    Also 5'4. Started at 167 down to 150.4 right now. Lowest I've ever been was 127 and honestly it was too skinny. I carry all my weight in my lower half and at 127 I looked super bony up top then. But we all carry our weight differently. I'm aiming for 130 I think. But I was pretty happy when I weighed 135 in all honesty. I've also been having some medical issues do sticking with my current plan has been a lot easier knowing that it's helping me not feel like death warmed over!

    I'm shaped the same. I just started touching 127 on a good day recently and it's about the thinnest I can get. All bony up top!

    I'm just curious about your ages. I'm 5' 3.75", 53 years old. My goal weight is 146 (about 25% body fat). The last time I was anywhere near 125-130 was when I got married at 24yo.

    I'm turning 30. The last time I ever weighed 125-130 was probably the 5th grade. I hit 150 in middle school and was between that and 180 ever since. I've actually never been slim.

    I'm 25 yrs old. The last time I fell into this weight range I was 19. However, even though my weight is about the same I wear smaller clothes now than I did at 19.

    I'm 5'4 and started at 179 about 5 yrs ago on ichange logging everything I ate everyday . I started using MFP when quite a few of the ladies from ichange switched over . I am currently using both programs . I weigh 148 now but was down to 145 in the summer . Would like to get down to 142 , I know that's probably more than I should weigh for my height but at 64 I'd be happy with that . I just want to stay healthy and keep my cholesterol and blood sugar under control .

    I'm 5'4" and I am between 127 and 132 lbs. so when I am being really good ad eating clean I get to 127/128 and when I'm being more carefree am around 132.

    I would love to get to gw of 120 but I can't seem to ever get lower than 125. Must be a plateau - I'm starting to just accept it

    Hi there, Im new here, Im 5'3.5 :) I am currently at 187, ( lost 5 pds my first two weeks, 3rd week ends tomorrow) I would like to get to 140, it's tough, I've been trying to lose weight for years with no success, but then I've always had them tied to a goal, like going on a vaca or something..... NOW Im doing it cause I want to, and cause I want my back to stop hurting so much..... My goal is by spring, I can do a flip on the parallel bar, nothing drastic, just a simple flip. LOL
    I'm the same height and weight as you & your struggle sounds identical to mine! Lol. Hang in there! Feel free to add me!

    I'm 5'4" and currently weigh 133. I want to get down to 110, because that is the weight I felt the healthiest at.

    Until I was 25 my highest non-pregnancy weight was 105. I always thought I was too skinny and needed to gain a few pounds. When I managed to get up to 110 and felt great. Had more energy and liked the way I looked more.

    Then I got up to 125 in what seemed like no time for no explainable reason. I went to the doctor and was diagnosed with lupus and RA. The medications they put me on caused me to balloon up and didn't help my symptoms. I got off the medications at 145lbs and haven't been able to get back to that 110 I felt so great at since! My symptoms are mostly managed by eliminating food triggers from my diet, but I just know getting the extra weight off will relieve a lot of the strain on my body!

    I turn 30 in January and would be so happy to be down to 120 by then. That's where I was last summer; life got crazy and I stopped being strict about my diet.

    Here! Started at 180. Currently at 140. At this point, I'm mostly trying to get in shape, but I could probably stand to lose another 10 pounds.

    Hi all :) I'm 51 years old and 5'4", too! Started my journey here on MFP in July 2014 at 369lbs. Today I'm 243.6lbs with a 125lbs loss so far! WOOHOO!!! I don't even truly know what I want my goal to be since I've never weighed below 200lbs yet in my whole adult life. I figure IT'S ALL GOOD now as long as it's going down down down!! However, I am currently stuck on this horrible plateau and it's irking the devil out of me GRRRRRRR!!!! >:)

    I'm a touch taller, at just over 5'5" ☺️. Currently 181 lbs or so, would be very happy at 145-150. Main aim is to reduce body fat - it's over 40% now, and I don't like being the consistency of double cream!

I would rather not say how much I weigh right now but I am hoping to lose about 100 lbs. we all have to start somewhere right? I wish you all great luck and success!
