    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...

    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).

    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.

    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 end

    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=)

    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 130 :)

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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!

    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.
