Woman that are 5'9 or around this

I'm a little bit taller then that at 5'11. 5'11 and 262 pounds. I wear a pants size 18. My goal is to get down to 190. Same problems though. Abs and love handles.

5'9, Started at 180... Currently weigh roughly 150. Started out at a size 10, now wear a size 4.

Biggest tip I can give you is start weight training now... Do not wait! I credit that, combined with cardio and MFP for making me the size that I am currently.

I'm 5'9". My latest base weight was about 180. I had a tumor in my foot for two years that ended up putting me in bed for 6 months til a good dr figured out it was a very rare bone cancer and I had to have my leg amputated just below the knee. Because of all this I really don't know my weight for mist of the oast 2 yrs, but looking at myself in my cousin's wedding photos from a little over a year before the BKA I look like I weigh over 200lbs, but i must have just looked so bad because of the cancer cuz my jeans were still a size 14 and before the surgery I weighed about 186 I think. Since chemo was real strong eating a drinking were almost stopped, at one point in the hosp I didn't eat for a week and a half, only had normal saline drip, I lost about 60 lbs. Then I was slowly gaining some weight back and when I was about 140 I didn't get weighed for 2 months and weighed 164 at the dr. So I stopped all the junk I was eating but to my shock I gained another 5 lbs in the next month. So I went back to weight watchers and for over 2 months didn't lose, but gained almost 1 more lb. When I was looking for some nutrition info I found this wonderful site and I've been logging for almost 2 weeks. I really would like to lose weight, right now goal is 150 but I'm not sure that will be the end. I don't have actual jeans cuz I can't get them on with my prostic leg but for Christmas the family bought me medium (8-10) sweat type pants, but those can stretch so I'm not sure of my size. For my goal I think I would like to be an 8 or smaller. I'm in pain everyday from my leg and this has all made my back (2 disk) problems worse so i spend most of my time in bed. I'm going to try some stretches and some light arm weights. Last week at my pain dr he said thus was probably going to be my life, but we have one more thing to try which r medtronic stimulators. If my ins ok's the surgery and it's a sucres I ahold be able to move more and that will help burn calories. According to this site I get 1200 calories a day. Sorry this is so long, lots of info given. Feel free to add me as a friend if you'd like. Good luck. Oh, I don't think I put my last weight at the dr, it was 169.4 I think.

I am 5'9ish. I am currently 189 and I started out at 192. My goal is 155 although it's not a must. Before my kids, I was 150ish and I was happy there. I wear a 13-14pants size and I don't really have a "goal size", I just want my clothes to fit better! My trouble areas are of course my stomach/love handles and my inner thighs, I am having the worst time getting those to slim down.

5'8
SW: 251
CW: 230
GW: 160

I don't even really know my pant size right now, I currently own a pair of 16's and 14's which are both slightly baggy on me, and also a pair of size 14's that I can't do up, so yeah, no clue lol. Hoping to fit a size 9/10 at goal.

Honestly the most affective way to lose fat. Is by keeping the carbs and fats low. Bump up the protein and keep to a lower calorie diet that gives you enough energy to where you don't feel sleepy. I lost 14 pounds in a few weeks by following the exact things I am telling you. When I was searching for ways to lose love handles fast I came across www.fastwaystoloselovehandles.com and it had all of the tips that I am telling you there in great detail. You must also stay consistent for progress to come. I am sure you will be at your target weight soon!

Good Luck!

Currently a size 16 in jeans with a goal of going back to a 12-14.

I have been plateauing - for the past 4 Months so very frustrated.

I am 5'9 and my start weight was 179.4, now I am at 162. My goal weight is 145 althought I will see how I feel as I get closer to my goal. My husband does not me to be a stick, so I don't want to be too thin. I just have not been a normal weight in so long. I amfeelingmuch better shedding as much weight as I have. Hope this helps, feel free to add me as a friend if you would like!!

So glad to find women on this site who are tall!! I am 5'9" and 194 lbs. I'm a size 14/16 pants and my GW is 155. I might be the outlier though because my trouble areas are my hips, butt and legs and the first place I always lose weight is my stomach! Which is great....but that doesn't help me fit into pants hahaha. Would love to see a taller girl's progress in terms of waist, hip, thigh and calf measurements...

I'm 5'11".
SW - 196 lb
CW - 175 lb
GW - No idea...maybe 165 lb?

I want to be a size 8, currently a size 10. I want to do standard push-ups and pull ups. I want to be strong. I want to run 3 miles without walking. I want to lower my body fat %, but not sure how low (I'm 27% now).

My goals have less to do with the scale at this point. It's harder for me to be concrete about my goals and I'm struggling a little with that.

ETA: Not sure I have any specific problem areas...I'm really working on slimming down by heavy lifting.

I'm 5'9 floating around 155 and 150 currently. I wear a size 9 jeans. problem areas for me would be hips and obliques. my goal is 135 OR fit into a size 6/7 (which i've done before so I know it's not an unreachable or unhealthy goal for me.) I'm pear shaped haha

I am 5'10" starting weight was 180, i am now 138. I am small framed.

My stomach/hip area didn't start to decrease until after I got to my goal. That is when I started lifting heavy.
I was a size 14 and now I am ready to for a size 6. My size 8 pants are too big on me now.
I am really just working reducing my body fat right now. I am getting smaller but not really losing weight anymore. I think this fall I am going to gain some weight to add some muscle on.

5'10 and current size 8; goal size 6 - 8. I am committed to strengthening up my body and staying healthy. I'm not necessarily concerned with the scale while building muscle; I'm more concerned with how my clothes fit and body measurements.

I'm 5'9"
I weigh 135ish at the moment. I cannot seem to lose more than this. I am a distance runner, running 45+ miles per week. I would like to lose more, but it's not really possible!

I started at 160ish. I wear a 0 or 2 in womens. 3 in juniors

it's hard to maintain anything under 140 in my opinion.

I find it interesting where our measurements differ sometimes my starting waist in inches was 36 and now I'm at 33.5 and my starting hips were 38 and now I'm at 36 but I am a size 10-12 jeans not size 8. I also made it a point to add in my butt to my tracking because I want to measure what I lose back there too lol I started that at a 44 and now I'm down an inch there too.

True. Although it's easier to relate to someone close to our height to get an "idea" of targets and sizes, genetics plays a huge role. I have the frame of a linebacker: big bones, wide shoulders (not very blest on the chest size though), very narrow hips and a very small butt. I don't think at the same weight I'd be wearing the same size pants if I was had an hourglass figure.
