    Hey there!

    I'm also 5'10" but I started at ~91kg (I'd actually probably estimate my start weight was 93-4 given the original scales were inaccurate). I'm now already down to 86.8kg after >4weeks. This website/app/system is stupidly good.

    Being taller means results don't manifest visually as fast, but it also means .. we can reach .. things. :bigsmile:

    Good luck, feel free to add me as a friend! I'm currently at about 225, I want to get down to 150! About the same amount of weight to lose there! (Oh, and I'm also 5'10"!)

    feel free to add me too. I am 5'11 started at around 99kg. HAve been dieting for about 7weeks and now weigh 93kg

    The change is difficult to see if you are taller. I still can't see a difference but my measurements are smaller.

    I'd like to be around 160-175, but not sure at the moment.

    Hey there! I am aroundd 5'9'' and started out at 274.4 I started Aug. 1, 2011. So far, I am down 35 pounds! My goal now is to get to 199. Then, I will see how I am feeling, and re-evaluate then. :o) You can do it as long as you keep on track.

    I should probably add I'm aiming for 60kg ultimately (which is 5kg less than my absolute lowest weight).

    Given that I exercise and weight train now, I may re-evaluate as I get closer as my body shape then was probably skinny-fat and perhaps not a good indicator of how I'll look/feel at that weight now.

    but don't you hate not being able to wear high heals very often?! lol i do my hubby is only 1 inch taller than me...if only he was 6ft 5"!!!!

    anyways back to subject,it is very doable...and set yourself little goals and a bigger goal also along the way it really does help alot.

    5'9'' guy here at 251 lbs and trying to get down to 200 first and then eventually lower to what I used to be in undergrad.
    I've been using the site on and off for a couple of months but really started to put it in to full gear for the past couple of weeks and I've lost 4 lbs. I was hoping for more, but a loss is a loss and I'm not complaining.
    After seeing the amazing results from some of you I'm inspired and positive that the rest of us can do it too.
    Gluck to everyone!
