Goal weights for 5ft 4 in ladies :)

orangesmarties

Just really curious to know where you guys would like to be, what you would see as ideal etc.
My goal weight at the moment is 120 lbs, about 8 and a half stone. I am currently about 9 and a half stone I decided this due to various online calculators, and by taking my small frame and active lifestyle into account. I love to run really long distance, so the less weight I'm carrying, the better. However, I don't want to get too skinny and lose muscle mass, and I don't think I really could do that and enjoy life either. I'm all about the balance!
Also! As a side note, what diets/methods are you employing to get there?

Patrice120

My goal weight is 120. My lowest ever was 123 and I was not too skinny at all. I used to want to get to 115 but am trying to be realistic.

zombie130

5'4.5 here:) my goal weight is 130 for starters. once i get there ill see if i can get lower. if i can then the lighter the better but dont want to go below 17% body fat. the goal is to stay strong and healthy for riding! i also have a small frame. my diet is what i will be eating for the rest of my life so i eat what i want while making healthy choices(except for the occasional slice of cheesecake haha) but i make it work. i eat multigrain breads and veggies and lots of fruit, mostly turkey and fish but a burger every now and then along with avocado, nuts and olive oil, the basic healthy choices really.

120 for me. I've been 125-130 in the past and think that is a great weight, but i always still had a little pudge. I plan on increasing calories and putting on muscles when I reach 120.

I am 5'4 and my goal weight (for now) is 150 lbs. I am currently 395 so 150 is on the higher end of my goal because I have so much to lose in order to get there. When I get down to that size… I will see what I have to work with!

Good luck ladies

diannacya

140. I was there pre pregnancy and felt like that was perfect for me. Now I got 55 pounds to lose.

ashleydawndill

125 for me. I'm not too concerned about the weight though, since I know as I build muscle that'll weigh more than the fat. I'll judge my progress based more on measurements and looks

WW_Jude_V2

My goal weight is about 135. I have to be a little cautious about going too low at my age (55 next month) as my face starts to look somewhat gaunt.

I'm at 132-ish right now and into week two of maintenance mode.

koaliebear195

I'm 5'3" but my ultimate goal is around 122. Maybe lower, but I wanna be strong and lean so possibly around 130. I have a range, so I'll see when I get there I guess! Goal right now is 165 lbs by the end of the summer

vmlabute

I'm 5'3" (close enough, right??) and my goal is 125. I have a muscular build and have been a heavy weight lifter so 125 is very ideal and fit for me I'm currently 135 because of stress and poor food choices but now I'm eating clean and working out 2 hrs/5 days/week. I also run quite a bit and don't like running with that extra 10lbs

serafinelaveaux

When I was 150 I was in a size 9-11. I think the smallest I ever was at this height was 130 and size 6-8. I'd be thrilled to see 150 again and that's my goal. But when I reach it, who knows, may try to take off another 20.

120lbs or 25" waist

Gwennie9476

I'm 5' 3 1/2" and my goal weight is 180. I am at 286 right now. Started at 320. I will never be within "normal",but I will be really happy with myself at that weight.

kimberlyblindsey

5'5" here, and my goal is 115. I have a small frame and working on vanity/aesthetic goals, i.e. The elusive visible abs.

hastingsmassage

I am 180 lbs now and I do feel ok, I think 170 lbs would be nice but I am not in the hurry.

iheartinsanity

5'4 with a large body frame, and the healthy weight charts have always said between 136-151. I've always been at the higher end because of strength training, and I run a lot to keep the body fat low as I can. My "goal" is 135, but I know I have to go to some really drastic measures to get there. So for me, I'd be happy at 140. It's right in the middle (low middle) of the healthy range. Keep in mine if you lift...eventually down the line you'll have to accept the bigger # on the scale, but the smaller waist and more fit body that comes with it.

Ffiffifab

I'm 5"4 and currently around 207 lbs. I have quite a curvy bottom and big boobs and a tendency to gain weight easily so it's a challenge for me to lose weight at all. Aiming at reaching 168 lbs for now as it was my lowest weight a couple of years ago. I can only dream about losing more weight than that but I have to be realistic haha

tucky3203

My goal weight is 150#. I have always been a bigger girl and even when very active growing through my teen years I had difficulty with keeping my weight below 160#. I do not think I will ever be in "normal" weight zone, but onederland would be amazing to achieve. I started at 265 and am down to 254.5 so we will see where we go from here. Best of Luck

Same! With running & strength training, currently at 140, with hope of trying to get to 135.

itsbasschick

my goal weight is currently 145, as i hope to add a lot of muscle. things may change when i hit that weight, but that's what i'm shooting for right now.

Kelley528

I'm 5'4 and I am at my goal of 135. I have stayed here for a few months now. I do not want to get any smaller for my body type. The past 3 weeks I have been exercising to tone up, not lose anymore weight. I wear between a size 2-4 (US).

carlsoda

My goal weight (and I was there 2 years ago) was 145. I was in a size 8 and felt great. I have/had lots of muscle so probably weight a little heavier then most 5'4" gals out there

Now I just need to get back down there again!!!

taramaclaren

I am 5'3 - 5'4 depending on the day and doctor measuring me!

Everyone has their own weight and aesthetic goals - at my highest weight of 147 I was very unhappy.

I am at 128 lbs now and feeling much healthier, but I will continue to push until I hit 115 and then reassess how I look/feel. In my head I aim to be 110 but I want to be realistic. I would never compromise my health for a weight goal!

Lori_Gallant

150 (maybe 140) is my goal weight. I started out weighing 247. I'm at currently at 230. I have weighed 119 before and it was WAY too skinny for me!! I think I look pretty healthy at 150.
GOOD LUCK on your journey!!! :happy:

kids183

Hi! I'm 5' 4". I started my journey in January at 215 pounds. I'm now currently at 177. I'm wearing size 10 (was at size 16 in the beginning).

I had put my goal weight to 150 pounds. I'm no spring chicken and haven't been 150 pounds since I was 20 (I'm almost 37). But to be quite honest, I've been so comfortable at size 10. So, I haven't been pushing myself as much as I have been.

I have 4 children and gained much of my weight from my pregnancies. I've also been trying to work on toning because I have an access of skin (mostly in my belly area). I'm not fond of the thought of being a "skinny" older lady with hanging skin...

That's my story!

Always looking for new friends

bfanny

I'm 5'4" 135.6 lbs, when I was 180 I just wanted to get to 150 then to the healthy BMI 145 then to 140, now to 132/130 my body frame is so small at 140 I can wear a size 6/4 at first I didn't matter what I ate as long as I stayed under my allowance (1600) but now I'm eating way better, I have to, to get rid of the "last 10" (harder) and for life, right?
My exercise is 6 days a week, cardio 4+2 days of lifting, I'm planning when I get to my "ideal" weight to lift more and do less cardio

jennahaines108

My goal is 135 lbs. But if I ever manage to get there, I might go over 125.

hbgirl85

I'm 5'4", but I'm 47 and I've had two kids, so if I could get to 160-170 lbs.I would be very pleased. I haven't weighed 125-130 pounds since before my kids and post kids, I was able to maintain 165 lbs. healthfully and wearing a size 8-10.

Wolfhuntress2002

Good Luck! Keep Rocking~

Wolfhuntress2002

Currently my weight fluxgates between 180 - 172. I have had GI issues for over 2 years and currently in process to have surgery. Dr. put me on a gluten free diet to see if it helps and started Friday. I also started Thrive a week prior when they told me I had to have surgery and since starting it and the diet have notices a big change in my energy levels, GI issues and all around moods. I am feeling better, energized and excited~! I started working out at home again and seem to be able to workout longer than before. I would love to be 120-130; but current goal to start is 140-150 and then I will bump it up.

icck

I'm 5'5 and just shy of 200lb, and currently I'd like to get to around 170lb then see where I want to go from there. That takes me out of "obese" category on a basic BMI chart so seems a reasonable goal to start off with. I'm not so fussed on an exact figure though, more focused on how I feel and any inches lost.
I'm strength training and seeing huge progress both in terms of my size and health, even though I've barely lost any weight. Swapping fat for muscle and all that. :bigsmile:
