    I'm 6'1"

    People always assume I'm a good 3 stones (42 pounds) lighter than I am- or even more! I guess I carry the weight well due to my height. At my highest weight I was 23 1/2 stones (330 pounds) :o( and a UK size 28.

    My goal is to get under 200 pounds (14 stone 3) at which I will be a UK size 16.

    My ultimate goal is to be in the healthy BMI range for my height- so 13 stone 7 (189 pounds) which would make me a UK size 14. I have been this weight before and been told I look more like a size 12.

    Still got a long way to go...........

    I'm 5ft 7, I was 12 st 5lbs at my heaviest wearing a UK size 14. I got down to 10st 10 at Xmas and was wearing a size 10. I've crept up to 11 st 6 again and I'm definitely a 12 again. I feel better at the lower weight and would like to reach 10st 7lbs and reassess. I do a fair bit of exercise and weight training, so I'm trying to look at my inch loss rather than weight loss so much, as the scale obsession can be unhealthy and the scale can be a lying *****! :happy:
