5'9" CW 180lbs GW 140lbs, is anyone else in the same boat?

Really need to get to my 140lbs target by the 1st of October, i want my final year at university to be the best one! If anyone else is in a similar position to me or is of similar stats please feel free to add me. I hope to be pretty vocal on this site, so i'll look forwards to some healthy contributions.
Good luck!
Esther

    I'm in the exact same boat! 5'9.5" (yes, I'll take the 1/2 inch!), CW=181. GW=140. I know it is doable, I was just under 140 about 6 years ago.

    Do you have a timeline in mind for reaching your goal?

    I'm same CW and GW as you but two inches shorter. 5'7". Just started last week and am down a pound. Could use some support too as I have a hard time staying motivated.

    Hi to all the tall ladies, Just wanted to tell you that you can def make it to 140. I'm 5'9" as well and 140 is a great goal weight. I've maintained between 135 - 145 for about 14 years now. I was a lot heavier when I was younger.

    I am 5 9.5 and currently weigh 185... (start weight was 242) Goal weight is 170 lbs, because it puts me at a healthy BMI. But I plan on continuing to lose weight/gain muscle beyond that amount.
  • im 5'9 and currently 165. my gw is 140
  • Pretty close... 5'7" CW 160lbs GW 130lbs

    Seems there are a number of us in the same boat!!
  • Hi guys!! I just started today and have the same goal!! Let's do this!!!

    CW 185
    GW 140
  • count me in!

    I started at 165 pounds and am now 159. I too am about 5 ft 9. It's slow going - and the weather is just starting to get cold over here so I want to eat lots : )

    It's great to track others and be part of a community of people all motivating each other to succeed. I want to lose this pretty bad - I've always been just a bit too heavy .. so here goes!

    I'm 45 - anyone want to be my friend?

  • I'm 5'9'' my current weight is 192 and 140 is probably my goal weight, would like to get to it by the end of the year although I'm struggling as my weight loss has been majorly slow with lots of plateaus so could do with any moral support :) I've never given up and don't plan to no matter how long it takes I will get there!!

    Why that comment???What are you referring to? From what i can see, it sounds like all the responders here definitely are doing this for themselves!!
