5'10" ladies what's your goal?

AlexJourneyHall

I'm going for 140-145

AJay513

I am 5'10" and right now my goal is 140

karencharron

tI just hit 155 and I am not sure how sustainable any lower would be. I will have to see. At this weight I am doing sports without issues

I think it really depends on your frame/build & should be discussed with your doctor. I'm 5'8" (feeling short right now! and my goal is 145-150 lbs. I can stay at 150, but have a very hard time maintaining 145 without a big fight.

I don't want to say large/small frame but address how much muscle I'm packing. I'm at 183 now. At this weight 3 years ago I wore a size 14/16 before losing to 142 and a size 6.
Right now I'm in a 8/10. My goal is to be very comfy back in my size 6 pants. I know I will weigh more in those size 6 pants because I'm stronger now. Who knows if I really work at this those 6s will be loose again. :happy:

The chart I have seen gives the below numbers, but it also says...these are statistical averages and not absolutes. If you're muscular, the chart may not apply to you. (I feel like I do have a muscular build.)

Height (Ft.& Inc.) Small Frame Medium Frame Large Frame
5'9" 129-142 139-153 149-170
5'10" 132-145 142-156 152-173
5'11" 135-148 145-159 155-176


Ive always thought I had a large frame, but another chart I read said to measure your wrist (mine is barely over 6 inches) and if it is exactly 6, you have a medium frame, below 6 is a small frame & over 6 is large....

I am 5'10" and started at 230 wearing a size 16 pant and XL tops... and am at 188 right now, wearing a size 8-10 and S-M tops. I am aiming for 170. For my BMI I should be between 129 & 173. Thank goodness for such a large range!!!!

Thanks so much for posting that. I thought I had a large frame but now I know. My wrist is pretty skinny looking until I measured it and it was almost 6.75"!!! I am 5'11.5" and I am currently plateaued at 177-180. At my heaviest I was at 240. My original goal was 160 but am feeling that is pretty unrealistic. I would love to be between 165-170. I started out at a size 18 and a large-xlarge shirt. I am currently a size 12 and small to medium tops. Soon I am going to start toning and hope that I will lose the little bit left on my belly and the rest on my thighs. My calves could also get a tad bit smaller. But all in all I am pretty happy where I am :bigsmile:

I'm 5' 9.75" :laugh: with a large frame, and haven't been under 200# as an adult. My long term goal is to get to the healthy range on BMI - so <175# - and see how I feel. I have my MFP goal set at 165#, I guess because I'm an overachiever.... Nearly halfway there...

ummlovelovesyou

I am thinking 150 or so is my goal (MAYBE 145). What about you??

I'm 5'9 and my goal is 160.

TheBraveryLover

I'm 5'9" and my goal is 185.

Natasha233

My goal is 172 because I am curious about a size 10 - and I think that will be a cut off. At 186 I was a size 12 all around, so I will look amazing and perfect for my frame once I get to my goal : )

My goal weight was 180 and I met that and was very happy with my Size 12 pants, Small shirts, and Size 8 dresses. I've actually gone down just another couple of pounds - I am at 177 now - and am in a 10. I don't want to get any smaller or lighter but I do want to get firmer and more fit.

**Oh, and I'm also 5'10"

inlander

160-165. I can re-assess when I get there and I've been as low as 140, but I think 160 is where my body naturally prefers to stay. I'm 190 right now and it's the first time I've been in size 14 pants in years. (:() I miss being a 10/12.

be mindful that your goal weight will also be based on your frame size! I'm 5'9" with a super small frame so 130 is a great weight for me....I topped out both of my pregnancies (1990 and 1993) at 165 pounds!

So each women will have a lot of differences.

Do some research on frame sizes before just picking a random number and love your body!

:flowerforyou:

^^^^ totally agree - to illustrate I'm also 5'9" and must have a much heavier frame as people start to tell me I look too thin below 160lbs and lowest I've ever been was about 145 in the sixth form at school! I think it's a lot better to go on clothes sizes. I've always felt great at a comfortable (UK) 14 and have thought I looked my best in clothes at this weight. Good luck

thinthought

I'm 5'10 and my entire life I was told that i was "big boned' and had a large frame and could carry weight well so sat around 180 (plus or minus 7lbs) Then one day I realized that I don't have a large bone structure like I had always been told. (Measured my wrist, neck and other indicators they suggest)-- Turns out I am small structure-- I am shooting for the lower end of the BMI and would like to be 135-140lbs

serenelake

I am right under 5'10" and my current goal is 160. I look really good, however, around 155 and if I could maintain there it would be great, but my body just liked being at 160. I stayed there for years (until I got married). I start to look sick when I get under 150 lbs because my frame is med/lg. I would love to be 160 again, but this time much firmer... The best I ever looked was around 170, but I was doing a lot of musical theater so I had to be in shape and I was TONED! I loved it. I am 195 right now, so we'll see what I feel like when I get there!

ziggy67

My goal is 160lb - this is the weight I was when I left school at 18 so realistically I don't think I could ever hope to be less than this. By the way my waist measurement is now 31" and my hips are 44"...so not sure how much more I can hope to lose on these area's.

citylights117

I'm 5'10" and my first goal is 180, once I get there I may go down to 160, maybe.
I am a medium/large frame, and I'll just have to figure out where I'm at my happiest (:

I'm 5'9" and my goal is 145-150 lbs. Any lower and it's really hard to maintain. A few times in my adult life I've dropped into the high 130's, from being stressed out, not because I was trying to lose weight, and I start to look bony, shoulder blades sticking out, head like a bobble head! And when I'm in the 150's (like now) I've got a little muffin-top, clothes a little tight, a bit too much jiggle. So 145-150 is a comfort zone for me, it tells me I'm eating right, exercising enough.

llaurall

Hi! I'm 6"0 and 150 lbs is the big dream! However even if I just reach 160-165lbs I'd be over the moon! I may have to compromise for any muscle built on the way, but I'll see how it goes.

prettywhitty

I'm 5'10 and my goal weight is 140. I have a smaller frame.

stroken96

I'm 5'9" my Dr says 175-180 but I shooting for 170-175, I'm also 52 yrs old. you can add me

Giantess

I'm 6'1 and how awesome is it that there are this many tall chicks like me in the world?!

I'm aiming for 185, as I looked really good at 175 in High School. Maybe I will go lower once I get there, but I still have that last 100 lbs to lose, so one thing at a time!

I also have a big frame.

bookworm_1213

I'm 5'11 and aiming for 145-150 Ibs, like I was 5 years ago, but if with muscle and tone I get to 160 I'll stop because I was not in shape 5 years ago when I weighed 145.

Kate6868

145 is my goal, but honestly if I get to 150 and am happy, then so be it. I was 140 when I was in my early 20s and it was a good weight for me.

itsanot

I will be delighted to see 200, but my real goal is 185 cause that is where I look goo!

itsanot

Sorry I meant good!

Ceceamanda

I've been down to 165 before and if I can get down to that again it'd be great. But 170-175 will be great.

FairuzyAmanuzy

i have a large frame and wanna keep some curves. I'm aiming for 170 but I stop before then...anything under 200 is good for me!!!

nwohler

I'm 5' 11'', I was really ahppy when I was at 190, I was about a size 12. When I started seriously working on my weight that was my goal. And right now that is my goal, but I could see going a bit further, like 175 or so. I just want to get to a point that feels good for me.

freeloaves

I'm 5'8 (so close enough ) and gw is 155
