    I'm 5'7", generally weigh between 120 and 140, though rarely at the extreme ends, currently 129, want to be 125 when I'm done and then start to work on body recomp. I might be able to gain some then, depending on how it works out. As far as 125 being too thin, I have a pretty small frame, so it works, I think. If you tend to be more sturdily built, it might be too little.

    what is a body recomp? wahoo well done on your journey so far!

    5'6 @ 125lbs, down from 144lbs (= 65kg, 7 months ago).
    Now very close to goal weight of 123.5 lbs (56kg). And no...unfortunately I am not thin yet. Still have a belly, ever so slight double chin and bigger upper arms. Nevertheless, will not lose more than another pound or two.
    Stef.

    I am sure you are thin :) have you taken measurements and progress pictures? sometimes they help more than scales! muscle is heavier than fat too so if you're working out that might be why. as long as you're healthy and happy thats fine, however i will motivate you the best way i can! you can do it! i created a group which i posted further up

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

    5' 6" CW 181 - GW 125 ...been down to 137 but somehow let the scale take a huge leap. SMH :noway: Not looking back though and kicking myself any longer...I've done it before I can do it again...and I'm not afraid to earmark 125 as my ultimate goa cause I know I can do itl! Good luck to you!!

    hey thanks so much :) good luck too! i was 135 too but then i just couldn't STOP eating pizza takeaways (my ex would always order...i know i know excuses but bad men with bad eating habits are my downfall!). i've recently left him and feel a CHANGE is due!! im moving south korea to teach english and i need to get in shape before i go for sure. I know you can do it too!

    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.

    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 :)

    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
