    I'm 5'4". I have had 3 pregnancies...my last being twins. After delivery I weighed a whopping 220. I breastfed for three weeks and got down to 180 and hovered there for about 10 months when I finally had enough of myself. Here is my before:

    This is my current. I still have about 11lbs more I would like to lose but I have been stuck at this weight for a year and a half so I'm beginning to think that its not possible. I joined MFP back in January I believe to try and help me drop these stubborn pounds...Here's my current :

    I'm 5'6" and lost 67lbs. I've currently reset my ticker because I was in maintenance for about three months. I've been lifting heavy trying to gain muscle definition. Now it's time to lose a bit more to see the progress I've made. I have other picture in my profile. (:

    I am 5'5" and I have lost 46lbs so far. I would ideally like to lose another 10, but I am more interested in firming up right now.

    I have more pics on on profile, so feel free to add me if you would like some friendly support.

    Good luck!

    Me too! I'm 40 yo, 5'5", and just seem to be STUCK around the 170-175 range (173 today, to be exact.) I once got down to 155 for maybe a day by starving myself, but of course jumped right back up (this was several years ago.) I've been on MFP for almost 2 months now and have lost a grand total of about 5 pounds, sigh. I'm not giving up, though! One of these days that weight has GOT to go!!

    I'd love more friends with similar experiences!

    Hey pretty ladies! I've lost around 60 lbs so far. BUT, when I did, I got lazy within the last year. Luckily, I haven't gained anything back, but I'm still not satisfied. I want to lose about 30 more. Add if you would like. I need people that are actually active on this site and take it seriously. My first go'round with losing 60 lbs, my sister needed to lose weight too. I had more to lose than she did. Once she hit her goal, she got to "chill out." Hell, that made me chill out too. Lol. It's easy to lose motivation when you don't have anyone to talk to that is on the same level as you are.

    I'm 5'5'', I started at 159, currently at 132 with a goal of 119, which will give me a bit of room to go up a few lbs when I get to maintaining.

    My main pic is from about 20 months ago when I was 126-128ish.

    There are pics on my profile of me at 157-159ish in December 2011 - I gained about 30lbs between May and December last year.

    The t-shirt pic is from a couple of weeks ago but I haven't lost any more since. My arms look quite slim but I still have a good layer to go from my hips, belly and thighs.

    No friend requests please, I have enough trouble keeping up with friends IRL!
