It's pretty astonishing to see how much people differ in size and shape at similar weights, so it really does differ from person to person. Some of the women my height (6'1" ish) look thinner at 230 than those who are 180. I would use this site as a tool to see how different we all are- not as 'i will look like that at 170...'.

Although the person who is 100lbs at 6'1" is shocking!!! That would give her a BMI of 13!!

This was me at my heaviest and where I am today. I am 5'9 and have an athletic build Hoping to get to 147!!

That's a pretty awesome transformation! How are you feeling as you get closer to your goal?

Hi Ladies,

I'm 5'9" and I was 199 when I started my weight loss journey in August of 2009. By the time Summer 2010 rolled around, I had gotten down to about 158-159. Right now I'm 168 and trying to get back between 155-160. Anywho... here are my before and after pics. The before is in Nov 2009 (199) and the second is in Oct 2010 (about 158/159).

You look GREAT!!!! Go girl!

Wooo tall ladies thread! Don't have any pics handy but I am:

5'9"
CW: 162
HW ever: 182
starting on MFP: 168ish
Frame: Hourglass, but with some muscles goin' on

Ultimate goal weight is 145 but because I have muscles I think I'd be happy with anything under 150

I'm 5'11". I have always been in a "healthy weight range"... BUT I put on weight right in my lower stomach, so it looks like a pregnant belly. I have a daughter but had lost all my weight after I had her. Then from eating however I wanted to eat and never exercising I gained and was so unhappy. I could even really tell it in my face, and especially in my clothes. I went up two sizes. I started MFP last Feb. and lost 25 lbs total to get to 134. That was a really "skinny" weight for me and it's where I want to be again (I'm only 140 currently but I've got a dang pooch and can tell in other areas that I've gained weight or am retaining water). Really, the weight isnt the biggest thing to me... it's not having that pooch, and feeling like I look good in clothes/bathing suits... so I need to focus more on less soda, more water, and exercising.

SW: 160
GW: 135ish
Age 25
hourglass shape

I am so glad there are a lot of people looking to have the same goals as me. I am 5'9 and 233. My goal is to be around 170. Once I hit that, I will reassess! Would love to be friends with anyone looking for support to do the same!

Bump...5'10" large frame with GW around 160!
