    I'm 5'7 and I feel pretty great at 155! I am pretty muscular and have big boobs though (did you know those things can weigh a ton!?) I think it definitely depends on the individual.

    Me too! I wonder if they allow for that in the weight charts. Maybe I don't have to lose as much as I thought.

    5'6" GW 145

    I'm 5'8". I have a larger frame and I have a very curvy figure. Strong hourglass, big chest, big bum. I'd love to get back to my Volleyball weight which was 160. Right now that is my goal. I may re-evaluate once I get there though. I always wondered what 150 would look like. But if I go lower than that, I will look like Skeletor.

    I'm 5'8" and the lowest I got was 139. I loved it but was really hard to maintain. I call it my "summer weight". :) Right now I'm around 147-148 and still trying to get rid of those holiday lbs.

    I am 5'8" and currently maitaining at 140. I will be 40 in a few weeks and 140 is feeling really good. Back in my 20's I was around the 130's, if the scale gets down there again...that would be great, but I am not going to force it. My focus now is just continuing to tone and if the scale drops a little that would be great...if not I am happy where I am.

    5'8". CW 155 GW 135 prob on the low side for me but my plan is to get there and then see where I land eating at maintence...my guess is 140 is more realistic to maintain....

    I started at 163, got down to 141 and felt too thin, so I gained back a few. Have been around 144 and feel this is a good weight for me. I always thought I was large frame, but have never used a "frame calculator". Going to look for one now.

    I'm 5'8" with a larger frame. I'm going to see how 180 looks on me then reassess.

    I'm working toward a muscular 145-150 down from 206. At one point I was 125-130 and that was just way too thin for my frame.

    My baby just turned 5 months and I'm trying to get back in shape. My goal by summer is 148, (my weight when I got pregnant) and my ultimate goal is 135.
