Almost done! I've still got a tummy pooch and I'm not bikini ready yet, but I'm getting close! I couldn't have done it without MFP!

    You look great! I'm also 5'7, and started out at about 171, so it's great to see comparison pics of someone else my height and near my starting weight :)

    Awesome! And thank you, because I am the same height and goal weight as you (just started at 177 rather than 167) so it shows me to keep going :)

    You look amazing! Well done! I bet you aren't giving yourself enough credit. I'm guessing you could totally pull off a bikini!

    You look great! I'm the same height and started at 165 and am slowly going down but am at 159 now. I'd like to get down to 140. Any Advice?
  • I just joined MFP last Wednesday. I am 5'7" and started at 165, so your success is wonderful motivation for me. Thank you!

    Thank you so much, everyone! I just love this place - everyone so kind and supportive! Thanks for the extra motivation to help me reach my goal! :)

    I may not be the best person to give advice. I lost the first 22 pounds by simply dieting - hardly any exercise except for a few dog walks every now and then. I stuck to my 1200 calories religiously and logged EVERYTHING. I did not cheat. It actually came off pretty easily as long as I was diligent about my 1200 calories. I fell off the wagon over the holidays and gained about 5 pounds back from Thanksgiving to New Years - I tried counting calories again but it wasn't working, so I switched to Atkins and it's been working wonderfully. Again, I'm just really diligent about what I put in my mouth and logging and counting everything. =)

    My goal is 130, too! :) My motivation comes from always being "the tall skinny girl" my whole life, and then one day I realized I no longer fit that description! I hated being "the fat one" in photos of me and my friends!

    Congratulations!

    It's great to visually see where you've got to, especially as I'm just starting and similar height to you - as pretty much everyone in this thread seems to be!! I'm just shy of 5'8", started at 190lbs and aiming to get back to being c126lbs, just 4lbs down so far, but it really helps to see other people winning too.

    Thank you for sharing, look forward to seeing your next goal met!
