I'm 5'2" and my primary goal is a healthy bmi at 136. Once there I will reevaluate and possibly go to 125. I wouldn't really want to go any lower than that, I like my curves, lol. I started at 204, currently at 148.6.0

You have lost alot, how long has that took you?
good luck xxx
Took me about 6 months to loose the official weight off, i actually got to 153 but I've gained weight which has me at 161 as of today.0 -
I'm 5'2" as well. My GW would be 115 lbs but I'll reassess that once I get down to around 120 and see how I feel.
My starting weight was 139 and I'm at 131 currently - so getting there!0 -
I'm 20, 5'2, and 128lbs. I started at 140. My goal is to look 120lbs. I just wanna be happy. If the scale is higher than what I look I don't care. I'm trying to get a little slimmer and toned.0

Well, Im down to 199 from 315 and my goal is 175. I am ruggedly built and like myself with a little fluff. Still 50lbs overweight at that point, but I like myself there..if I feel like continuing I will prob aim for 150.0 -
I'm 5'2. I started at 211.6 lbs and I'm currently 149 lbs. So 62ish lbs down. I've also had a baby in between there. Overall I'm aiming for 110-115. We'll see. First thing's first, and that's hitting a healthy BMI.0
-
I'm 5'0 1/2 and my goal weight is 90-100 pounds. My first goal weight was 115 pounds but I still looked pretty big imo
I started at 148 lbs and im currently at 108ish0 -
I'm 5'3 and my goal is 140 ish (so 13ish pounds more). I have broad shoulders and muscular legs, so I think look better at higher weights.0

5'2.5" Medium frame. Age 43. SW: 262 CW:158 Next goal, to get under 140 and healthy enough to do resistance work. I keep making a little progress, getting hurt, and starting all over after a couple of months of rest. *sigh*0

Its funny..last night my husband and I were talking about this. I said I was about 25lbs to goal..I said realistically, I should aim for 125 but then I said "I can never be that!" .. My husband says "And why not?" I said because "it wasnt me" and Im meant to be heavier. I was 125 in 8th grade the last time. I think maybe Im scared to try for it??I dunno..thanks for making me think about this!!!0

I'm 5'2 my goal weight is 120 lbs. I started at 160 and I'm at 128 currently. 8 more lbs to go! I may re-evaluate at 120 but we will see how I feel. Good luck everyone!!0

I'm 5'2" and getting very close to the initial goal I set in March of 135. Now, I'm feeling like I would like to get down to 125.0

I'm 5'2". SW: 133 (1/1/15) CW: 121 GW: 1130

Sw 204 Cw 144 Gw 1340
-
5' 2.5 CW:136 SW:144 GW:120 lbs but who am I kidding, I will be happy if I just fit back into my wedding dress. That was 10 years ago at 124 lbs but I did not exercise back then so who knows I might have muscle weight now.0

I think the core (pun intended) story is that everyone's different. Even at the same height, we have different healthy goals. I'm 5'2" on a good day (the last nurse that measured me called me 5'1"--grrr!) and I couldn't imagine weighing 110 lbs. I started weighing myself when I was 11 and I weighed more than that! lol And, it's not because I was huge, must be big boned (and certainly curvy, even back then....). My lowest post-teen weight was 122, at which I was a comfortable size 2 and people called me "skinny" and told me I looked "too skinny" and should gain a bit (and not just my mother!). I'm a 4 between 125 and 130 and no one complains about that. My current weight is 140 (size 8 and don't feel overly fat, just not skinny either) and I'd like to get back into the 120's and stay there.
Good luck everyone!0 -

Thats good that you know what you like. I think with us being little aswell if we go too thin we look like little girls instead of women, i want to keep my curves but get rid of the jigglly bits. Think i need to go back to weight training xx0 -

I think its a personal choice. I was happy at 130 then i decided i wasnt. I set myself a goal that's achievable, then once i've reached it decide if i want to lose more or maintain. Good luck xx0 -

Good luck its always better setting yourself achievable goals. I have to do so many squats to keep my bum during weightloss, you may notice that whilst your dropping the lbs xx0 -

Its achievable just set achievable goals and then new goals. I'm sure you'll get to your ideal weight and be happy xx
