    A decent goal to set. How are you planning to lose the weight? Just through dieting or a fitness regime as well?

    Dieting and working out together! I try to go to the gym on weekdays and go hiking or walking with my dog on pretty trails when it's nice out on weekends !

    I went from 255 to 210 using myfitnesspal over a year ago but gained back 80 pounds due to some circumstances and now I'm struggling to get the motivation to start and stick with it- I decided to get his app again since it helped me so much the first time!

    Well I'm a qualified PT so if I can help in any way feel free to add me. Hope the circumstances that caused that have sorted themselves out now.

    I’m still figuring out how to add buddies - but would love my fellow 6ft beauties to be my buddies in motivation! I also hit a plateau and am trying to regain momentum to get to 180. Currently around 192.

    I'm a 6' mom of 2 beautiful little girls and I'm trying to go from 205 down to 160!! Just about finished nursing my 1 1/2 year old, so I'm ready to tone up this postpartum and overweight body of mine. It's great to hear from other tall ladies and learn their fitness goals! I hope we can help keep each other motivated and focused on our goals
