    I'm 5'6 and my start weight was 142lbs back in September.. I have slowly reached my goal weight of 118lbs and am very happy with where I am now. I chose this goal weight because it was where I was happiest before having two babies. I feel comfortable and energised :)

    Wow, some of those weights seem really low to me, but good for you all if you reach it. My goal weight is 145-150 which is just find for this 45 year old. I believe I was 145 when I got married at the age of 28 so I will take it! Shortly after my husband passed away I was at 135 and just looked sickly so I will not go that far again! Good luck to everyone on reaching their goal weight!

    I am 5'5" and was in the 160's for a lot of my adult life. Getting down to 150 was like amazing. Now I am 140 and really happy where the weight is going. Want to get to 130 and see what I feel like. Never realized how much extra weight I was carrying on my small frame. 130 would be a HUGE accomplishment for me! :):) I just know I would look amazing. Heheh I am excited~~

    I'm 5"6 :) started at 161lbs, currently 135lbs and goal weight is 128lbs. However, I have been lifting weights and toning up, so I'm reconsidering my goal weight, as I'm feeling pretty good and seeing results with measurements rather than weight.

    I also haven't given myself a deadline or a goal timeframe - am just working my way steadily, and am finding that I am enjoying the journey. I didn't want to become obsessed, and wanted to do it right and sustainably. Plus I tend to be pretty hard on myself, and a deadline just equals too much stress and negative thinking for me! I decided a whole lifestyle change was needed, so I'm just chugging along and cannot believe the results I am seeing :)

    Good luck!! :flowerforyou:

    5' 4 1/2" tall and my goal is 135lbs. My body's goal however, is 138lbs :) That's about 7 pounds from now.
    I've been at between 138-140 since 2008 after losing 60-some pounds. The 7 pounds snuck on while I wasn't paying attention. :\

    I'm 5'5" and 190 now. A couple of years back I was 170 and 26% body fat. I'd like to get back to that, so that's phase 1 of my goal. Phase 2 would be even better and would be to get down to 20% body fat and be between 160 and 170. As far as clothing sizes go, I'm a size 8 now and was a size 6 before, but I don't really care about that.

    Right now I'm @ 146 lbs and going for 125-130... Also what is your time frame for your weight loss?
    I'm trying to reach my goal by September...
    My ideal is 120 lbs. I don't know if that is realistic though. I just wanted to add that I was 146 when I started. It feels like a slow road.

    My ultimate goal is 150 but would love to be 160. I have a bigger frame so anything below 150 I look sick.

    5'4.5".. My goal is 135 but ideally I'd love to e down to 125. Really just depends how I feel at that point and since I'm lifting I imagine a higher weight will be okay...

    I am currently 199lbs and my goal weight is 150lbs. I plan on accomplishing this by loosing about a pound a week and plan on achieving this goal by January 1, 2015. Anyone with a similar goal fee free to add me.

    I'm 5ft 5.5 and currently maintaining at 9stone /126 lbs, I have big boobs and a bum so I don't think I'll be able to weigh much less than that whilst exercising and staying healthy (I weighed 8.5 stone pre exercising so must have gained some muscle!)

    im 5'5'' and have a medium/large frame and an endomorph. im 155 lbs right now and ideally i would love to get down to 130. i got down to 127 once years ago and it was just too hard to maintain. i cant see myself ever really getting into the 120's with my frame.

    I'm 5"5 and a half, I'm aiming for 10 stone then I'll have a look.

    I do seem to be heavy, always have been even when i was a skinny teen. No one would believe i weighed as much as i did!

    I once was a UK size 6 due to a near nervous breakdown and i looked like i was about to die. Skinny isn't for me. Plus I'm fond of the twins and don't wanna lose them. Aiming for a slimmer curvy look.

    I'm right between 200-202. My ultimate goal is 150 also and would love to have it done by 2015 as well. I'm adding you!

    5'5" 138 - goal is 130, but I'm more concerned with how my body looks than the number on the scale.

    5'6" current weight is 180 - ideal is 160 but my body fat percentage is 22% right now so I may hit 170 and look way better than at 160
