    Me :) I weigh 186, and wanna get down to about 160. I think...

    I don't look like I weigh what I weigh so I'm not really sure how much weight to lose, i'll just stop when I'm happy i guess. **** what the scale says.

    5'10" and 156 here. Aiming to be under 150. There's a whole group for tall women here: http://www.myfitnesspal.com/groups/home/109-tall-women

    Lots of info there on where to buy long pants and giant shoes, commiseration on always weighing more than our friends, etc.

    I am 6 foot 2 and 188 lbs, I was 180 before my son was born and 165 when I met my husband 3 years ago, If I could get down to 175 and get toned up that is my goal!

    Add me! I am 5'11'' and weigh 199 right now after 2 kids in 22 months. I plan to get back to 175 and then take it from there.

    I'm 5'11 and also around 178. I think the only way I could lose 30lbs is cutting off a leg though!

    5'11" and goal is 190 :) I was 195 once and thought I looked pretty awesome - I agree with jnh, with my bodytype, I could only get to 150 by cutting off a leg :)

    I agree with that! If I were 150, I'd probably be hospitalized!
  • I'm 5'11 and 185. My ticker says that I'm trying to get down to 150, but I don't know how true that is. I'm very pear-shaped and I'd like to be in a size 8, so I don't know what weight I need to get to for that to happen, and I don't know how emaciated my top half will look once I get there.

    Do I still count? I'm exactly 5 foot 10! I am currently 171lbs and looking to lose up to 20lbs, but I would be happy with 10 or 15. I don't look my size, but I always tell people that the height creates the illusion of me being more slim than I really am, lol. I'm looking for MFPals who are about the same height/weight and looking to lose a similar amount for support and motivation. Add me!
