    In the last few years my weight has fluctuated big time. I started off at around 160, got as low as 97lbs, maintained that for a few years (I was actually eating 1800 cals a day and exercising lots to get to that weight, as well as following a healthy diet), but binge eating has led me to 140 lbs again (Think I got back up to 150 at one point...). Anyway, I'd like to get down to 130, then perhaps 120-125.

    height: 5' 3.75''

    SW: 20st / 280lbs
    CW: 13st 1.5lb / 183.5lbs
    GW: 10st / 140lbs

    That is my initial goal weight - puts me nicely into the 'normal' bmi category (although I know that system can be flawed) and is half my original weight, although I'm going to assess when I get there - may end up going down to 9st / 126lbs, may end up focussing less on weight and more on body comp, may end up happy at 10st, we'll see...

    I'm 5'4" and 41 years young. My CW hovers at 128. I have gone lower but it looks really emaciated on me. I think it may be a result of having 3 kids. Our hips spread. My daughter is 5'4" and 115. She looks great but thankfully has no kids yet. Me at 115, no way.

    I'm 5'4, and I weigh around 136.

    My goal is 130. 125 is even better, but 130 is a healthy weight that I feel confident at

    At just under 5'4" I hover between 128-130 pounds. This tends to be the weight I "sit at" when I don't really pay attention to what I eat, although I do cook 3 meals a day and am pretty poor at the moment so even if I don't "pay attention" to my food I know I'm not overeating because, well, I can't haha. If I had access to whatever I wanted all the time I'd probably have a harder time staying there.

    But anyway, my goal weight is around 120 pounds. I am by no means overweight at 130 and fit in my clothes fine, but I would like to get my body fat % lower. Right now I would estimate it's between 22-25% and would like it to be closer to 18-20% which is what I stayed at eons ago as a high school athlete, and back then I was closer to 120.

    But I'm not being too stressed about it. As long as I'm not going up I don't care how slow it takes to go down.

    5'4" currently weighing 168 and 150 would be optimum for me although I would still be classed as overweight.

    GW: It was 150, but the doctor said shoot for 155

    What I'd love to get to? Somewhere in the 130's someday. I think I can make it happen, just gotta take the time and realize it isn't going to happen overnight.

    Still have lots of belly fat from 3 babies in 4 years, it's not going anywhere. I rarely exercise, mostly just calorie deficit. When Summer comes I'll be more active.

    I am currently 270, I disliked my body immensely when I was in the 130s, so I'm aiming for 150s. BMI doesn't really work for me, as it never took into account muscle, I was fit and healthy at 150, so that's the goal right now.

    GW ???

    During my teen years, I used to be around 100 and had issues gaining weight. I always felt myself too skinny. I know that is something a lot of people DON'T want to hear, but it is an issue being underweight too. As I got older, I gained weight. My most happiest was when I was between 110-120, because I didn't look "super thin" or emaciated. I felt good and looked good. I am aiming between 110-120, but I am older now. So, I may feel more comfortable at 120-130. I won't know until I get there.
