    I am 5'2 and I have a larger frame...my CW is 150 and my GW is about 130, but my plan is to not focus too much on the scale (which is still a work in progress!) and just try to get fit and healthy. My body seems very resistent to weight loss right now, I was at 146 then went on a week vacation and now I'm back to where I started :( Not sure if that sounds similar to you, but feel free to add me. I need all the support I can get!

I'm working towards 140 -150. I've got definitely

    I've got quite a way to go but will definitely work with my doctor when I start to feel that I'm nearing where I think I should be.

    Wow I think I have found my MFP twin haha
    I am 5'4 and borderline "large-frame"
    SW 180lbs
    GW 140-135lbs

    Edit: I have never not been overweight, except as a child. This is really my first serious attempt at weight loss, seems to be going alright.
