I'm 5'9. My SW was 181 (beginning of May 2013), CW 166 and GW is somewhere between 140 - 150. That's a big range, but I haven't been below 160 for 15 years, and I have to gauge when I get there. I'm pretty happy in my healthy weight range now, and look fine, but am a faster runner and feel a little better in the lower 150s.

For reference, I've been working very, very hard for the last three months, and have lost around 15 pounds. I eat well, but am restricting calories and keeping carbs low, and working out 5 - 6 days a week. I had less to lose from the beginning, but I tend to agree that you've won the argument here. With that said, if YOU…

Woops, tried to fix your pic and it didn't work. Perhaps someone else will:)

If you can't smile, go for a sexy smirk:) Great work!

Wow. Super interesting thread. Thanks for sharing.

I think it is insane that you have to pass an arbitrary "fitness test" 6 mo postpartum. This needs to change. As long as we are trying to be more inclusive as a society and in the military, we should be honest about what women need. Anyway, I don't have anything constructive to add about quick weight loss. Just know that I…

Should be called "beer handles" for me. I quit drinking beer, which was painful, but it helps significantly. Still drinking alcohol, but trying to stick to wine or vodka/ sodas. We spend a lot of time with festive friends, especially in the summer. I think to pick up and get things moving again, I probably need to cut out…

Great question. I should start taking measurements. Haven't done any!

Thanks so much! I'm not entirely sure about my ultimate goal. I've always been athletic and muscular, but post-kid, some of the muscle ahem relocated. Anyway, I haven't weighed 140 for 15 years, and not sure if its realistic or not. Honestly, I will be really happy to reach the 150's, and anything beyond that would be…

Just friend requested you:) Its fun to keep up with folks with similar stats.

@SteveStedge, is she on MFP? We should be friends!

SW: 180.6, May 10, 2013 CW: 172.2 GW: 140 I have another 32 lbs to go, but would love to lose 20 total (I'm 5'9) to get down to 151 by my 5th wedding anniversary on Aug. 9.

I'm 5'9 and my size seems to change very slowly. At 180, I'm a 12 or 14. At 170, I'm a 12. At 160, I'm starting to get into 10s. I think I have wider hips, which keeps me in bigger pants:) So hard to say what is right for you. I'm trying to make it to a size 6, but really I will stop before then if I feel lean.

I am 5'9, and have a medium frame. SW: 181.6 CW: 171.8 GW: 140 I have always been muscular and athletic, but had a kiddo 3 years ago and haven't been able to lose the weight and keep it off. A year ago, I got down to 163, but was still wearing a 10 or 12. I'd like to get down to a size 6. Not stuck on a particular number…

I'm 5'9. Started at 181 about 3 weeks ago, and weighed in this morning at 174.2. At 181, my size 12 jeans wouldn't button, and my 10s looked pretty lonely in the back of my closet:) Pleased with my progress so far. Eating Paleo, and restricting to 1200 calories. Working out 4-5 times a week. My goal weight is 145, but i…
