Any 5'7", 170 lb women out there? - what are your measurements?

Hi I'm 5'7" and my current goal weight is around 170 lbs. Since it's been years since I have weighed 170 I have no memory of what it 'looks' like. I realize everyone has different body shapes and it's hard to compare one 5'7" person to the next, but I was hoping there are some 5'7" women out there that are approx. 170 lbs that wouldn't mind sharing their measurements. Thanks for your help.
PS: I am sure that once I hit that goal I will have a new goal

Hi, I’m 5’1 and I weigh 170. I’m trying to go down but for some reason my weight just keeps going up.0

I m 5'7" my original goal was 170, then 165, now it's 155. Currently sitting at 163. What measurements are you looking for?0

everyone has different body shapes and it's hard to compare one 5'7" person to the next. There can be a few inches difference in the main measurements. I'm not going to post mine, but my clothing size is a few sizes different from some other people also at 5'7".0

I'm 5'7" and 170 lbs. I don't have measurements, but I wear a size 10 jeans/trousers. I am trying to lose at least 10 more pounds, maybe 15. I see people who are the same height here who weigh anywhere from 125 and up. If I weighed 125, I'd look like death. I'm certain because I'm 50 years old and haven't weighed that since about 6th grade (and only became overweight after I had babies). My prepregnant weight is 155, but to be honest, I'm aiming for looking my best in clothes and strength and endurance. Pick a goal weight, but don't place your whole heart on it. If I could maintain at 160 forever, it would be great, assuming I can still swim 2 miles or run a 10K if I feel like it0
