5'9" - 6'1" girls, please share!
I'm 5'11" and I'm finding it really hard to find before/after pictures of tall women! Inspiration is inspiration, yes, but I'd love to see the pounds gone from someone who at least started out looking like me. If you have pictures, please share them in the thread!

-60 lbs in 5 1/2 months!
The before picture was actually after I'd already lost about 15-20 pounds, and the after (more accurately, the during) is me this morning before heading off to be sunburned at work. I'm 5'11", 20 years old, and have gone from 273 lbs to 212 lbs. I began my journey at the tail-end of January and MFP has made a world of…

5'11" and -40 lbs, 50 to go
It's amazing how 40 pounds gone on a large, 5'11" frame is pretty hard to see. The other day, I took a picture of my stomach and realized I was finally seeing progress in a pretty big way (at least, to me!). This is no where near finished, but I'm really liking my body again, and that feels awesome. I've never weighed this…

UK vs. US portions and nutrition
Hey! So I'm going to be studying abroad to England next fall. I won't be losing weight, or will be very slowly, while I'm there so that I have time to actually enjoy food and eating whenever with friends. However, I have some questions for people who live/have lived in the UK or have studied abroad there (or even…

"Dieting" While Sick?
I've had a really bad cold/sinus infection thing for the past couple days, and I actually have an appetite tonight. I'm interested if anyone else allows themselves to slide a little on healthy eating while sick... I'm craving some chocolate and feel so terrible. I've been up on all the vitamins and liquids to get better,…

-21 lbs... and can't see any progress! :(
Stats: Height: 5'11" Age: 19 SW: 273 CW: 252 GW: 170 I've been with this for over 43 days now, and I've lost over 20 pounds. Which is great and all, but I can't see ANY progress in the mirror. I've even taken before and now pictures for myself to compare, and they're no different. I'm not losing inches either, in fact my…

Eating at College Advice -- Sodexo
Does anyone else go to a college whose dining is run by Sodexo? If so, does anyone know how accurate Sodexo's nutrition is on MFP? It's extremely hard to figure out accurate Subconnection nutrition, I've found, but if anyone has any tips and tricks for figuring out Sodexo nutrition, it'd be awesome to hear it!

Not Losing Weight Anymore? :(
Basic stats: 19 years old, current weight 264, current height 5'11" So I started exercising and dieting about two full weeks ago (on the third week), and in that time I lost about 8 pounds--basically water weight, I'm guessing. I've been staying under 1,500 calories everyday and most days I average 800-1,300 calories,…

Need Some Advice About Extra Skin!
Hi, so I'm 19 and I've just started losing weight. I'd lost about 20 pounds over the summer, but once college came around again, I gained it all back from late-night binging. ANYWAYS, I'm concerned that once I lose a significant amount of weight, I'll have loose skin. I started at 273 and most of my weight is carried on my…
