What do you weigh?

[Raenstoirm]

It is simple question and yet so hard for us to admit. It takes a lot of courage to tell the world not only am I fat, but I weigh xx lbs. I think getting that number out there will be freeing (and ultimately help with the weight loss), so I figure I will go first.

I am 5'11" and this morning weighted in at 192 exactly. I am currently in a size 12 and really really want to see that size 8 (my goal) before the summer clothes season starts. So I figure I have 20-30 lbs left to go. I was nearly 220 so I am almost 30 lbs down so far.


See that wasn't that hard.
Who's next?

 

[TB'sWidow]

Well i am 5-8 and I weigh 190lbs this is after losing 40lbs in the last 8months I still need to lose 30 more

 

[rluey29]

I am also 5-8, I am a male and I started out at about 218, now I am down to 205 after a few weeks. The weight is coming off slowly but it is coming off.

 

[MelanieC]

Wow - All these tall people, lol! 5"11, I can't even imagine.


Little ol' me is 5'2" and I'm 169.8 as of this morning. I agree, stating it allows you to own it and move on!!

 

[goldcupmom]

I'll join the short people group! I'm 5'2 & a smidge. At WW this morning I was 171.8

 

[NC State]

I'm 5'1" and at this time I'm 186 lbs. my goal is to lose 41 lbs more.

 

[mikamah]

I am 5'6" and was 199.2 yesterday at WW. My highest was 229 about 3 years ago, and I had gotten to 185 last year, and I'm hoping to get there again this year. I swore I never would go over 200 again, but I just did last week, so I've gotta stick to it this time, and stop that yo-yo-ing.

 

[50sjayne]

I'm 5"2 and 159. I decided to lose weight when i injured my back right before christmas and was 175 when the Biggest Loser challenge thread started. I am really feeling pretty good right now-- my back is so much better. My goal is 155 right now before we go to Disneyland, and I think I can do it. It's about 5 weeks. My struggle the next few months will be to not regain, expecially after the trip. And in the next year to maintain. Honestly- I just like food too much to ever want to be a stick figure- I feel great at my current weight.

For two years my scale and I were not on speaking terms, but we eventually had to work out our problems and he told me i weighed 293 pounds. But I knew what he was going to say before i stepped all over him. Well it has been almost two moinths and his words are much more kind. He had me at 264 pounds last Friday and i am hoping to be at the 30 pound mark this Friday morning. And I am 6' 1/2".

OK-- that's cute WTG.

 

[HockeyKat]

I am also 5'8" and the scale said 182.6 when I stepped on it on Fri AM.

My high was 218 in Feb '07. I had made it down to 160ish by the middle of last year, but the last half of '08 I was not kind to myself and waaaay too much stuff got shoved down the ol' piehole.

The hope is to see the 160s (and a size 10, I am currently a 14) again by the early summer.

 

[vettegirl]

I am 5'6 and weigh 128. I have been working extremely hard to maintain.

Who's next?

I am also 5'11" and as of this morning 176.6 - down from 185.8 when I started again 7 weeks ago. I would love to be in a size 12. My highest size has been 16 and they are finally big on me losing these 9 lbs. Size 10 is my goal..

 

[HockeyKat]

Hey Joanne, if you are anywhere close by and looking for a workout or walking buddy or anything, let me know... I may also have some 14s to lend/give at some point if things go the way I plan!

Lots of tall folks! I love it!

 

[VernRDH]

Guess I will be the shortest one at 4'11". As of this morning I was 172.6. My highest was 219 in Jan 07. I still need to lose about 50-55 pounds, but between Boot Camp club, Tae Kwon Do, yoga and training for the 2 half marathons I am doing, I should be able to get the weight off, provided I don't overeat. There's the rub, the food. Need to stop doing this and do more of this

Greetings and thanks

I am closer to Ft Bragg. There are quite a few taller ladies - now of course the military has my height at 5'7 and that just cracks me up....

 

[Zoesmama03]

I am 5'8" and my scale weighed me at 278 when I last weighed in almost 2 weeks ago(on a monday). I'll see what the old meter of truth says tomorrow. I'm at that time of the month so hoping for no gain but between that and the brownies I have had(not counting the ice cream cone I'll admit to having yesterday) the last two days.

I've done pretty good to maintain the 15 lbs I managed to lose during 2008. I sure hope I can manage more than that this year. I'd love to see myself get under 200 by Jan 2010.

 

[nikkistevej]

I'm 5'6 and weigh 235. I am working on losing in 20 lb increments. SO by my Disney cruise in June- I hope to be 215. It's not an ideal weight for me- but it's a start. That is how much I was on my last cruise- so at least it would be the same. DH and I have started working out at the Ymca a few days a week, and I am trying to only drink water at work.

 

[wezee]

Wow......I must commend all of you for publicly declaring your curent weight and goals. At my highest I was 195lbs and could never of admitted that to even my hubby, at that time. I am 5'6" and currently am struggling to maintain at 133lbs. My lowest was 128lb last Sept. (right before our WDW vaca) but am playing the up and down game with the scales right now.
This winter has been so cold and depressing, but the WISH Dis has helped me get motivated in the past. Good luck all! Here's to a warmer, leaner and healthier Spring!

 

[Wishes n Dreams]

I am 5'2" and weigh 229. yikes. this is my highest that I have weighed. Hopefully it will be down to a better number soon. I just ordered the TransFirmer from the firm today. Wish me luck. t
