I am 5'8".. I started out at 200 lbs size 15 pants. I am now 144 lbs a size 7 or 5.depending on the brand... my goal weight is 135, hopefully a steady size 5.

yep! ive dropped 50+ lbs. I'm right in the middle of a "healthy" weight for my height. I know realistically theres some toning to do. But i still see the almost 200 lb me in the mirror. I'm alot harsher when i judge myself, than anyone else.

probably

I did an Atkins style diet, started out at 200 lbs about a year ago.. STICK WITH IT!!! give it two weeks the weight will quickly come off, then slow again lol. I also found sucess with intermittent fasting, and found encouragement and motivation in running. I ran my 1st half marathon in January. I am down to 147 lbs. still…

I am 5'8", usually a 9 in jeans, and a medium shirt. I started at 198 lbs at my highest wearing a size 15 jeans. I now weigh around 155.

I have a drink on the weekends now and then, Monday night i went to a bar with my boyfriend, when im sitting in a bar i tend to drink very quickly (social anxiety maybe) but Monday i drank water, In the 2 and a half hrs i was there, i drank 5 large glasses of water! haha, great way too get your water intake. If i drink its…

Yep! was planning on re-wearing shoes to the christmas party from last year, 30 lbs down, and they wouldnt stay on at all!

I have lost 30 lbs on a paleo style diet with excersize, it is still hard work, and you have to be careful not to get carried away with the foods you are allowed in moderation. I recently (for about a month) went off the diet almost completely and gained 5 lbs back, but that was because i was eating everything in sight.…

I am no longer breastfeeding, as my kids are 3 and 4, but i did until both were 15 months. I went back to work full time when my youngest was 2 months old and it was also a slow decline in milk production. I would try and pump more, pump after he eats at night to encourage milk production, it will be slow at 1st but your…

"fatdoob" hehe, that article was actually extremely helpful, kristy6ward, you should take a look.

I am 5 foot 8 my current weight is 156-158, calories vary between 1200- 1600 depending on workouts

I dont have a ton to lose, but enough. I want to lose 20 more lbs before im at my goal. I have lost 40 over the last year. My boyfriend told me " You dont lose weight, you lose and gain it right back." I didnt take it well, lol.

hey guy! good for you, gotta start somewhere. I am on the same journey started sort of in the same place as you are. I used to be a varsity soccer player at 16. 140 lbs on a good day, Had two babies fresh out of high school back to back...started a desk job, "no time to work out" "no time to cook" got my self up to 196…

Dont quit, im also at a two week stand still after a 18lb loss, I feel the SAAAME way girl! Last night talking to my boyfriend, he said "you arent at a healthy bmi yet, i pulled up the site and showed him, 24.9, he said "well barely under" i wanted to cryyyyy, hide under a rock, never eat again, never try agian, just GIVE…

I am 5'8" my goal weight is 140 I am currently 158, came down from 198(my body loves the 8's i guess) great job btw! =]

I didnt cut out calories i researched intermittent fasting and decided to give it a try. When i eat more than 1000 calories i gain, i cant imagine i need more. Also, i wasnt looking to cut out foods, i was looking to switch up the food im eating to get better results. I do believe the last 10 or so lbs will come off slow…

I started with that program I'm up to 10 miles at a time, its been 6 months since i started the couch to 5k and when i started i could only run 1/8 of a mile at a time.

I count calories for the most part, I don't usually go over 1,000. I'm doing 1 meal a day on this intermittent fasting, which was working for about a week, the last 8 lbs of what ive lost so far, but now im at a stand still...i just need to be patient but its hard to stick to it with little results, i wanna get back on…

paleopath, do you eat cheese? I've seen alot of low carbers with mixed opinions on cheese. If im lacking in results should i cut it out?

fair to conclude,I've been guesstimating.... Should also add, I am currently 158 lbs 5'8" want to lose 20 more lbs on this diet before i start maintaining, the 1st 20 came off right away. lastly, I've been experimenting with intermittent fasting, sooo I'm a bit confused of how much i need of WHAT (ie protein,fat,carbs) in…

Right there with ya! Been so unmotivated the past week or so, need motivation! feel free to add me=]

I was never drastically over weight, I have been pretty confident as long as i can wear clothing, (ie not 100 degree summer months) ive lost 40 lbs in the last year, and i am more self concious than ever. I see every "roll" and little thing i'd like to work on. I think seeing what we can do do our bodys for the good makes…

@hwoeltjen Could you possibly educate me on macros? I read alot online but have slim to zero knowledge on the subject. I ate a low calorie/fat diet for over a year along with running and strength training and i was miserable and barely losing. Low carb has opened my eyes i am so motivated these days.

Seeing results helps me get through those feelings, I hate working hard and not seeing results on the scale. I'm not sure what your goals are, but just today i took a look and a before picture of myself 20 lbs, 2 months ago and i was SHOCKED, so looking back on progress ive made helps. Set short term goals for yourself, I…
