    I'm 173cm which I think is 5'8. SW was 93.2kgs. CW is 88.2kgs. GW is 70kgs. Everyone seems so light. I must have a large frame because under 70kgs would be a struggle for me to maintain.

    Identical height (down to the cm!). When I was 70kgs (I still have vague memories of this time!) I thought I needed to lose weight still. So 70kgs for me is a re-evaluation weight.

    SW: 210
    CW: 153
    GW: 130

    I was on low-calorie diet, because of PCOS. I have increased my calories recently and weight-loss seems to gone on a break.

    same height and I am 70kgs, but I feel I should lose 5kg. I have no idea how to lose it since I have strained my ankle and can't so any exercise. I don't want to cut more on calories as I feel it has affected my skin (or I'm just getting old)

    5'8" currently 116, goal 110. I don't look good when i'm above 120

    Uh, you need help...

    Rude.

    I have to agree with misskarne. 110lbs is heading into anorexic town at our height... :disappointed:

    122 is the borderline of underweight..110 is a BMI of 16.7 and puts someone at serious risk of long term health issues

    It is not rude to point out this is not any where near a healthy weight and means the patient is likely not getting enough nutrients

    Thank you for your concern guys but at 110-112 pounds i look and feel the best. I am one of those girls that stores fat weirdly, when i'm above 120 i look disproportionate.
    I also get the most compliments when i'm around 110 pounds from both men and women, and i have no health issues :)
    We all have the same height but different body types! I support all of you with different goal weights :)

    I'm about 5'9". Current weight is 170ish (haven't weighed myself in a few weeks). I would like to get back to 155 (where I was a year ago). 150 would be great but I don't plan on starving myself to get there.

    5'8.5". Started at 245, got down to 150, and have bulked back up to 180-185. Love it here, and since I am a competitive weight class athlete with zero desire to drop down a weight class I am staying here.

    I'm 5'10" and I'd like to get down to 160. I have no idea what that even looks like on me since it's been so long. Coasted for years at 180-190. Then life stuff and bad habits got me up to 236. I've dropped down to 216, but it's taken awhile. MFP and Fitbit has helped a lot since the start of the year. Once I'm at 160 I'd like to start kickboxing again and see where that takes me.

    Currently 124, still wanting to shed more fat to get a full six pack. It's hard to eat lower at maintenance thought! I've lost about 3-4lbs, and gained muscle definition.

    5'7.5" started in the high 140's, currently 136-137, with a goal of 128. Less than 10 lbs to go, wahoo!!
