    I am 5ft 7 and aiming to get to 140 as my goal. 125 would be very thin wouldn't it? When I was 140lb before I felt comfortable and my face was starting to look a bit gaunt .

    125 is still in the healthy BMI range, but I know for me it would be way too thin. I start to look really gaunt when I fall below 145.

    Feel free to add me as a friend if you guys want. I am currently maintaining, but am willing to help when I can. I try to stay between 145 and 150.

    Height: 5'7
    SW: 210
    GW: 150
    CW: 148

    it depends on your body shape really, like where you lose weight from. my face is a baby face so i have lots of fat there - chubby cheeks for daaaays! good luck babe, youve done so well so far WOW over 60lbs lost!

    Hi! 5'7" (well, maybe a smidge under), 19 years old, currently 120 lbs. I'm a yoyo-er, so I know what it feels like to be up there, and right now I'm trying to figure out how to make (the right) changes into habits, maybe gain a little in muscle. I'll add you!

    i yo-yo so much! i can't maintain! i need to get healthy instead of thinking DIET, which is easy cause i love vegatables, takeaway is just easier to order (haha so lazy!) i would love to get muscle too :)

    @naught to sixty: recomposition -- lose fat, gain muscle without changing weight much. Toning, in other words.

    oh ok im still a massive n00b in this arena you ladies have lots to teach me :)

    Honestly, I think i wouldn't care so much about the hugeness of it if I didn't have so much cellulite. Yoyo dieting is the worst thing a girl can do to her figure.

    I am 5'7".

    SW: 183
    CW: 163
    GW: 150

    I set my goal weight for 150 because I was happy at that weight a couple of years ago. Once I reach 150 I will decided how much more, if any I want to lose. I have a fairly large frame. Right now my ribs are starting to stick out some and I am 13lbs from my goal.

    I am always looking for friends to connect with for motivation. Please feel free to add me. :D

    i think i read somewhere the cellulite was invented by advertising companies...i think it was QI (british tv show)?? i don't pay attention to that but i DO have stretch marks from when i was 14-16 and just ate my feelings & hormones away. big scar right across my belly, if it was from having a baby it would at least be my tiger stripes i got for my babies, but no, its just from crying into packets of doritos when i felt like "no one understands me" haha! :laugh:

    Hi, I'm 5'7" and 53 years old. Back in April 2014 I weighed 154, In June I weighed 144 and when I joined My Fitness Pal. Today I weighed 135, my original goal was 130 lbs., my new goal is to be 120 lbs. The hardest part is omitting the sugar from my diet and watching my carbs.

    well I am 152 in my profile pic...but I am at goal...wouldn't want to weigh 125lbs...that is way to slim for me....puts a woman of my stats as the low end of "normal" anything below that for a woman who is 5 ft 7...well that is considered underweight...
