    I'm 5'10" and my HW was 222 when I started MFP. I'm at about 188 right now and not sure how low to go. My original GW was 160, but I might be okay with something around 170. I just want to start toning and being a bit less lumpy! And I'm from Pittsburgh. Go Steelers!

    DC-area TallGirl here! I'm 5'11"... Started out near 270 last year. Down to 240 now. Aiming for the 150 range, but we'll see how it goes (I cant' remember when I was that small!)

    I'd love to have some tall friends on the journey. Feel free to add me! :)

    I'm 5'10" and starting at 285 pounds. My goal weight is 160 - 170, depending on how I look and feel once I get to that point. I have a large frame, and I feel like I might look too thin at anything less than 160. Idk though, I've been heavy my entire adult life. We'll see, I guess. :)

    Feel free to add me as a friend if you'd like!

    YAY for tall girls!

    I'm 5'11 CW 226, GW about 185. I'm not too sticky about my weight though, for me it's more about fitness. I just want to feel good in that regard again. At about 185 I'm a size 10/12, and more than happy with that.

    I have a fairly large frame, but I have friends around the same height that have much smaller bone structure and they look great and are very healthy at 145lbs.

    I'm 5'10 and was 196lbs at my heaviest (bmi of 28.12). Am currently 186lbs. Have a target of 174lbs which would put me into the 'normal weight' category, then a longer term goal of 155lbs. I quite broad in my build so don't think I would suit being any lighter than that.

    Finally! It is so nice to find validation that my goals are not out to lunch!
    I am 5'10 SW 306: CW: 249.8 First Goal: 200
    feels like a loooooooong way. I am hoping that after I prove to myself that I can handle that then it will click even more.
    Ultimate Goal I am thinking between 175 and 185.

    5'10", currently 205, with a goal weight of about 150. I'm in Kansas City, MO.

    I weighed 135-140 in high school, and the pictures make me cringe. I look emaciated. :P

    Hoping 150 will be a good "stopping point", if I can ever get down there! It seems so far away sometimes.

    I'm 5'11" and my starting weight was 196. I'm now at 177 lb and I don't want to drop below 163-165 lb (that's when I remember feeling balanced between having curves and being trim). I'm really aiming to be between a size 8 and 10 and being strong and fit, rather than a number on a scale.

    And there is a tall girl forum: http://www.myfitnesspal.com/forums/show/126-tall-women

    I'm in Denver metro area in Colorado. Feel free to friend me!

    Halfway between 5'10" and 5"11" here, but I round up. :) I have a goal size and measurements instead of a goal weight, but I want to get back to a size 6 and know from experience that I need to be in the 150 range to do so. Currently, I'm 175 (at least the last time I weighed in February) and a kinda loose 12/slightly too tight 10. I have a small frame and 175 is too much. I even developed a small double chin when I drifted into the 170s. Ugh. Talk about motivation to stop being lazy.

    I saw this post and thought I would add my reply! I am 6'2 and started out at 320, now down to 295 and hope to get down to 200? I have honestly NEVER been thin, so I have no idea what goal weight I want to get down to. I am thinking 180-200.

    Hey! I'm 5ft 11 and I don't have too much too much to lose I suppose considering some others on here but I am currently 70kgs (156lbs) and I am aiming to get down to 60kgs (132lbs). Definitely different goals when your taller but it all evens out in the end. S nice to see so many other tall girls on here though!

    I'm 162 at the moment and I am aiming for 147. I want to be AUS size 10 pants (uk 8, us 6)

    Holly do you know at 60kg you will be considered underweight? Do you have small bones? My friend is 6ft 1 tp 6ft 2 and she is 56kg, her body just won't carry any more weight than that and her hips are tiny
