    Hi Everyone!!

    I'm 5'5
    HW: 168
    CW: 122
    GW:117

    My journey started about a year ago... progress has been slow but steady... total lifestyle change! The hardest part was taking control over my emotional eating.

    My initial goal weight was 125 but once I got there, I decided I could still go a little lower... I want abs!!! :)

    I dont know how to post photos (LoL) but there are some on my profile!!! (I was 130 in my profile picture)

    Hello all! I'm also a 5'5" gal!!! I don't have any pictures loaded yet. I started my weightloss journey on May 28, 2011.

    SW: 257.5
    CW: 241.6
    GW: 160

    Like others, I don't kow if I will stay at 160 or if I want to go lower. I'll decide that when I get to 160.

    Isn't it amazing what a difference big-boned / small-bones makes? I'm just under 5'5", and even at only 120lbs I have a belly. Some people at the same height and 150lbs have a lovely flat tum! I'm here to tone up, and turn some of the wobbly bits to muscle. I'm in week 2 of Ripped in 30, and took some pics before, so will post pics once i'm done. I want a 6 packs and some lovely defined shoulders!!! And a waist if i'm really lucky ;)

    It's not about being "thin" it's about being "healthy!" Whatever you feel best at is where you should be :).

    Well, I'm closer to 5'6" but I'll play. Amazing to see everyone's progress! I just started last week, so no pics yet (my dh keeps telling me I need to take a "before" picture in my workout clothes but I haven't yet). But here are my stats.

    SW: 177 (7/30)
    CW: 170
    GW: 140/135?

    I have six year old twins and I finally decided I can't blame my weight on having twins after six years :)

    Can someone tell me how to set it so I can follow specific threads? There's so much activity on MFP that it's hard to go back and find threads you're interested in!

    Thanks

    I'm 5'5" and down 11lbs in a little over 14 weeks (142 to 131). I lost about 4% body fat and 5 inches (combined) off my hips and thighs. I am like a size 8 on the bottom and a size 4 on top though (buying strapless dresses is a challenge...) My goal is 129 but I'm basically in maintenance now.

    I have no "before" pics... I make people delete them. Maybe I should take one today. Thanks for the idea!

    HEY, it's 5' 5" set -- YAY!
    Unfortunately, my before photos are just random photos from last year, so hard to tell progress, but feel free to look on my profile.

    I went up to 200 lbs. w/each pregnancy, and tried to go back down below 150 after each one, but couldn't quite get there or stay there. I started MFP about 3 months ago:

    SW: 148
    CW: 137.6
    GW: I thought it was 138, but I'd like to get to 135 now that I've seen progress!

    Hugs to all you girls!

    It's nice to see that a lot of you have similar goals as I do. I guess I'm bigger boned because the smallest I have ever been as an adult was 128 and that was pretty darn small for me and my boobs were almost completely gone and frankly I like having at least a little boob!
