I'm just over 5 ft. Right now my goal is to get down to 130 (max healthy BMI). I am pretty sure I'll end up aiming for 115-120ish to have some wriggle room though!

My goal is 108-110 lbs. I know this is good for me because that's what I weighed b4 I got sick 5 yrs ago. After surgeries, meds, PT, etc, it's time to get back to what feels good. Everyone is different though. Good luck! :bigsmile:

I'm 5ft 1 and my goal is 115!

I'm 5 ft. My personal goal was 125. I'm 137ish now. Lost almost 90lbs. I use to think I could get to 125, but now I don't know. It's getting harder. I get my body fat tested. I think that's what you should do to determine your goal. If I get to 125, I'll be in the "lean" catagory below normal. It's different for everyone though based on your lean body mass. I'm just a heavier 5 ft person. You may be a lighter one.

Hey Bek! I'm 5'2 and I'm aiming for 120-125 but if I can get lower that would be great too. I have thick thighs and some "junk in the trunk" so don't know if I will get much lower than that but hey we will see!!

rmhand

I'm 5'3" and my goal is 120. I think at 115 it would be hard to find clothes. Any one have tricks/favorite stores for finding professional clothes? or casual clothes that are fitted?

Thanks!

I am 5' 2" and my goal is 125lbs but if I get there I may decide to go lower depending on how long it takes me to get there and how things go. I had 44lbs to loose and almost have 25% of those down. Hopefully it continues. In high school I weighed 115lb I would love to get back there but after having three kids and getting older I don't know that that can happen. But I would be happy with 125.

beastlye

I'm 5' 0" and my goal is 100 lbs. These last 9 lbs are being pretty pesky though...

jrich6

I'm at my heaviest point. It seems to me I'm most comfortable with my body when I'm right around 112-115. I like to look strong. It's been a couple years since I've been there, but, I think this site is really going to help! Anyone with similar goals feel free to add me! Maybe we can help each other out.

bekdavis

thanks for all the replies ladies. Us little people need to stick together.

I'm 5'2 and I had lost all the baby weight after having my last child. However I went back to work at a desk job and gained. Anyways when had lost my weight I felt great at 120 but when I would drop even 3 or 4 pounds below that my face would look really thin and It was kind of a struggle packing my kids around. So this time I will be happy in the 125-120 range, but not less then that!

I'm 5' 0" and just started this in January 2011. I began at 220 lbs. I am 54 and considered morbidly obese, though I don't think I look that fat. I have a big frameand am considered an endomorph. I want to get down to about 125-130. At my age, I think that would be a safe zone to shoot for. I doubt I will ever see the 119 I used to be when I was a young woman of 20. So far lost 7 pounds but it keeps hovering at that number. I need to kick start this thing further to get more weight loss and fitness by the end of the month, I am getting very discouraged. I am glad for the moral support I have gotten from the few ladies I have met so far on here. Good luck to you too! We shorties have a bigger reach to get our weight down, it shows when we are short.

Hey, I'm 5"1 and im looking to get down to about 112-115 pounds. I always been pretty small and never had trouble keeping the extra lbs off until recently. While in university I managed to hit my heaviest point at 140 and now that I have recently finished school I really want to focus on my health, not to mention the fact that it would be pretty great to fit into my wardrobe again! Im pretty new to MFP so if anyone wants to add me so we can exchange recipes or exercise tips, please go right ahead!

Since I haven't seen 130 in 20 years...I am going for 130. I will reevaluate later. Good luck

I"m 5'2-5'3, currently 126 and looking to drop to 110. I don't want to be super thin, just toned and fit.

nic1227

I'm just shy of 5'1..even though when ever someone asks how tall I always round up to 5'1 lol

Right now I'm at 118, but I would love to be between 100-105

alyssa83202

Wow, I'm 5'6" but my goal weight is 125lbs. Reading all of these responses makes me wonder if that's too low. I know we all have different body types though, so I'll just have to see how I feel as I get closer to my goal.

I am 5 ft exact. Usually hover bk and forth over 112 lbs. Just weighed in at 102.8 lbs. Mostly toning up and making better food choices. Wont go lower than 98 lbs!

I'm 5'3" looking to get to 119 and then will adjust my weight goal when I get there

godblessourhome

4' 11 1/2", but i always lie and say 5 foot. my goal weight is 113. the bmi chart says a healthy range for me is 95-115 but i honestly don't think i could go lower than 110. i like my boobs too much. i am currently at 122 and really struggling to lose any weight at all.

I'm 5'1ish...my goal is 125-130....can't remember the last time I was that size. That would give me a grand total weight loss of a little over 100 pounds which is A-OK in my book. Got about 40 pounds to go now....
