5'3 / 5'4 Women; Goal Weight

I'm 5' 3.5" and my goal weight is currently 124 because when I started using MFP I thought a 20lb loss was a good goal. The highest weight I saw on a scale was 156 but that wasn't my highest weight, I just stopped stepping on a scale. I honestly don't know what my goal weight is. I will probably adjust my goal down to 118-120 simply because I remember being happy with my size at this weight but as I get closer to my goal I also care less about the number. I want to lower my body fat % and I want to increase my lean body mass. I want to increase my fitness level and endurance. I want to be strong. I don't know how much I will weigh when I obtain the body composition and physique I am striving for.0

I'm 5'3" and my goal weight is 135-145. I am naturally athletic and build muscle fairly easily. My best shape was at 135 pounds. I wore size 5 pant and small shirt at that time.0

I'm 5'3" and my goal weight is 140. Check out www.mybodygallery.com
You can search for others at your height and weight (or proposed goal weight) and see how others look. Not everyone carries their weight the same way!0 -
I'm 5'4". I have my goal set to 130, but I am generally happy as long as I'm under 135 any my favorite jeans still fit.0

I m 5'4 and am happy as long as I am in the 150's. WW says for me to weigh 145 but 155 is fine with me. I started at 208. I think it depends on different things like I don't have those really skinny legs or arms some people have.0

I was initially shooting for 130, but at 143, I'm pretty happy with what I see. I'm still dropping body fat so we'll see where I end up, but I don't live and breathe by that number anymore.
Oh yeah, I'm 5'3"0 -
Hey!!! I am 5'3 and my Goal weight is anywhere from 130-140. My CW is 195 and my starting weight was 245(the heaviest I have ever been and I was pregnant). My pre-pregnancy weight was 170. I have been bouncing up and down with my weightloss but I am SERIOUSLY going to get down to at least 140. Add me!!! I love all my 5'3/5'4 gals!!!0

I'm 5'4", CW 155, and my goal is somewhere around 145ish. I'm very curvy, my current measurements are 38, 35, 41. I'm not looking to become really thin, just healthy and keep my curves0

How in the world do y'all have such low pants sizes? I don't really mind having a high number---I wear size 12 at 5'3" and 147 lb, but I am just very surprised at all these women wearing size 6, 8 pants....my size 12 looks like it's here to stay as I head toward my goal of 140. (I'll see if I want to get to 135 and subsequently 130 later.)0

thanks for all the replies so far its great to hear from people with similar aims - keeps me motivated!!!0

I am 5'3 and CW 163.5. My goal is to weigh 135-145, but at this point I really do not care about the scale. I would just love to lose inches and body fat. I am a curvy girl and I would like to keep the curves. I am between a size 8-10 right now but would like to be between a 6-8 size.0

I am just at or below 5'4. My highest weight was 178.8 fen 2011. I started a weightloss journey then but by feb 2013 I was only able to lose & KEEP OFF 12 of them. So started Feb 2013 at 166. Today I am at 129.6. My original goal was 128.8 (50lbs lower than my heavies)... but now I have goal set at 125 and when I get there reevaluate if I want to go for 120. I am not sure about that.
Good luck on your journey. You are gonna do great!0 -
It took from Aug 2012 to present. I did get pregnant in 2012 as well, but was still able to lose the weight.0

Oh and at 166lbs I was a size 12/14. At 129.6 I am a 2/4.0

I am 5'3''
SW: 225 lbs
CW: 175 lbs
My goal is 130 lbs, but as I get closer I guess I will see what I am happy with.0 -
I am 5'3" and currently 180 lbs. My highest weight was about 196. My goal is 140, but I would love to be 130ish if my body looks good at that weight. I put on muscle quickly and tend to look smaller than my weight--the last time I was 130 lbs I wore a size 2-4.
I am looking for friends for mutual fitness encouragement; ladies, please feel welcome to add me.0 -
I'm 5'3 SW 212 CW 188 I would like to see myself around 145-150 but lately it seems like I haven't been able to lose any pounds :-( but I'm still working towards my goals I am able to see a change in pictures and inches but no weight loss0

I'm just about 5'4" and would like to get down to 134. I started at 268, so that would put me at half my previous size, and it's pretty much right in the middle of my recommended weight/BMI. I'm at 152 right now, and it's going so slow! I'd like to be a size 8. I've never been that size, even on the way up, so we'll see what happens as I get closer.0

5'3 and currently 158, trying to get down to 135, and then we'll see if I want to continue down to 125/130. I remember being 120 in high school and felt GREAT. My highest ever was 165 around February of this year, and I still remember when 150 was my all-time high... sadly I packed on the last extra 20 pounds just in the past 2 years. I still find it funny that I look forward to 145 again, when that used to be my dreaded "fat weight" in middle school before I got to 120 in high school. BTW now I'm 27.0
