  • GREAT idea for a topic!!! I'm a little over 5'9" (I know, a wee bit shorter, but still a tall girl), and I have pics of me at all different weights (and hair colors) on my profile. Please add me if you want a compadre here!

    Highest weight (right after I had my daugther Lucy in 2009): 250
    Lowest weight (2005): 135 --- waaaay too small for me
    Healthiest weight (2006): 145 -- when I met my awesome hubby
    GOAL: 145 again!!!
  • Oh CW: 190

    I'm 5'10" so just bumping this to come back and look at. Thanks for sharing.
  • So happy I just stumbled across this thread as it's given me the kick up the bum I needed!

    I'm 5'11" and currently weigh 204lbs. When I first started my weight loss journey (but pre-MFP) I was 265lbs and had just had my first baby. He's now 16 months and I didn't really attempt to lose any of the weight until early 2011 so I guess I've kept a slow and steady pace for the past year.

    For a while now though I've sort of plateaued at the 205 mark but I really want to drop to about 180lbs this year. The before & after photos on here are such an inspiration, so I am going to plough on!

    Well done to you all and good luck to everyone still on their road to goal weight! x

    You look great! Truly an inspiration to me:-) I'm also 5'8", but still at my starting weight (151.5). I'm wanting to get down to a toned 135.

    Can I ask how long it took you and what your workout schedule looked like? Thanks!

    I'm actually at like 134 right now. 130 was really hard for me to maintain at, but I just run a lot and lift, but thats it really.

    That before picture was from March 2010 and the After is from September 2011... it didn't take me a year and a half with MFP tho. I started MFP when I was 145 and I got down to 130 in 3 months

    You might look like my 130 at 145 or 150... You really never know. I have a really small frame. My wrist measures 5.4 inches and I my ring size is a size 5

    Great post! I am 5ft 11.. No after pics yet, I just started.
    My highest weight ever was about 220 after my 1st son was born. I would lose weight, get pregnant, lose weight, get pregnant!
    My lowest weight about 3 years ago was 155. I would like to get back there. I just got remarried and we have eaten ourselves happy these past few years! ;) I am about 176ish right now...
  • Awesome topic!! Was wondering where I should set my goal at and I think I'm right on target for it being 160 lbs for 5'11". No pics to show since I just started a couple months ago. Hopefully I'll have some great pictures to post later this year. No time line... Just taking it slow and one day at a time. Would love some friends!!

    firstly, this thread is AH-MAY-ZING! it's so nice to hear numbers (both weight AND height) that are closer to my reality!

    i was heavy in high school (in the 190s), and dropped about 30 pounds in college. i maintained that for a long time, and got married in 2006 looking, dare i say, good, at 164.

    i dislocated my knee in 2010 and milked my recovery period for entirely too long. i packed on the pounds that summer, and when i stepped on the scale in august after avoiding it for months, i was shocked to see an additional 14 pounds. i FREAKED OUT!

    i got my *kitten* back on the wagon with MFP and lost all that weight last year. so here's me back at 164, august 2011:

    i put a bit back on, and i'm at 172 right now. i'm hoping to get back to that wedding weight and STAY THERE!

    ETA: having a lot of trouble loading photos right now. will try again tomorrow/later!

    5'11" here and glad to know that others my height have similar goals. When I weighed 154 I looked great and was in the best shape of my life. Starting over and need to lose about 50-60 lbs. Would love to have other tall friends on here. Add me please.

    So glad I found this thread!!! I am 5'11" and my goal is to get to 170 and be toned. I currently weigh 193 since packing on 4 lbs over the holidays. Short term, I'd like to get to 180 by my birthday in March.

    5'11" and glad to see women weighin in at 170+ and looking amazing! I was always discouraged by everyone saying I should weigh 140. I've been there and that was WAY too thin! Just starting out but I'm looking forward to posting my own B&A next year!

    I weighed 140 in high school and people thought I had an eating disorder and my head looked huge on my body!
  • I love that you have made this subject! I am 5"9 and my goal weight is 180pounds! I am currently sitting at 230!!! By the way...many of you ladies look absolutely wonderful at 180+!!!
