    Im 5'8 ... when i started (at 189) i was aiming for 165 and it looked like far away and hard!! im at 175 now and im thinking I could go to 155...I don't have a petite frame ((latina)) and I have big legs so I think if I go any lower u will only see my head! (that's what my brother tells me)...lOl!!

    I'm 5'9... I don't have a weight goal but I do have a body image in mind that I'm striving for. I want to be really strong and very lean.... I'm not far off. I currently weigh 134 but I'm very thin.... Muscle weighs more than fat and I definitely want to be strong over being skinny and weak!

    i'm about 5'7ish but my goal is between 125 and 130... 130 is easier to maintain than 125, but i like to push my body to the limits! so we shall see!!!

    I'm another 5'7 & 3/4", lol!

    When I got married, I was about 140. I was happy with my body for the most part then, and I would kill for it now. Ha! I'd like to get back there and then reevaluate from that point.

    This journey started at 184. I'm currently, and impatiently, 174.

    I got to 140 the year before last and although at the time I didn't realise it that was good for me (i still insisted i wasn't happy with my weight then!!). God how I wish I was back at this weight now!!!

    I did lose a few pounds more probs 136 but friends started telling me that wasn't a great look. I have quite prominent chest/collarbones.

    I'd like to be 140 for my holiday and then ultimately 133. My heighest would have been 180+ and I'm probably around 160 (not a fan of the scales!)

    That is 143 - 154lbs.

    I am 5'7 1/2 and aiming for 72kg - 158lbs this just gets me into a healthy BMI once I am there I will see how I go.

    I am 178lbs at the moment and take a US 10-12 (that sounds so much better than UK 14-16).

    OMG thank god this thread exists!!! i feel I have to constantly explain on another forum that I am 5ft8 and therefore my goal of 154 is good for me!!!! People must think I am mad.

    I've always been around 160lbs ever since I was in my early 20's (now 34) but I still want to get down to 154. I'd be super duper happy with that.

    154 is my ultimate goal but I'll see how I feel/look at around 158 or so. I've a twin sis and she is under 11stone and looks skinny for her height as she is about 1 inch taller than me. My husband says she looks older than me and part of that is down to her weight. I've a much more sporty physique than her.

    Besides, I'm terrifiied (as is my husband) that if I lose too much weight, my nice boobs will go too!!!!!!!!!!

    I'm 5'7... and 53 years old. I can't remember the last time I was below 200, so I'm shooting for One-derland first.
    I think I would be comfortable, and be successful at maintaining around 160-169.

    Back to 130-132 I was 2 yrs ago. It was a hard weight to maintain so I'd be happy with 135. It's an 8lb goal that's been going on for 2 years now :(

    My dream weight is 150 pounds but I'd be happy with 170...who am I kidding I'd be happy with 190 right about now.

    Ha ha! Amen!

    I've never been a small girl - ever - and I don't think I would ever be near what I'm "supposed" to be unless I got gravely ill. I think it just ranges on your body type and activity level. For me, I'd like to see what 185 looks like and then work from there.

    Size 8/10... I've been over weight for so long, I'm not sure what I would look like at a number weight. I'm more into toning.

    I am currently 193 and my pie in the sky goal is 130 which is what I weighed in college...when I thought I was fat (I wanna smack that dumb me). I am taking a little bit at time. So my next goal is 160 and I will decide it I want to try maintaining or continue losing.

    my ultimate goal would be in the healthy range of the BMI chart. Around 150 pounds for me would be awesome. But as of right now, I would just love you be under 200 again...
