You will get similar answers but are you eating back your exercise calories? If not you are really consuming around 700-900 calories a day and you are probably in starvation mode so your metabolism is down. Eat back your calories so you are consuming around 1500 calories a day NET

5 foot 11 since the age of 11, life was not easy being that tall AND having size 10 feet (size 12 US). You can add me! What's everyones goal weight?

I get that as well! I think people don't understand the concept of skinny fat which is what I have been most of my life.

I would say that I think it is ridiculous to compare today's society to previous generations. Yes we have more obese people but it is my belief we also have more problems regarding anorexia/bulimia. We also are taller than we were previously. I'm 5 foot 11 and even though I'm still seen as very tall I would have dwarfed…

You look so much better. You are clearly in it for the long haul and have shown the commitment! Keep taking pictures for the difficult days.

Well that was my thought as it takes me an hour on the treadmill to burn that much! It was interval training if that makes any difference and it was hilly but I am pretty sure it is an overestimate.

Nothing like MFP to make you feel better about yourself! Thank you it is probably better if I get a sideways picture. It is not obvious when I am clothed but I would like to be at a place just before you see a six pack develop, flat and toned. It is a small goal but it is something I would like to do!

Hey! Level 2 Day 2 is today - it is very scary and I don't like it since it is done a lot from a push up position and I have no upper body strength. Add me!

This. My dad is 6 foot 1 and my mum is 5 foot 7. Somehow I ended up 5 foot 11 and my brother is 6 foot 5! I reached my full height aged 11 and it was miserable. I also have huge feet, size 10 UK (12 US). My mum tried to tell me it didn't matter about my height and of course being a teenager I never listened. Only now do I…

Tall girl here! I'm 5 ft 11 and 160 lb - my heaviest ever since coming to the USA and not walking everywhere. My problem is my lower stomach paunch which every website tells me is fat but I have never had a flat stomach, even when I weighed 140 lb! Any ideas?

Just found a different calculator by someone on MFP that gave me 24.9% BF which sounds more realistic for me. Thanks for everyone's input!

Skinny fat - that definitely sounds like me! I am fairly slim all over but have the classic lower stomach podge? I am doing 30 DS and C25K as I am incredibly unfit but I am losing inches everywhere but there. Also whilst on the topic, does anyone has any advice for starting a new gym and starting a weights program? I have…

Hi I have done the similar, I'm 19, 5 foot 11 and weigh 162 lb or 11 stone 8 lb except I am on a gap year in the USA and the combination of, like above having a high metabolism when I was younger and walking everywhere I could really eat whatever I like. I have put on 10 lb here but I would like to lose 15lb and to be…

Hello fellow tall girls! I am 5 ft 11 and weigh 162 lb (lost 2 lb so far). I gained 12 lb in the last few months having moving to the USA from England so have not been walking anywhere and eating all the junk food everywhere has to offer. Worst of all I have gained all of this round my lower stomach thanks to my wonderful…
