Hi everyone! If you are about 5'8 (between 5'7 and 5'9 ish), what's your goal weight?

Basically...how much should I optimally weigh do you think?

Anyone can input really, but I'm asking specifically for other girls/women my height!

«134

    Im 5'8" and a small frame, my original goal weight was 140 lbs, however since going gluten free and training for a half marathon I made it down to 133!! I definitely wont go any lower, I have been eating about 2000 calories a day! But I am in the best shape of my life today and am feeling great!! Good luck in your weight loss journey!

    I"m 5'7" and ultimately aiming for 140-145lbs. I've been that weight before and really liked it.

    im 6'0 and my weight should be between 140-170 if you check out your bmi you will be able to find a weight that would be healthy for you. I'm aiming for 150-160

    5'8 here and my goal is 145. Only 10 pounds to go! Now once I get there, I may decide to go down to 135.

    I'm 5'7" according to one doctor and 5'7 1/2" according to another. :p I don't have an ultimate goal weight yet. I always said 150 but I've never been anything but morbidly obese. I guess I won't know until I get there tbh. Part of me feels like anything below 175 is pushing it, like can't handle anything too low. But I'm not sure, I have no experience with it.

    im always surprised when 5'8 girls have such low weights or goal weights, you must have super tiny frames! I have a medium frame and my goal is 160 with an ultimate goal weight of 150. I am currently just under 180

    I'm 5'8" with a muscular build, and I'm pretty lean and love how I look when I'm about 140. 135 was great too but very difficult for me to maintain and not really worth the lifestyle modifications that went along with it. I look pretty decent around 145.

    I'm 5'9" and my goal is 135. I think I will be ok at 140 but I would love to see if I can get down to 135.

    I'm 5'8", medium build and my goal weight is 150. Honestly, I'd like to have a lower number (vain, I know) but I carry a lot of muscle (172 lbs, approximately 26% body fat) and I'm not willing to shed any of it to make that happen.

    I'm 5"8 and my goal is 65-70kg, I dunno what that is in pounds, I feel if I go lower than this I lose my sexy curves and just look far to skinny

    I'm 5"7, I currently weigh around 115 but I would really like to get more toned & put on 5 lbs. I've been as low as 107, and let me tell you, that's not attractive :(

    This pretty much sums it up.

    I'm 5'8" as well.
