Any TALL women starting at 200+ successes??

Hey guys I am 6'1" and I started out a little over 200. I was just wondering if there were any other tall ladies out there who have made it?

    I am 5'10" and I started at 252. I am currently 182. :) A few more pounds to lose, but being under 200 was one of my major goals. I weighed 203 in high school which was over 11 years ago. So even though I am no at a final weight I am very happy with my progress. :) Congrats to all of you on your journeys so far!

    Hello! I am 6 ft 1.5, I started at 226, and am down to 203.4, planning to get to 180. It has been slow and steady - quite literally about a pound per week, but these last 4 weeks I haven't budged, but I am pushing through! You can do it, trust the process and read some success stories every day! Friend me if you'd like!

    Hi there!

    I am 6'0, and I started last summer here at about 238. I left MFP due to stress and lost about 20 or so on my own. I've been back here for 2 months and I'm hovering right at 200 now! I'd like to get down to about 165lbs, but depending on how I look I may stop at 170 or go down to 160.

    Welcome aboard!

    I'm 5' 10" and started at 221, and am now at 145, down 75+ pounds. I also turned 50 this year, too, so I'm very pleased that I'm probably the thinnest (and feel like the healthiest) I've ever been!!!

    I am 6' and started this year at 219 lb. I am down 9 pounds and will work to 180 lb. I will assess myself at 180 if I need to lose more. I've been losing about 2 lbs per week. I started about 4 weeks ago. I've never been so determined in my life to lose weight! Why? Because I was always slim until about 7 years ago!!! I feel soooo good with the 9lbs off already!!! Let's keep in touch!:laugh: :laugh:
