Am I prying to ask what size you are? I am 6 feet and 156 lbs. My goal weight is 145. I am currently a size 6-8 and 38D.
Woot for all the tall girls at MFP! With so many over 5' 10", it's surprising more stores aren't selling talls... :huh:0 -
How tall are you? 5' 9"
What is your weight? 162
What is your build? Medium-curvy (loose size 10)
How much do you workout?
Mon- Soccer
Tue-volleyball
Wed-softball
Thur-rest or ski at night
Fri-rest
Sat - snowboard
Sun-ski or rest
That'll all change soon (winter's over) to add more soccer and biking.
)
On average, I work out or am active 3-4 days a week. I haven't lifted weights in over a year and some day I'll add that back in.
How much do you eat average daily? 1200-1600 a day. Certain days I can eat way more (ski days), but that's not average to me.
I like the way I feel and look at this time, so I'm not worried about losing weight. I realize I can probably stand to lose 5-7 more pounds to be my "happy weight", which I just looked up a few days ago, but I'm not too concerned.
Thanks for posting this. It's nice to see other "talls" goals.
Still can't believe a few are going for such low weights...but based on frame size it does show you can go that low...good luck and be healthy!!0 -
holla tall ladies.
How tall are you? 6'0"
What is your weight? 167
What is your build? somewhere between medium & large
How much do you workout? 3-4 days a week - mostly running and ab work
How much do you eat average daily? between 1300-16000 -
How tall are you? 5'8"
What is your weight? 245
What is your build? large...yeah...let's go with that
How much do you workout? at least 3 times (or so I HOPE)
How much do you eat average daily? 1400/day without exercise, with exercise probably closer to 1800/2000. DAMN...that's a lot compared to most so I may try to cut back. I need to make wiser choices while sitting at my desk at work!
I'm doing at least 30-40mins cardio each time I hit the gym, and alternating days of upper body and lower body strength/circuit training. I also incorporate step areobics, tae bo, Biggest Loser DVDs, and ZUMBA classes when I need variety.0 -

I am almost always a size 6, very rarely a 4. I'm not as "gifted" as you in the ta-tas though!

I went and had a body pod test done (much the same as being weighed in water) and they figured I should be 147 pounds at my BEST weight. I'm 5' 9". On here I read that someone much taller then myself wants to be 120-130 and it doesn't compute. I would assume they are a small frame and not med or large.
I'm must be lame.0 -
You're right. I think that it is lame to make assumptions and comments about personal information that people are sharing. Does it make you feel better about yourself to suggest that those who desired to be 120 pounds are unhealthy just because you want to be heavier than that? Wouldn't it just be a good idea to keep your judgements to yourself rather than posting them and perhaps offending others? I believe that leaving judgements and personal attacks out of discussions that involve very private matters such as weight would lead to a more amicable environment here on MFP.0

If anything, we should know by now that women's bodies come in all sizes.
You can't make assumptions that somebody who is 130 and 5' 10" is leading an unhealthy lifestyle.

Here's what I said:
"Still can't believe a few are going for such low weights...but based on frame size it does show you can go that low...good luck and be healthy!! "
Not sure where I said people were unhealthy or shouldn't go that low. I believe it reads, based on FRAME SIZE you CAN go that low. Hense...good luck and be healthy!
I think you're taking offense to something that you've made up and not what was said.
I also don't think in my statement that I attacked anyone. Sorry if you misread that, but it was not my intent.0 -

You are right and again...I never said that someone was unhealthy in doing so. I said it was based on frame size and that people can go that low.
I do, however, think that people may misread their frame size. You might think you are a large, but are actually a med, or small vs med. It does happens. That's why I went and had the body pod test on me, so I would know for sure, which is also mentioned in my first post. I'm not saying everyone should do it, but I wanted to know. It's better then guessing.0 -
How tall are you? 5'10
What is your weight? 274 (I'm just starting)
What is your build? I don't know since I've been over weight all of my life. My trainers are always surprised at how much I can lift so I like to think under it all I'm muscular. LOL
How much do you workout? Currently it's a struggle to make it 3 x's a week.
How much do you eat average daily? Again, I'm just starting and I seem to make it under 1800 (barely) most days.
I don't have any advice for you but I hope to one day be 170!0 -
Weighinginwithmy02- Looks like you are in a similar position to myself. Good luck!0

Height: 5'9
Weight: 155lbs
Build: Medium
Work out: Run 2x a week and do mild weights at least 1 day a week
Average eating calories: 1200-14000 -
How tall are you? 5'1
What is your weight? 120
What is your build? small frame
How much do you workout? 3-5 I have been doing 4x's mostly
How much do you eat average daily? It depends If I am working out. If I am not my goal is 1200 sometimes I do go over but only by a little. Other than that when I work out I try to aim towards 1400 or my calorie goal of the day; I do intense workouts so if I am hungry and my goal for the day is 1700 I will eat that amount.
My biggest complaint?
- Portion control. I am the worst.
- Because I am so short gaining or loosing 5 lbs is very dramatic. Which stinks!
- I am on birthcontrol so loosing lbs is very hard for me0 -
How tall are you? 5'8"
What is your weight? 133
What is your build? Medium
How much do you workout? Six times a week
How much do you eat average daily? Between 1200-1400 every day.
I did the "happy weight" test. I am almost ten pounds lighter than what it suggests my happy weight is. It said 142 would be my happy weight. I think it's hard to understand why someone would want to be a lower weight without first seeing their bodies. I mean, this is the internet. I would like to be in the high 120's when all is said and done. I'm sure that might sound crazy to some of you. But you didn't see me at 145, and you don't know what I look like now. Weight distribution varies from person to person. Bodies, in general, are different! Someone my height might be 133 lbs and slim and gorgeous. I'm not saying I'm not slim, because I'm finally to the point where I do feel slim. But I still have issues with my little belly pooch and my butt and thighs. I'm also wanting to tone my upper arms. I do ab workouts every single day, and cardio to get rid of that layer of fat that just doesn't want to reveal the abs I've been working so hard on, lol. I would be comfortable in a bathing suit right now, but I wouldn't feel FABULOUS. And I am aiming for fabulous.
For instance, I think RiverRatChick looks phenomenal in her pic! I would love to look like that! But I don't look like that right now, even being as low as 133 lbs.0 -
Height: 6"0"
weight: 213 - aiming for 170
frame: large
workout: I try for at least 4 times a week. Mostly doing treadmill at this point. I throw in Wii Fit stuff almost every day with some resistance bands every once in a while too.
Calories: 1220 + exercise calories
I've only lost 7 pounds so far but I've also lost a total of 7". It's working slowly but surely. I just purchase a Polar F4 this weekend and I'm hoping that will really help me keep better track of my calories burned.0 -
