I'm 5'8" and 21 years old! When I started at 169, my goal weight was 145. Now that I've hit that, I'm going for 135...but I think I might go for 130! I think that's the lowest though...0

I don't know what my goal is......I'm 5'7", and used to weigh 130.....and was REALLY SKINNY. Like TOO skinny. I think I'll be happy in another 5-6 lbs (145lbs-ish).0

The exact same thread was posted this morning:

Lots of us taller ladies around!0 -
My goal weight is 125 - almost there!!0

I'm 5'7.5". My goal was 135. I am at 131 now and lovin' it!0

Hi
I am 5'7 (what's an inch right? lol)
My max weight goal is 154, with 147lbs as my main goal.0 -
I'm 5'8" as well but bigger framed my ideal goal is 150-140... anything below 140 and I start looking like a skeleton.0
-
Mine is 155, but I've never ever been that small, so I have no idea if that is enough weight or too much or how my body will look at the end0
-
im 5'8 and weigh 177 lb. im aiming for about 155 pounds. if i lost any more i would look sick. i am naturally kinda muscular and have a medium sized frame. its really different for everybody, two people could weigh the same and look really different. good luck=)0
-
I'm at 144...........and it feels pretty good........maybe a few more pounds or just a bit more toned.........0
-
I'm 5'8 almost 5'9 my goal weight is 140-1450
-
I'm close to 5'8" and 21 years old. My first goal weight was 140 but I'm at 144 right now and want to go lower. So my goal weight is 1300
-
My ultimate goal weight is 150lbs for me, I think that's pretty ideal for someone who's 5'8" and wants a healthy look.0
-
when I was 21 with 5'8" I was always between 130 and 135, though I felt better with 135, with 130 I often got dizzy and had to fight low blood pressure. But it depends on your body, my friend was same tall but weighed 140 and looked leaner than me.0
-
I was teeny in the middle with a big chest and butt in Junior High at 135. But we never ate. At high school I was much more active but still skinny. 145. I went to college and the highest I've ever been is 192. It really shows in my face and belly, though, and I wear about the same size. I've only been a 11-14 my whole life. I'm trying to stay away from the 16 now. I think 165 is my goal weight for now.0

An inch can be a lot :laugh: :laugh:0 -
I'm 5'9" and mine is 148. It was my lowest weight in my adult life.0
-
I'm 5'9". My goal is 145 lbs. But I think it's going to need to be re- evaluated! I'm 6lbs away from my goal, and I think I'm going to want to loose more. I'm thinking 140 lbs. Not sure if I would want to go any lower than that. We will see!0
-
I'm 5 8 1/2 and I was 141 in high school and near emaciation, so the goal is 145 bc I think even if I was the same weight I'd never look that small again.0
-
I am 5'73/4" My goal is 135lbs but my real goal is to be defined and get rid of as much cellulite as possible. I want that line on the side of my thigh and i want some abs popping and amazing arms that are a bit intimidating to men. lol I also want strength so i can kick but if needed.0
-
I'm 5'8", 35 yo, and my goal is 20% body fat....weight becomes kinda meaningless when you have lean muscle mass0
-
I'm 5'8 and I thought that my goal weight was 140. I am at 150 now and can fit into a size 4 dress - I have been working with lots of weights too though so the weight comes in a smaller, tighter package
I am not sure that I will make it down to 140 without looking too thin so I am aiming for 144 now (which would be 50 lbs total) and if I get there, anything extra will be icing on the cake.
I'd say set a flexible goal, knowing that you might not have to make it all the way there to be really happy with how you look.0 -
I'm 5'9 and im aiming for 145 but I'll settle for 155!!0
-
I'm 5'8 and im 166 right now and at 164 im "normal" BMI. But my goal is 135. I have never been that thin before so I have no idea how that will look. I'm very curvey and when I was 150 people told me i was skinny all the time so 135 might be pushing it but I would like to try.0
-
I'm 5'10" shooting for 170. Though I'm more concerned with getting down to about 8% body fat than actual weight.0
-
I think 150, but I will reassess as I get close to that.0
-
I'm 5'8", 30 years old, and my goal weight is 140 lbs. my frame is a small-medium size with my shoulders and hips at a medium build but my wrists at a small build. I could try to go smaller but want to see how a toned 140 looks and feels first.0
-
I am 5'8" and currently weight 123-122. My goal weight is arou.nd 115 or 117. I have a small frame, and I dont look thin at 123, so I was hoping to get my measurments down. Right now I am at 31-26-38. {i have small hips but a big butt} I wanna get to 31-24-350
-
I'm 5'8" and 114lbs right now. Ultimately I'd like to get up to 125 at the very least, but really just as big as possible while staying lean. If I could get up to 150lbs or more with <15% body fat I'd be very happy. I know realistically that this will take years but I put on mass at a decent rate.0
