    as a tall woman who always could carry a LOT of extra weight, I would put your beginning weight in the 190-220 range , 2nd set of pix in the 140-150 range

    Since you're super tall I'm going with 153lbs in your most recent pic

    I'm curious as to why it matters to you? You have made big changes and you look really good! Does it really matter what a bunch of "strangers" on the internet think you weigh? How do you feel?

    My friend and i were discussing whether or not people can look at a picture and determine weights? It kind of matters to me, based on my current goal feeling so far away. But if i feel as though i look that weight, it wont he so bad.
    Im rambling terribly =p but for now this is just for the purpose of a curious mind.

    I'd say the first anywhere from 175-185 lbs and the second anywhere from 155 lbs-168 lbs.

    I would say around 150? It's easier to predict bmi by looking at pictures, but since you provided your height, it makes it a lot easier to predict the weight. I really just hope I didn't predict to high :/

    I would say....150-170. Which is great for your height! I only can dream of getting back there (I'm 5'10"). You have done good work; in the second pic your midsection is much slimmer. So, don't forget what you have done. The scale isn't always the best indicator (I bet you have gone down at a couple of sizes in your pants for sure!).

    think you look a lot like I looked around 165 so... adding maybe 10 lbs for the extra height .. I'd GUESS 175?? ((in the second set of pics...and guessing 30-40 lbs heavier in the first set))

    you look gorgeous BTW

    In my experience most people are terrible at judging a woman's weight. I think they get an idea of what a certain number means, and that idea often has no bearing on reality.

    If you haven't yet, check out mybodygallery.com for pictures of other women your height at a variety of different weights.

    Because of your (enviable!) height, I'd say 195 and 170? Whatever it is, you're looking great!

    The newest pic I'd put you at low 170's

    I would say mid 160's to 170 in the second set. Because you are tall. I think it's quite possible that you could be heavier. Trying to compare myself to you, when I am 5'6"!! lol

    So what's the answer?

    I always had people think that I was MUCH lighter than what I really was. Even when I started MFP in January a couple of colleagues just could NOT believe that I was 178. You'd have thought that I said 400 pounds, they have such a skewed perspective of weight, as do a lot of people.

    Your ticker says 84 lbs lost and if you started at 207 you would be at 123 now.
