    5'10. 194lbs currently with a goal of 170lbs (possibly 155 if I feel like it but I have a feeling once I reach a 'healthy weight' I'll lose interest in losing!).

    I started three years ago at 230... lost roughly 40 pounds and then tabled losing and just maintained for three years. hah! I know I can maintain, now I just wanna shed these last 24 pounds.

    I was beginning to feel I was the only one not close to my goal. :embarassed: I am 5'10" and current weight is 287 with a goal of 180. I also have a large frame and was so perfect as a 180lb athlete when I graduated from High School (oh, so long ago) ...and just did not know it. Now almost 20 years later and after learning so much more about who I am, I understand that I cannot be one of those super tall, super skinny girls. I just want to be healthy again!

    It is so comforting to see other women acknowledge that their ideal weight is not 120 or below...that is not do-able for everyone; especially me! Keep up the hard work my Amazon sisters...all women are not short and tiny, but we can all be beautiful at a healthy weight and ANY height!

    5'9 and big frame -- yay for Nordic blood!

    Currently: 154.

    Goal: 145. 140 at the LOWEST. Its pretty much impossible for me to get any lower than that unless I go psycho obsessive with the diet and excercise, but I start to look too thin if I get down near 140.


    I hear you! My bones begin to protrude around the 145 mark. It is unsustainable after 140.

    Since so many are currently around 150-170, I am interested in what kind of calories you guys are eating?? I go back and forth wondering if I am eating too much or not enough.

    Heh, yes. I was 180 at 17 and looking back, I was damn hot! I'll never be a waif, my shoulders are broad enough that no matter how much I lose I won't be able to wear anything under a large t-shirt, and even those I look extremely booby.

    5'9" I have been maintaining between 127 and 130 for a few months. I just started lifting heavy and I want to be about 135ish when I start putting more muscle on.

    Hi all,

    I'm 5'9" and am trying to maintain between 135-140 (I am at 138 right now). Just looking to be toned and drop some inches, rather than weight. I hid my scale and only use my tape measure now. Yay tall girls :drinker:

    I just started using 'myfitnesspal' last week. I'm 5'9 and my starting weight was 153.5... 6 days in and I'm down 4 lbs at 149.5! I'm hoping to get down to 142 which was my wedding weight 5 years ago.

    I'm also 5'10" w/a large frame. My goal is 180 cuz anything less would not suite my frame I don't think. I don't want to go from one extreme of being very over-weight to another extreme of being too thin.
