    I am 5'6" and 45 yr old. I started at 165 and am holding around 145-148 (4 months of maintenance). The lowest weight I've been at an adult was 130 and I was not eating well and was a cardio bunny. It was not healthy. So I won't be trying to get there. I was 140 and really strong and healthy in my mid-30s so would love to be there, but I don't really care about weight too much and more about body composition. I don't want to be 'skinny' but fit and strong. I will be doing a small cut (TDEE-12%) in January for 3 months to see if I can lose some of my body fat while retaining my strength and muscles. If I stay the same weight while losing fat, I'll be happy. If I lose a bit of weight while retaining most of my strength & losing fat, I'll be happy.

    I'm 5'4" and currently 155. I'm aiming to lower my body fat% to under 25 and close to 20. This will probably put me at 140-145 lbs.

    GW: 135 (Depending on how I look). I just want to make sure I am in the healthy BMI range.

    Right now, I am focusing my energy on getting below 200. I am currently at my lowest weight in at least 5 years.

    GW no longer matters, its all about how I look and how strong I am, when my re-comp is complete.

    5'2"
    CW 244
    GW 145

    I know that's heavier than is fashionable, but it's quite literally my "fighting weight" -- the weight at which I was at optimum athletic performance and winning martial arts tournaments.

    That, and I've gotten into distance swimming. Not a sport for the very low of body fat if you expect to survive cold water.

    I have the same stats as these.
    Height 5'2"
    SW 244
    CW 148.6
    GW 144.4
    I can say that while that might seem a little heavier than what is fashionable I have gone from wearing a Women's 20 to a Petite 2/4 if I were to go down much further or what is fashionable I think my family would have an intervention and try and commit me someplace!

    Your goal weight has to work with YOUR body!

    H: 5'4''
    SW: 20st/ 280lbs
    CW: 13st 10lbs/ 192lbs
    GW: 10st/ 140lbs (for now...)

    I initially chose my goal weight as it's half my starting weight, and it puts me near the top of the 'normal' bmi range. Although around 9st/ 126lbs is in the middle of the range so it's more of an 'ideal' weight. I'm going to focus on getting down to 10st for now and then see how I feel when I get there. Might want to lose that bit more or may stop focussing on weight and try to lower my bodyfat, or I might be happy at that weight anyway!

    I'm 5'8" and 145 lb as always a been a weight I could maintain but I also look pretty darn good. I have never been thin, and never will, and although at times I went down to 138, that was a super struggle and could only keep it for a week, even 142 very low for me.
    I was 184 about 3 weeks ago, now I'm 175.5, so I have 30 lbs to go but I feel that it's totally doable.

    I'm 5'6". My goal is 150. I don't have a clue what my body will look like at that weight. I'm 198 in my profile pic, sooooo who knows? I'll reassess at 150 and see if I want to keep going or go into maintenance.
  • 5'4
    SW 192
    CW 139
    GW 130

    In reality I'll have to see how I feel at 130 because I've never been that before so no idea what I'll look like.

    That's if I ever get there it seems the closer I get the less motivation I have. It should be the other way around! At least I'm not gaining I suppose

    A little over 5'9. Currently weigh about 129. I have my GW set as 125 but my real goal is not a weight, and I'm expecting to land somewhere 125-127 while pursuing my real goal (lower hunger levels back to normal and get a more balanced nutrition profile and meal schedule).

    5'6 - goal range is 140-145. Current weight range is 147-150 - last few months I have been averaging about .5 weight loss a week, which is great (started in January in the 190's).

    5'8.5" and mostly interested in being muscular, strong, fit, and lean. With that said, 180 is too fat, 170 would probably make me casually happy, if I do things right 160 would probably make me genuinely happy, and 150 would make me wear a Stars and Stripes bustier+booty shorts combo carry a golden lasso and drive an invisible jet. ;)

    I am 5'4.5", and I have a larger build naturally. I am shooting for 150#, because when I was a teen, I looked a bit sick at 135#, and I didn't work out then. Now that I do, muscle mass will put me at feeling fine around 150#. I started feeling really good a couple years ago when I got to 158#. So 150# seems reasonable.

    I hit goal weight this month, then dipped a little below on accident. I'm sure next week will even me out. :)
