This is helpful when shooting for a goal weight because it tells you if it's a) realistic and b) incorporates body fat % which is a critical measurement.

Good luck!

Thanks for the tip. Whats your story?

15 lbs is not far from goal. I'm the same height and remember being 143 (I started at 163ish though). You got this. Just maintain a moderate deficit, you'll feel great even once you lose the first couple pounds. I find that at our height, just getting into the 130s makes a big difference.

I'm trying to lose 15lbs by October 2. I was able to get to my goal weight of 129 twice on my fitness pal but I've gained it back. I'm so mad at myself. Fitness is not a problem for me it's the sugar and stress eating. I'm 5'6" and now weigh 144!!!!
