    Super helpful to see a thread with some perspective from other tall girls. I'm 5'10" and my goal weight is 165. Would consider 155 but only if I could do it without losing lean muscle mass. Love lifting heavy in the gym. Currently 191 just bought my first size 12 pants in a while. I was 220ish at my heaviest. I was 145 in college but not very healthy at the time.

    5'11 here, with a muscular/athletic frame, pretty much straight up and down. I like anywhere in the 145-150 range. I'm 155 now, heaviest was 163. I'm a size 6.

    I am 6ft. Like you my goal is to get under 200lb. I am 65lb away from that. I think maybe 180 is a good weight for 6ft but we shall see. For now I will be happy under 200.

    After being overweight for what would seem to be my entire childhood, I lost a lot of weight as a teen girl (and we all know not in a healthy way being a teenager) and my lowest was 115 lbs at 5"11. Ya, way too thin. In university I was 135ish. My goal is 155 but boy am I looking forward to breaking that 200! Would love to add friends looking to support each other as we set our sights on crushing 200.

    I'm 5'10 1/2" and my current goal is to get under 225, then 200, then I will aim for final goal. Not quite sure where that will land, somewhere between 160 and 170 I think. Would love to get lower, but don't know if I can.

    It's so hard because everyone is built differently. I am 5'11 and sw was 330, current weight is 283.5 want to get to 180 as my ultimate goal right now. I can't ever remember weighing less than 220 in the times where I would have noticed that I was. I was that in high school and while larger than most, I was active and busy. SO anything less than 200 I will be thrilled!

    I'm just shy of 5'10 and my goal is somewhere around 140. I've always had a pretty small frame though.

    I'm always so amazed by how much the lbs varies for people with the same height!

    At 5'11 I'm happily maintaining between 170 - 175 at a size 8 / 10. Any higher and I can start to see the difference in my face and any lower and I start looking ill.

    I'm also small framed, 5'10", and I'm looking to be around 140-150. (My wedding ring is a size 4.5 if that tells you anything!)

    I'm 5'11" and the goal range for my height depending on bone structure is 135 lbs. to 176 lbs. depding on body frame. According to Weight Watchers at 6'0" a healthy range is between 138 lbs to 179 lbs depending on your body frame.

    I am 5' 10.5" with big bones (7in wrist circumference). I've never been under 220 so my goal weight is between 165 and 180. I really want to see what my body comp is when I get lower and decide from there.

    I know I couldn't go under 160 without looking like a skeleton with the skin stretched over it.

    Yeah that wouldn't work for me, or many other tall people I know. I am already about 134lbs of lean body mass. Those charts don't account much for muscle mass or bone frame.

    I wear a size 11 ring, extended sized bracelets (my wrists are all bone, tendon and skin; they aren't getting any smaller), and can palm a basket ball.

    I would have to lose a limb to be able to be in the middle of some of these charts.
