed out loud at the comment about it taking twice as long to notice and your goal weight being most peoples start weight - so true and so funny now that I know there are other people who feel exactly the same.

    Grateful to offer/receive any support atall, still getting to grips with this site and how it works!!

    Wow- we have a LOT in common! I am 6'1" and have a end goal of 120lbs to lose. We have similar starting weight (mine was 295lb), although I am only 2 weeks in and 9lb down. Great to hear there are many others like me out there!
