depends on height lol ive got to 9 stone but deffo not a celeb!!

im 5'9 '' and have dropped to 126 pounds from about 168 (over more than a yr)this sounds v low compared to most goal weights.(my original goal weight was 140 pounds) but dont think im super thin or anything !do wanna start maintenance now though and not quite sure how to go about it...think i should definitely try and put…

This study is based on sedentary people I eat between the range of 1000/-1200 calories and exercise every other day (if not every day) it seems unlikely that this would result in decreased metabolism?

lol im exactly the same as you! 134 pounds 5 ft 9.my original goal weight was 140 pounds (10 stone) but this was just the weight i thought i would achieve the figure/clothes size i wanted...im v pear shaped so wanted to even up my shape more (currently size 8 top 12 bottom)and fit size 10 jeans.unfortunately i dont quite…

not sure concentrating on just weight is the best idea,im less than my original goal weight but not how i imagined/wanted to look i basically dont mind even if i weighed slightly more just wanna be a lot more toned!Ive always thought of it in more terms of a goal clothes size,so i guess stop when ur at a healthy weight and…

wow this sounds amazing xx

haha the one that gets my the most is coming from my mum shes like ur getting too thin...(bear in mind she is tiny 5 foot 2 and size 8)while i am no longer big or chubby or whatever i still would be considered 'curvy' and have a way to go...or if people say u lose any more weight u'll be anorexic umm no anorexia is a…

I'm currently at 20.5 but would like to lose a lil bit more not sure bmi is the best thing to measure myself in as im tall (5'9)so think it is too generous to me lol!

yeh this happened to me lost bout a stone from the start and was still the same size!(well on the bottom half anyway)now lost nearly 2 stone and am a size smaller ,think maybe it depends where u r losing weight from?I think no matter what i do i'll always have large hips so hard to go down a jean size

Ive always felt a bit uncomfortable with my weight (starting from being a teen)and always half heartedly tried to do something on and off about it...I guess maybe was a bit in denial,but looking at some photos taken when I was my heaviest last year I finally decided to do something proper ..and have lost almost 2 stone…

Hey :) Im 23 from brighton and have lost about 2 stone from last yr and a bit more to go does that count lol?

the ones with supposedly my body (5 foot 9 137 pounds )look waaay different to me...(better lol)but good idea and nice to sort of tell what ur aiming for

I think im having the same prob ,although i set myself a target weight of 10 stone (im 5ft 9) it was more an image in my head of how id look and clothes size,im now 9 stone 11 and am not gonna set a particular weight goal just stop when Im confident with how my body looks i mainly wanna tone up and just lose a lil bit…

I'd say hourglass cus ur soo much more in proportion than me ,i consider myself a pear (even though I dont have a small bust)as my bottom half is so much bigger than my top.but I dont see what body shape has got to do with workout style??

size 10 jeans!(uk size) im currently an 8 on top and a 12 on the bottom ,so size 10 would be great and even up my pear shape...

hey congratulations :D ,feel free to add me if u need support xx

4 pounds im always really surprised when people lose 7+pounds a week lol im like how is that even possibe??

I may be a separate category or a mix of all 3 lol??Basically my parents brought me up as a vegetarian(although they both eat meat now!...)so I never liked the taste of meat (have tried in the past as thought eating meat occasionally could be beneficial to my health),but really dont like the taste/texture.I also am quite…

Hey, im on a 1200 calorie net goal for mfp. feel free too look at my food diary for ideas :) am a pescetarian tho so no meat for me.I guess its about portion control really ,I like to save a lot of room for dinner lol so have a smallish breakfast and lunch and try to minimalise snacking ....but this probably isnt the best…

hey :) I'm 5 ft 8-9 ish myself and aim to lose about a pound a week my caloried goals set at 1200 but its only this low because i swear I have a v slow metabolism as only netted about 1500 cals in the past when I gained weight.It depends what ur starting point is really and how much exercise you do if ur active id say aim…

lol i guess but its not forever...and think I would probably keel over and faint if i was only on 500!

I think the 5:2 thing is just a lil bit crazy not trying to be rude everyones entitled to their own opinion but I know people on it who eat 500 calories on 2 days and then 1500 on the other 5 with no exercise.I eat about 1000 -1200cals every day with exercise isnt this healthier than practically starving on the 500…

Im nearly at my goal weight as well was thinking once I get there to work out the same but slowly increase my calorie intake??Make sure I don't start gaining again ,I do realise shouldnt think of it as a diet but a life style change but hopefully can treat myself more once I get to goal weight.any help?

IM 5 foot 9 and started out with a goal weight in my head of 140 pounds (ten stone) but I'm aiming more for what shape and dress size I wanna be than an exact weight as im 144 pounds and would still like to tone up a bit so might be setting a new goal weight...

I'd like to know if we are meant to eat all the extra calories burned from exercise??Id say if your hungry try to eat them but its a struggle for me to eat back all the calories I work off.I usually eat around 1000-1200 cals a day depending on exercise but mfp usually says this isnt enough...I do think I have a slow…

my sugar almost always goes over even though everything else is way under,and i swear I barely have any sugar the most sugary thing i can think of is one glass of squash!so think the sugar recommendation might be set v low...

cool im 5 ft 9 cw 144 pounds

are you guys american?? im from the uk and sizes different i think...im 144 pounds 5 ft 9 and a uk size 8 on top and 12 on the bottom

haha have the same problem all my clothes are getting too big but cant really afford to replace them all if im not at my goal weight yet and hopefully in a few months the new clothes would be too big as well!should I buy clothes that fit now or ones slightly to tight that I will 'slim' into once im my goal weight??

whats 131 pounds around 9 stone?im 5 ft 9 and around 10 ish stone ,ill admit 131 may be on the light side but dont think would look 'starved'! everyones different though I guess lots of other factors besides height and weight (like body frame size and shape so yeh bmi isnt always the best way to work things out)
