    I'm 5'7 with a larger frame and my goal is 143. I am currently at 155. I really think how thin you look depends on your frame size. At 143 I am a size 2/4 depending on the clothes, any thinner than that and I look emaciated. Someone the same height with a smaller frame can get to 130 and still look good and not to thin.

    I'm 5'9" and would like to hit 147. This was the weight I was most of my life before my 3rd and 4th pregnancies. I've gotten down to 125, but that's just too skinny for me now.

    I started at 171. Am now at 154 (honestly I think my scale has mood swings, rather than I have weight fluctuations...) and am going for 140 - 145. I'll get to 145 and see how I feel. NO LOWER than 140 - no more losing weight just because I can!!

    My profile pict is me at 135, but Ive been to 125 and was still healthy looking, so that's my ultimate goal.

    I was thinking 165, but now I'm more thinking 150..depends on how much I feel is saggy skin when I get closer to 165. 40lbs to get there..and then.who knows..its been a long journey and just getting under 200lbs right now would be a big victory

    I'm 5'9", and I'm shooting for 135, the weight I was when I was a track runner in high school. I have a petite frame, and I'm lanky so being thin does work for me.

    Right now, I'm at 188, but started at 210.

    I'm 5'8.75 and my goal weight is 127-130. I haven't weighed that since middle school. I got down to about 143 about a year ago and wanted to lose another 10-15 pounds. I have a smaller frame and at 160 I feel chunky. Three years ago I started around 205-210 too, so I'm just thankful that I'm in a healthy weight now. The extra pounds I want to lose now are just for me and for vanity reasons.

    I'm 5'7 and a half (5'8 on a good day, LOL) but my ultimate goal would be 140 lbs but I would be happy and also maintain my weight between 140 - 150 lbs.

    I'm 5'8 and I am going for 170, but I have a very large frame. I may go lower once I get there, but for now that is my main goal. I still have a LONG way to go tho!

    Started at 180, down to 155, final goal is 150. Those last 5 pounds are so tough!

    I am almost 5'10 and my goal weight is 185, that with my build (athletic muscular build) I would be about a size 10/12. That is small enough for me. Only a Dog wants a bone and all he does is bury it....LOL. I was 160- 170 two summers ago and was too freaking thin and it was not a good look for me at Over 40. I like a softer look to my face and the rest of me. Also my thighs and butt give me shape.

    I'm 5' 7.5" and my goal has always been 150. My dream weight is 140-145, but I have no idea what would be best for my body. I've never been a normal weight so it's hard to tell what would look/feel right.

    I'm 5'8" and had set my initial goal weight on MFP at 150. I started at 185 and am now at 157, but I think I will try to keep going. I'm feeling good but I could use a lot more work as far as tone and definition. I'm pretty happy with my size right now though so we'll see. Finally fitting back into a size 8!!!

    I'm shooting for 160. I can't imagine being that weight. I don't think I've been that weight since I was "skinny" and never even thought of stepping on a scale. The first time I can remember thinking I need to lose a few was when I was at 170. I'm 4 pounds away from 170 right now. Crossing my fingers I can do it!

    Well at my thinnest adult weight I was 128(5 years ago)...WWAAAYYY to thin...at my heaviest I was 196(6 months ago)....So I went through pics of me at different stages of weight gain and Ive decided on somewhere between 145and 150. Currently I am 166 and am finally getting to a point where I am liking things about my body again. Honestly if I hit 155 ill prob. maintain there for a while. Best of Luck!
