    When I was 5'10 I weighed 135. I have lost 3 inches in height in the last 5 yrs. So at 5'7" I am striving to be back down to that 135. If my body decide 140 would be better I would be happy with that as well.

    Right now I have it at 135, because when I was in the 140 range I was never happy and was always sucking my gut in. I don't know, I'll have to see what I look like as I go along. I'd like to have a body fat % of 20.

    I'm 5"7 1/2 my goal weight right now is 165. thats the smallest I've been at my healthiest and fit. I am a very stout muscular build. post Weight lifter & shot putter in high school. I think if I still have the flab at 165 I'll try and hit 140 possibly. good luck!

    I'm 5'8 and currently 164, 1 lb away from being in a "healthy" BMI...(that was my original goal). Highest adult weight was about 225...was 199 when I started MFP in March. I think I'd like to maintain somewhere around 150-160...that was my weight in graduate school (about 13 years ago) and I really liked how I looked then--lots of muscle. Anything lower than 150-155 and I think I'll look too skinny...

    I'm 5' 7.5" and my goal is 127lbs but I will be happy at 130 or even a little over. I have small bones and was 127 when I got married at 29 years old, and that was my best look and size. I was thin and muscular and looked very proportionate. Now I am 149, have lost 3 lbs so far. For my body being between 125 and 135 is my comfort zone and I am a size 4 or 6 at that weight, depending on how an item is made. Some tall girls look very skinny at 125 though so I think it depends on your frame. :)

    139. Right now I'm hovering around 147 and NEVER seem to be able to get under 145 but I'm gonna keep trying! Honestly if I stay at 145 forever I'll be satisfied. 139 I'll be thrilled.

    Im 5'8.5'' and would love to be at 140lbs again. I have gotten to 230 lbs after 18 months of nursing school. I have lead a very sedentary life and need to get back into it! I feel very bad that I let this happen to myself. I would work so hard on my homework that everything was neglected, including myself. I am determined though to get back down there. I didnt gain 90 pounds in that amount of time I had a head start of about 40lbs. I have a gym membership at LA Fitness, and a trainer 2 days a week. I am hoping I can do it!

    I'm 5'7.5" and I'm about 57kg (125lb I think)
    I don't weigh myself anymore as I find it dangerous to me, but once I tone up I'd like to be about 120.

    I'm just over 5'8'' and am aiming for 150lbs hopefully! Got a long way to go yet though, 51lbs still to lose. But I am over half way there now.

    I'm 5'8". I'm currently 193 and my goal is about 155. Two years ago I got down to 160 and everyone said that I was thin. I had an athletic build and I tend to carry my weight in my bootie and thighs. At 160 I usually wore a size small shirt and 10 pants. My highest weight was 210 in 2003. Unfortunately I headed back in that direction. :( I would be thrilled to be back at 160 again!

    I'm 5' 8" and I'm setting myself a BMI-suggested weight range, as I know I'll go up and down within in. Top of the range is 11st 7lbs (161lbs), and the bottom end is 9st 7lbs (133lbs). I've never been at that lower end in my life, so I'd be happy to hover between 11st and 11st 7lbs.

    i'm 5'8/5'9(I can never remember!) and My goal right now is 150.. when I started college I weighed 140, so ultimately I would like to get down there but I think I will do some re assessing at 150 before i try to lose anymore.
