I'm 5'11 and have a large frame. I am looking to lose about 80-100 lbs. My lowest was in HS @ 135 and I was a stick then, so I am looking to try to stay in the 150-170 range (for now). I am currently 247. Ultimate goal of 140.

Any other ladies out there with a large frame as well? If so, what size/weight are you at and/or would like to get to?

    Not sure if I am or not, but my goal weight right now is about 180 as well. I think a lot of tall women are not built to be stick thin. Even at my smallest, I was about a size 10 & I'm totally OK with that. Realistically I could be about a 10-12 at 180 but I don't care so much about the number on the scale as long as I look better.

    If you are too thin up your height seems taller. Not that that's a bad thing but more people seem to comment on your height....

    I'm definitely built bigger. Currently 280, being 180 would be awesome. In high school I was 185 and very fit and looked great in a 12 or 14. Add me!

    5'11" and I'd say I have a large frame...I'm built like a trash can :D I'm looking to get to the 180-170 range current 195. I'll see how I feel I look then and go from there.

    I'm 6'2 and I think my ultimate goal is 200. My thighs and butt carry a lot of weight. I've got a ways to goal and I'm not even sure what I'd look like at 200 but it seems like a good goal.

    I'm 5'11" and I would say I do not have a large frame. I'm currently a bit over 200 pounds, and I was about 130 in high school, although that was a wee bit too thin! LOL When I was doing triathlons regularly, I was about 150, but I'd be very satisfied at 175 or so. That's really what I'm shooting for... or rather, what i've been shooting for for years now. SIGH

    I am 5’ 11” and currently 320. I was 175 in high school before getting pregnant. My lowest weight after my youngest child was born was 210. But I was really stressed out and just not eating. I looked really awesome at 230. I have broad shoulders and large muscles so at that weight I am a curvy goddess. Really want to get back to 240 or 230. My husband likes curvy women so he still tells me I’m beautiful and he wants me to be healthy.

    I'm 5'10" and my frame is on the edge of medium & large. UGW at the moment 150-154 (currently 164), but with a view of recomping to convert some further fat in to muscle to make sure I don't look too skinny. I have been skinny fat before (was about 150lbs) and it looked awful, I looked really gaunt.

    Feel very short compared to all of you lovely tall ladies!

    I’m 5’10 236.6 currently and restarting my fitness journey after a few years of false starts. My goal is 185-190.
