I am 6' tall and have quite a bit of weight to lose... I was hoping to gain some inspiration from some before and after photos if any of you tall beautiful ladies would be kind enough to post them!!!

Cheers,
Heather

    Hey Heather,

    I'm 5'9", but I, unfortunately, don't have any "after" photos, yet. I think it's cool you posted this topic, though. I'd be interested in seeing other taller ladies with success, too.

    So, thanks!

    I am 5'9 - I still have a way to go, but here is an idea of the changes you can expect :-)

    Hi there! I don't really have any official "before" and "after" photos. I am 6'1. On the left, I am at approximately 228. On the right I am at 203.

    My legs and hips are still about the same, I've lost in the waist and my face though.
    It's hard to be a tall lady losing weight. It doesn't really show at first- and it's kind of depressing.

    Well done Eriboo, you look stunning!
    Im also 6ft 1 and have found that for the first time ever the weight is going from my face first (which is nice) so after loosing about half a stone ive already got people saying they can see the difference :)
    I carry all my excess weight around my middle so because im chesty i can hide it quite well btu im looking forward to wearing tight fitting tops again :)

    I'm only 5'9" but I have some clothed before and after pictures in my profile. I'll be finishing up 12 weeks of Turbo Fire in 2.5 weeks and will post more after pictures then.

    Hi! I'm 5'11. My starting weight was 223 (12/28/10), and my current weight is somewhere between 169 and 174. Here are some of my before/after shots. I've posted them before, but I've been in a bit of a slump recently, so I could use the positive reinforcement!

    These are of me and my husband on Christmas 2010 and at my bridal shower in April 2011. Between the two pictures, I lost 41 pounds, and my husband (then fiance) lost 44 pounds!

    I got married on May 28, 2011 at 175 pounds. When I bought my wedding dress in September 2010, I weighed 205 pounds (yes, I gained 18 pounds between September 2010 and December 2010). I bought the sample dress from the store, so the three pictures below are of me in literally the exact same dress. The top left picture is me the day I bought the dress. In the top right picture, the dress has been taken in 4 inches. It was still a little bit big, so the seamstress took it in an additional 1.5" before my wedding (bottom picture).

    I'm 5'11 my pics are posted on my profile. I went from 240 to 200 in those pics. I'm now almost 190 with a goal of 175.

    I'm 5'9 and just started out. I'm currently 275lbs and my ultimate goal is 175...but I would be happy to be at 200. I don't mind being a tall curvy girl...I just need to lose weight to gain back some confidence and be healthier.

    My dad has really high blood pressure and has been in the hospital 3 times since April...it scares me, I don't want to lose him. But I also realize that could be me if I don't lose some weight and change my lifestyle.

    I'm 5'10" and I have gone from 320 to 186...well that is the low anyway, right now I am at 191. The pictures are from about 188 though if you look at my profile picture. There are some before and after pictures in my profile too. Summer has been rough, but I have been back on track the last couple of weeks and gotten a couple of pound off, again!

    I'm 6'0" and have always been self conscious about either my weight or my height. In the last few years, I've learned that tall is beautiful, and that has really helped me get to a better place emotionally. I've been on MFP for around 6 weeks now, but I don't have any pictures yet. I must say, having an encouraging boyfriend who is actually proud of me for making the decision to get healthy has been such a big help.

    I'll see what I can do about the pictures, I should be able to find some floating around my computer somewhere. :)

    Keep posting the pictures! Seeing everyone else's progress is so spectacularly encouraging. :D
